Our Story

Right in the heart of Parklakes, The Local was built around one simple idea — community.

A place where everyone feels welcome. Where families drop in after a day at the park, neighbours turn into regulars, and regulars turn into friends. It’s relaxed, it’s familiar, and it’s exactly how a local spot should feel.

We’ve kept the food honest and approachable — brunches worth getting out of bed for, hand-stretched pizzas, stacked burgers, and easy snacks to share. Whether it’s your morning coffee, a casual lunch, or a few drinks in the afternoon, there’s always something here for you.

And as the day rolls on, so does the atmosphere — specialty coffee giving way to craft beers and cocktails, with the same easygoing vibe from morning through to evening.

At the end of the day, it’s not just about what’s on the plate — it’s about the people who walk through the door.

This is more than a café, more than a bar.

This is your local.
