The General Lake Tyers Beach — Restaurant in Victoria

An awesome place for brunch - twice! This gorgeous cafe is located down near Lake Tyers Beach and it seriously has it all! We visited a couple of weeks ago but the chef was unwell (meaning there wasn’t a full menu on offer) so we grabbed a breakfast roll and bacon and egg croissant. The food and service was so good that we decided to visit again when the chef was back on deck and we are so glad that we did! This time we both decided on the Chilli Prawn Scramble and the dishes were so good that we are still talking about them! You can always tell when a chef uses premium ingredients as it’s always a flavour sensation! In addition to the great food, the staff here are so friendly and really attentive. The atmosphere is relaxed and so much attention has gone into the decor that this place could easily be located in Melbourne. That said, the vibe is really casual and there is even a downstairs / outdoor area if you have a bigger group or just want to dine al fresco. Would definitely recommend this cafe - I know that we will be back and will be revisiting anytime we are...

One of my favourite cafes when my partner and I visit Lake Tyres (which is 7km from lakes Entrance) is called "The General."

Located near the end of Lake Tyres Beach Rd, this cosy café has a warm and inviting atmosphere that makes it the perfect spot to grab a cup of coffee or a quick bite to eat.

The menu offers a range of options to satisfy any craving. Everything is made fresh and with what I found to be high-quality ingredients. They also have a good selection of desserts which I found to be perfect for a mid-day treat.

The staff at The General are friendly and welcoming, making my every visit to this café feel like catching up with old friends. They are knowledgeable about their offerings and are happy to make recommendations or customize orders to fit dietary restrictions.

The combination of delicious food and warm hospitality make it a must-visit for me every time I am in the area, but don’t take my word for it, give it a go yourselves.

Now for the customer dad joke

Superb place! We spent several days on Lake Tyres and kept going to this wonderful cafe. Everything we had there was of an excellent quality and taste. Can especially recommend savory croissants and scones, and the unbelievably tender carrot tart. And of course, coffee! And homemade roasted in honey musli with yogurt and fresh berries!.. well, you’d better go and try it yourself: everything they sell and make has a personal touch to it. Everything they use is from the best local producers (mmm, the honey! Mmm, the rhubarb jam!)… and of course, the friendliest personnel and the impeccable service add to the impression (plus the place has been recently renovated - so very clean and cozy)… A real find 350 km from Melbourne - we will...
