Book Mothers Day Here

A community icon reborn,

just steps from the pier.

Before café culture, there was the corner shop. We’re bringing that magic back, with better beans, bigger flavours, and a whole lot more heart.


Reimagined with a splash of Art Deco glamour and a nod to the classic Aussie milk bar, The Corner of Altona is more than a café. It’s your local everything place, from school runs to seaside brunches, sunset smoothies to catered celebrations. Whether you're a cyclist grabbing a post-ride toastie or a mum catching up over cake, you're always welcome here. 'The Corner of Altona'  is where beach walks begin, birthdays are celebrated, and friendships are brewed over great coffee.

Celebrate Mum, The Corner way!
