Little Olly’s is a bright spot on Frankston South’s beachfront, serving up much more than just coffee. This café thrives on its connection to the local community, drawing in early risers and beachgoers who appreciate strong coffee paired with the casual rhythm of coastal life. Sitting just steps from the foreshore, the aroma of fresh brews mingles with the salt air, making morning waits feel more like a pause to soak in the bay vibe than a hassle.

Visitors often find themselves lingering in a small huddle by the counter or outdoors, where friendly staff quickly become familiar faces and even remember names—a sign of the café’s role as a neighborhood meeting point. The lineup can stretch, especially on busy mornings or holidays, but the attentive team and steady flow of excellent coffee keep patience in check.

Beyond the coffee, Little Olly’s offers simple treats that complement a beachside break—brown sugar cookies and almond croissants come highly regarded among locals looking for a bite with their brew. The vibe here leans quietly celebratory, with smiles and relaxed chatter creating a calm backdrop that feels both familiar to longtime Peninsula residents and like a comforting discovery for visitors.

This café suits anyone who values a genuine local touch alongside their caffeine fix: regulars escaping for a midday reset, families out for a casual snack, or travelers tracing their way along the foreshore who want a pause filled with good coffee and the occasional nod from Carl and the team. Early mornings are especially lively, but any time spent here has a way of grounding you in the simple, steady pace of Frankston South’s beachside community.

Little Olly's has been the saving grace for many locals over the course of 2020-2021. A pillar of the caffeine community and place for many to catch up. The coffee is great, and always served with a smile. The wait can be on the longer side due to the popularity, but always worth the wait.

This is a little beach gem for the local community! Great coffee and such a nice atmosphere. It’s been only a few weeks , and staff remembered my name. Impressive (!) given how busy they get in the mornings! Often a small huddle of people in mornings waiting leisurely for their coffee /snack order and it’s a pleasant wait as you soak in the bay vibe and salt air right across the beach. What more can you ask for to start your day. Lovely staff and service and good coffee. So glad to have you in South Frankston! Xx

Best coffee on the peninsula so far, views are a bonus. Carl & Team remembers most of their customer names and you can't go wrong about this place. Wait times could be bit longer on holidays. P.s: Their Almond croissants are the best

I went here for the first time today, the workers had a very nice attitude and greeted me nicely. The cookies, tarts and croissants are very fresh and delicious. I would go again, a very nice place
