(36 Reviews)

The Daily Grind Cafe sits quietly on Silverdale Street, offering a straightforward spot for locals and visitors to enjoy a reliable coffee break or casual bite. The modest size of the space lends itself to an intimate, cozy feeling where friendly baristas—often the owners themselves—greet regulars and newcomers with genuine warmth. It feels like a community hub where people often stop by for their morning flat white or an afternoon catch-up over a cheese scone or mint slice, both staples that reflect the home-baked, made-on-site approach customers appreciate.

The cafe’s atmosphere leans into a relaxed, unhurried vibe, making it a comfortable pick for solo coffee drinkers keen on a quick caffeine fix or those settling in with a pastry and casual chat. Mid-mornings tend to be livelier as locals pop in to grab their usual—a well-crafted flat white stands out consistently—and browse the cabinet filled with fresh treats. The service is attentive without feeling rushed, and the cafe’s neat, tidy surroundings add to its approachable charm.

If you’re passing through Silverdale on a weekday, the Daily Grind’s welcoming, down-to-earth nature makes it easy to slot into your routine, whether it’s grabbing a takeaway flat white before work or lingering a bit longer over a muffin or scone with a friend. It’s not about trendy flair or elaborate menus, but rather everyday quality and a friendly corner that makes sense in this community.

The best coffee and cake in the area. I visited today for the first time, staff were friendly and accommodating and the place was clean and tidy. I had a flat white and a chocolate and banana muffin. It was by far the best muffin I’ve ever had and coffee was wonderful. I will return

One of the cosy and beautiful coffee shops I have been in Silverdale. I had Soy Flat white with honey and Date Scone and it was lovely. The Service as well are excellent. They always smile and the energy of all the staffs and the owner is very nice. I love their music as well as it compensates their aesthetic vibe.

Amazed the flat white at the first sight and the first sip! Its roasted aroma, temperature and the ratio of milk to coffee definitely made it one of the BEST flat white I've ever had!!! Thanks so much for brightened up my day!
