START YOUR DAY RIGHT

Drakes understands the importance of offering a wholesome, appealing range of options to entice everyone to enjoy a good breakfast. We source the best possible fresh ingredients from local farms and producers to ensure top quality and great flavours in all our options. Fruit and nut granola, marmalade and preserves are made in-house and served alongside homemade muffins, freshly baked pastries, a range of cereals, live yogurts, freshly squeezed orange juice and bottomless coffee/tea from our Buffet Table. A selection of cooked breakfasts are also available, which includes Vegan, Vegetarian and gluten free options as well as Breakfast Specials which change daily.

We are open for all meals to non-residents as well as our hotel guests so everyone is welcome. We request advance notice for groups of 6+ people, otherwise just walk in!

If you'd like to combine Breakfast with a Meeting or for groups looking for some extra privacy, our Private Dining Room is available for 6 to 12 guests - there is no additional charge for booking this room.
