Most people go out for lunch on Christmas Day, and particularly if they do not want to cook at home. However, I have sometimes been invited out for dinner as there are generally two sides of the family who children visit, and they also include me! It, therefore, makes sense that if you are going out for dinner to have a breakfast rather than a lunch!
However, this is not so easy as I phoned many of the cafes that I know and like, and none of them are open for Christmas breakfast or brunch. This list is therefore still some of my favourites but most are larger establishments and many of the restaurants have buffet for breakfast, which is great for someone like me, who has trouble choosing what to eat - it saves me having to decide what to pick - I just pick most of it!
Not as many restaurants are open for brunch as for lunch, however if you and your family are early risers, breakfast is an alternative option you may like to look at. The following are my choices where I know the food is always very good:
1. INDIANA COTTESLOE BEACHThis iconic restaurant right on the beach has spectacular views and is renown for its good food. They will be having a buffet breakfast on Christmas Day from 7 am to 10 am.
The cost of this brunch includes a large range of buffet breakfast options, tea and brewed coffee (barista coffee is available for purchase on the day).
If you have any dietary requirements, please note that all allergens will be noted on the menu and buffet labels, however, make sure to advise them when making your booking.
