I came back to see that the quality of the food just got better, the calamari was yummy and crunchy and amazing and also the pork belly, this place has an amazing location and view as well. Perfect for summer.

Huge space so we easily got a table even on a busy Friday before Christmas. Food is always reliably good

We had a great time in Boat Builders Yard. JP, our waiter was very kind and we had a really good service. It’s always very pleasant to have a waiter with a big smile and looking for us.
Highly recommend it!

Sunday Brunch
- Nobody wiping tables or welcome guests in
- Had to grab serviettes and cutlery ourself
- took 30 mins which wasn't too bad considering they were busy
- Asked for extra hot coffee but it was warm.tasted great though
- Cold eggs
- Burnt cold bacon
- Toast was good though
- Nobody serving/offering water

You'd think with the weekend surcharge, they'd be able to get more staff or at least staff that put a bit more effort in. Worst brunch experience for me in Australia unfortunately.

Great after work and after shopping drinks. Delicious cocktails and food. Beautiful views by the river, couldn't ask for more. Thank you

I did not eat here so cant comment on the food.

The staff were excellent, friendly and knowledgeable. They were welcoming and prompt with their service, and knowledgeable about the drinks they had on offer.

Great place to have a drink and relax in a lovely setting with a friend

Terrible joint. Paid 13 bucks for a beer and it was 3/4s full. When I said something they argued. Wouldn’t recommend!

Pretty big venue with outdoor seatings for small and large groups. New sand/beach area with bean bags for the kids to lounge. Great place for a catch up with friends when the weather is nice

Great place to have a drink with mates. Food portions a bit small and menu not extensive. Would definitely recommend.

Decent outdoor seating to relax after a day at DFO. Has nice views of the city and an extensive drinks menu.

Great place to go for drinks with a group, especially when the weather is nice. The staff are usually friendly and helpful. Just watch out for the swans which sometimes wander around. Not very relaxing, especially if you are with someone who is scared of birds.

We were there a long way from prime time (11.45am for lunch) so maybe the main staff hadn't arrived yet but everything was below average. Calamari was old and covered in salt dust batter, the vegie burger was poor and the two kids margherita pizzas weren't eaten. Unheard of for our kid not to like margherita pizza! It was also tiny for the price.

Food was OK but expensive. Seemed very self service. You order and pay on your phone, and have to get your own water.

Great place for kids and young family's chill vibes good in the heat. A good meet up point for groups, bucks and hens included. Pricey drinks but that's the city

Good place to chill with mates, have a couple of drinks and snacks. Plenty of space and tables. Drinks and food reasonably reasonably priced. Food was a tad too salty but you can easily balance that out with a few drinks ;)

The Jalapeno vegetarian burger was pretty blah. I hated the patty which some red fake meat option that could be better.they should consider one of the fantastic products out there.go and search for quality! Chips were nothing special.service was friendly and QR menu was easy enough
