The Belle General

Stopped in for lunch after a walk along the coastal trail. Great food with an excellent range of gluten free meals and cakes available. Friendly staff and dog friendly seating outside. Recommended.

This is a really lovely spot. It feels like a local neighbourhood cafe with a charming and friendly atmosphere. Great loose-leaf tea and homemade muffins, and lots of smiles and personal engagement. I have a hard time in cafes where the music is foreground, and they were cheerful in adjusting the volume and style of music.

ALLPRESS coffee. Was really good. Busy cafe. Friendly staff

Wanted to treat myself for my birthday. First my order was wrong, and then the correct one was completely burnt and inedible. Happy birthday to me!Food: 1/5

Late breakfast at Ballina: The Belle General is a quirky and alternative cafe: beach bohemiana. We both had "Something Healthy with Salmon" which was absolutely beautiful, even the kale! It was a treat to enjoy it with m'lady. Highly recommended.

Absolutely love this cafe! They have loads of gluten free options and omg the vegan Mexican tacos and sweet potato fries are AMAZING. Highly recommend

It’s a very cute little cafe BUT the avocado on toast flavour was weird we did not like it , it was fresh food so nothing about not being fresh just the flavour and ingredients seem a bit cheap . The staff was super friendly and it’s a nice location just across the beach .

Vegan lasagna was very yummy! I'm not sure what almond milk they use for coffee, but I couldn't drink it. So don't recommend that. Husband said his burger was good and coffee was ok. I also got the vegan banoffee pie take away and had too much coconut cream. Needed more caramel and banana.

Great coffee and pastries, menu looks good but we just had takeaway. Very busy.Food: 5/5

The breakfast tacos were basically life changing!!!! Best Breaky I’ve had in a long time… the coffee was also exceptional. The music was pumping early 2000s which I personally could barely restrain myself from singing along to..much to the dismay of my partner who was not enjoying that part of the experience at all…. Anyways it was amazing, as a born and bred Melbournite I can be quite fussy. Love this place!
