Coffee on the shop floor

The café is not a separate room. Ocean Avenue is one open space: the counter, the rails and the art all share it, under the same arched front and the same timber ceiling. You can browse with a coffee in hand.

It opens at 7am, an hour before the rest of the floor — so there is a quiet hour with the art and the new arrivals before the boutique proper is trading.

The walls are hung as a gallery and the work changes. It is on the same walls as the clothing, so there is nothing extra to walk into.
