About The Front Page Cafe

This South Plympton strip-mall staple roasts its own beans and serves serious morning fuel with lightning speed. Regulars count on the kitchen hitting top gear during peak hours, landing hot lattes and plates at tables in minutes. Breakfast covers everything from breakfast fry-ups and bacon-and-egg Turkish rolls to avocado smash, while the afternoon shift fires up the wood-oven for pizzas with proper foldable crusts. Weekend crowds roll through without penalty, thanks to a strict no-Sunday-surcharge policy on the register.

  • In-House Coffee Roasting: Green coffee beans roasted on-site ensure fresh espresso daily, with retail bags available to take home.
  • Wood-Fired Pizza Oven: Hand-stretched pizzas bake in the dedicated wood oven for lunch and dinner service.
  • No Sunday Surcharge: Weekend dining comes without weekend price hikes, leaving off Sunday surcharges completely.

    An authentic wood-fired oven produces crisp, foldable pizzas that provide a standout lunch and dinner centerpiece.
