I've had some good times here. The beer garden is a great place to spend a lazy Sunday afternoon in the sun. It's right across from the beach which is a big bonus. You can eat at the bistro, and cook your steak your self on the BBQ - very relaxed.

The food here is really pretty good and the prices are standard. I strongly recommend the Onion Bhaji and the Tikka Masala, the full Tandoori chicken is pretty good too.

We tried about half a dozen pizza places on the gold coast before we found this one, the pizza's are delicious and very generous toppings. They have a range of other food too and also offer Gluten Free.

Great place to take kids of all ages. Even my 7month old loves it! They have rides for the little ones too. The shows are really good, especially the dolphin show. It's a great family day out.

Popular fish and chip shop that does very fresh seafood. You can buy cooked or fresh. This place gets really busy especially on Good Friday! So be prepared for a short wait.

Great place to go if you are in the Margaret River and wanting to do something other than wineries. You can sample different types of coffee, and purchase all things coffee. The smell alone is enough reason to visit!

I went here for my antenatal appointments and also for my baby's checkups and vaccinations. The doctors and midwives here are very professional, friendly and caring which is what you need and expect when dealing with childbirth. I'd recommend them to anyone in the area.

Family run by a Trinidad couple. The service is excellent, they are very friendly people who even remember our names! The Roti (a Caribbean style 'wrap' filled with meat and veg in a curry sauce) is beautiful and fairly prices. I recommend the chicken and potato. Excellent for a filling, healthy and different bite to eat. The Calypso Col's sauce is amazing and you can buy a bottle to take home for about $5.

The staff are friendly and very knowledgeable. The pool is heated and indoors which is great for little ones and winter lessons. The cost is comparable to other swim schools and they offer makeup lessons. The program is excellent, the best I've seen in W.A.

This place is excellent. It's right on the water with great views. The food is seafood and Greek and very delicious. The servings are big. They are children friendly, we have taken a baby a couple of times and they have been very accommodating. If you go at lunch time or before 6pm the main meals are half price! Which makes it very affordable.
