Just b. Breakfast at Alf Resco's
Breakfast at Alf Fresco's Cafe
This place is legendary, and for good reason. A firm staple of your Dartmouth experience. Warm, welcoming and possibly the best breakfast /brunch/ lunch menu in Dartmouth. Alf Resco Café is a local gem you won’t want to miss. Tucked away just a short stroll from your Just b accommodation, walk along the waterfront, and just by the lower ferry, you’ll find Alf’s (as it’s affectionately known).
Opening Times:
Open every day from 7am to 2pm, Alf Resco is all about early starts and lazy brunches. Whether you’re heading out on a boat, walking the coast path, or just easing into holiday mode, it’s the perfect place to fuel up!

Whats on the Breakfast menu?
Breakfast at Alf’s is served until 2pm, so there’s no need to rush! Expect a mix of hearty and wholesome options, all made fresh to order. Some favourites include:
The Alf’s Full Breakfast – a proper plateful with locally sourced bacon, sausages, eggs, and all the trimmings
Avocado & Eggs on Sourdough – a fresh, modern classic
Breakfast Baps – ideal if you’re on the go
Granola & Yogurt Pots – lighter, but still satisfying
Plus, there’s a delicious selection of pastries, homemade cakes, and a variety of coffees, teas, and smoothies
They also cater for veggies and offer gluten-free options, so there’s something for everyone.
The Vibe
Alf Resco is known for its friendly, chatty atmosphere. You’ll likely be greeted with a smile and maybe even a conversation or two with locals or fellow travelers. The café has a laid-back, community feel — no table service here, you order at the counter, but that just adds to the charm. The interior is cosy and quirky, and there’s often a gentle buzz of conversation and the comforting aroma of fresh coffee in the air.
Extra Perks
If the sun’s out, grab a seat outside and watch the world go by. Dogs are welcome too, so feel free to bring your four-legged friends along.
Final Thoughts:
Alf Resco Café is the kind of place you’ll want to return to — whether it’s for the food, the coffee, or just the friendly faces. It’s a true taste of Dartmouth hospitality and an ideal spot to start any day.
Local tip: It can get busy, especially in peak season, so arriving early is a good idea — but even if there’s a queue, it’s worth the wait!
