Great food with excellent service to match it. Will definitely make sure I visit again soon.

We all enjoyed our food. The prawn and crab linguine and the seafood bouillabaisse were particularly good.
The service was perfunctory, impatient and paid absolutely no attention to the experience of the diner.
The floors were filthy.

Perfect relaxed lunch spot. Small menu selection, mostly cafe style seafood favourites. Well executed, good size portions and fair prices.
Small beer and wine selection that has been well considered.
Well worth a visit.

Top-notch food! We ordered the seafood platter and were extremely satisfied with the food quality: it was fresh and beautifully seasoned. Will be back for more!

A lovely place to spend the afternoon with our visiting relatives from Sydney, enjoying the food, wine and view

It’s the prime seaside cafe with glorious views of Horseshoe Bay…the ocean is literally 20 metres away

What a lovely cafe! We were staying at the nearby holiday park so we came here a few times. The coffee is great and lovely service from the girls there. The views are gorgeous and I could have easily sat all day, drinking lots of their great coffee and admiring the view! Do yourself a favour and drop in. It's well worth it.

Was expecting so much more about the fish. Didn't enjoy the flavour and chips seemed old.

Great place, great views, great location, great wine, great fish n chips, with the option of take away on the beach, dine in café or dine in posh! The only improvement (and I get that it's a seafood place) would be more vegan/veggie options. (the only vegan one they had was sold out!)

Two of us had the signature dish and paid top dollar for the seafood plate. Flathead piece of fish was 57mm long. One of the 2 oysters was a juvenile. The calamari was left for dead by that offered by the Kuti Shack. Greek salad from a Woolworths container. It was atrocious. Something is not as it should be here. Spend your hard earned elsewhere.

Thanks for your reply. I advised the wait staff and questioned what was on my plate prior to me touching it. It was taken away and returned with a reasonable size piece of fish. Everything but the new fish on the plate was cold and by then my family had finished theirs meal. Glad your concerned.

A delightful lunch of fresh and delicious seafood with an amazing view. Friendly and efficient service.

It's always great. Good food and service and an enviable southern coast location makes delightful viewing while dining. In the high holiday season it was incredibly busy and, of course, noisy as a result! Well worth a visit and our lunch was delicious!

Well, overall, it could be better. The coffin bay oysters were really nice as an entree, fresh and Kilpatrick. Lovely. The mains were a little underwhelming with the prawn curry having very tasty prawns and cauliflower but the curry sauce itself was missing flavour. You need that Zing to keep your palate interested! My partner wondered if the chef had ever had a nice green or yellow curry before. ‍️
My flathead was nice but felt small and kind of overpriced.
Service was good, staff were nice, drinks were from local wineries, good spot on the beach.

Food was hit and delicious. We came 15 mins early and they were happy to accommodate us as best they could. The staff were delightful. Thanks

The staff were welcoming. The 45 min wait for our main (1st) course was too long, perhaps you could have provided bread rolls, and the sweet called chocolate mousse was pretty awful, it certainly didn't taste of chocolate and I have never eaten a liquid mousse usually because it is normally a aeriated sweet.

Was a good feed! Only bad thing is I went there with just my kids and myself and the kids ate about 20 minutes before I even got my food! It didn’t feel like we had dinner together

Sensational dinner. We had the oysters, pippis, Thai curry and heirloom carrots. Fresh and deliciously plated with a great view.

Hi Great service, special atmosphere with view of the roiling surf in the bay. Regarding food ~ the Flathead meal was excellent, the 3 serves of Salt and pepper squid were a bit disappointing.the squid rings were nice, but the tentacles/body were tough or under cooked, and salad was hard to fork. However we enjoyed a wine, and the meal generally. A nice Treat for Xmas.
