Pilgrims Cronulla

Pilgrims sits on Surf Road in Cronulla, the popular beachside hub of Sydney's Sutherland Shire, near the beach. A much-loved plant-based cafe, it's earned a strong reputation for its quality, flavour-packed vegetarian and vegan fare — the kind of relaxed, feel-good spot that's become a genuine favourite for a wholesome, satisfying bite near the sea.

The appeal is that combination of genuinely good, satisfying plant-based food, good coffee and a relaxed, easygoing atmosphere in a great Cronulla location near the beach, ideal for a wholesome breakfast, a healthy lunch or a casual catch-up. Quality vegetarian and vegan cooking done well has a broad, enthusiastic following, and Pilgrims has clearly won over both locals and visitors.

With a 4.5 rating from more than 650 reviews, it's clearly hitting the mark. Menus, opening hours and offerings change with the seasons, and a popular Cronulla cafe gets busy on weekend mornings and over summer, so it's worth checking current details before a special trip — though for a wholesome bite and a good coffee near the beach, it's often just a matter of dropping in at Pilgrims in Cronulla.
