Loft is located in an elevated terrace on Byron Bay’s Jonson Street (in the original Hog’s Breath Cafe space), serving a menu that is all about snacking and sharing, with a genuine focus on local produce and sustainability. Loft also boasts a substantial drinks offering, underscored by vibrant cocktails (we’re looking at you, chilli mezcal negroni), craft tap beers, and a wine list with a respectable lean toward organic and biodynamic producers. Choose from the deli or oyster bar, or opt for snacks like the crispy-prawn milk bun or the pressed duck-leg schnitzel sandwich with caramelised onion jam and pickle on soft white bread. There are also larger plates like fresh ceviche and roasted free-range pork jowl with spiced pear. Sips in the sunshine? Yes please.
