Clareville Kiosk

Reviewed By Sooooz - Sydney

A lovely restaurant serving superb, innovative food. The staff were warmly attentive but unobtrusive, who timed the serving of the dishes and drinks perfectly. The bread with the flavoured butter certainly had the WOW factor! We don't usually have dessert, especially after an entree and a main course, but having savoured every beautiful and sometimes unexpected flavours in the first two courses, we were intrigued by the descriptions of the desserts and just couldn't resist. Who'd have imagined celeriac in a dessert? Fabulous! A great wine list with some delightfully surprising origins. We'll be dining at Clareville Kiosk far more often!

Jonah's Whale Beach

Perhaps the only feature that can divert your attention from the stunning view at Jonah’s is the food. The multi award-winning Hatted Restaurant offers excellent Contemporary Australian cuisine and an exceptional wine list offering more than 1600 wines from around the globe.

Amazing location and view - get there while it's still light - supported by excellent service and good food. Ask for a table at the window. And not near the sliding door to the deck.

Pizzeria e Cucina

Reviewed By LongReefHacker - Sydney, Australia

I wanted a quick light meal and this restaurant is close to home. I ordered gnocchi al gamberi.
This is a basic, simple Italian dish. However, simple meals are often hard to do really well. My meal was brilliant.
The gnocchi, obviously hand made, was light and fluffy. The prawns were just cooked and were sweet and juicy. The sauce of lemon, capers, butter and crisp sage was sublime. The whole dish belied its simplicity. It was delicious. The textures were perfect. It was served just hot enough (a function I am sure of the quick cooking) for it to stay warm until I had finished. This was the best single Italian dish I have experienced since I was last in Bologna.
Service was OK - not brilliant but polite and attentive. The price was great for the quality, though probably a little expensive against nearby Asian restaurants.
For a quick, high quality Italian meal however, this was hard to top.

Barrenjoey House

Reviewed By Jimmy A - Melbourne, Australia

Dishes were not as described. The flat bread was hard and the fish & chips seemed to have been microwaved. Also all staff seemed to be not interested and as if you were bothering them every time they served you or you asked something.

It was an overcast Monday, not a day when one think the hordes would be out.
Well they were and they were at The Boathouse. We had friends from Arizona, not so nimble. On arrival around 13.00 all tables taken, mind you some suitable for 6 but occupied by couples or mothers with one kiddie, Friends getting antsie after 5 minutes of searching and just about to go elsewhere when I spotted a table with 2 lovely ladies onto their coffees. They happily made way for us, was interesting to join in on their conversation as they had just had their DNA analysed. Thank you ladies as we had a delightful meal. Order yourself,the one sav blanc, a Martinbourough, not a stunner but OK. The battered flathead and chips a winner with our friends. I enjoyed the trout and salmon dish.
Reason marked down to 4* due to the disorganisation of Seating, must be a better way, numbers or something

Nourished Wholefood Cafe

Reviewed By Merry N - Sydney

Fantastic buzzing, wholefood cafe in the heart of Avalon serving everything that your body will thank you for. Started with an immune booster juice (apple, carrot and ginger), and a dirty soy latte! Stunning presentation! The spicy bean and corn nachos w organic linseed chips was moorish and tasty. The wood-fired salmon bruschetta was so smokey and full of flavour with a generous dollop of avocado, a refreshing salad with a green goodness dressing, accompanied by top quality soy and linseed toast. Loved the fact that the generous serving of toast was to the side rather than traditional bruschetta! Coming back to try more of this wholesome, delicious menu! Worth the trip!

Zubi bar

Reviewed By LucyKate - Canberra, Australia

Since first surprising the Northern Beaches by bringing decent coffee in a cool setting to Newport in 2011 Zubi has never failed to deliver.
Every time we visit Newport we stop here for coffee, and over dozens of visits during the past 6 years there's never been a bad coffee. Food and coffee is delivered quickly, and being able to chill out in the garden out back with a paper and coffee is one of the absolute highlights of a weekend in the Northern Beaches.

Beco@Chelsea Tea House

Reviewed By Ellemay - Sydney, Australia

We dropped into Beco @ Chelsea for coffee whilst waiting to the rain stopped. The cafe was extremely busy & we did wait a little for service. However the coffee was very good & the breakfast going out from the kitchen looked yummy.
