The prices are higher than average but the chefs certainly put every dollar of value back onto your plate and it is in a bit of an up market location with a premium view anyhow. Great end of ride destination and a hidden gem in Newcastle.

Back again today for lunch. Then I will walk the other way around the water. Shame I live so far away.

It was packed with pumpkin, mushrooms, and haloumi. My partner and I had a disagreement over his chili prawn linguine; after the first bite, he reached for his water, while I found the heat level to be just right. Regardless of our differing opinions on spice, we both agreed it was absolutely delicious. Breakfast is served from 8 AM to 12 PM, lunch from 12 PM to 3 PM, and dinner on Fridays and Saturdays from 6 PM to 9 PM.

During the peak of COVID, they showed incredible support for the local community, and I think that generosity has come back to them in spades. The coffee is excellent, and the food changes based on the catch of the day. The service is friendly and efficient, and the views are fantastic. It’s also a great place for kids and dogs. I really couldn’t ask for anything more from a local café.
