The Left Bank Bar & Cafe

The name just brings it all together. By the bank food good cant get any better. 5 stars

Approximate cost: $15

This was my favourite place to have breakfast serving some delicious food and offering stunning views. Was a great way to start my day, very relaxing. My double espresso with my bacon and eggs each morning was great. Service with a smile and reasonable prices.

Breakfast is a bit of an institution midweek for the 'lycra lads' after an early morning ride, but also for the rest of us mere mortals in the downstairs indoor/ outdoor area. We often go there for a work breakfast meeting- staff friendly and efficent and food good quality & decent portions- kitchen service is fast and they serve the whole table in a group which is nice for everyone. As a lot of outdoor seating its nice in warm weather, but best to book inside table if cold or wet- still get the view but cosy inside. River views spectacular winter or summer with dolphins often frolicking right across the way. Sunday sess best for the young ones- always very busy and cool, relaxed vibe. Sunday breakfast buffet upstairs in the resturant a local institution- about $20- best to book. The upstairs resturant menu varies and we have always found the wait staff advice excellent. Balcony seating nicest. Downstairs resturant has different more casual lunch menu and cheaper. We live local so can walk as parking can be an issue

This is the first time I dined here and was pleasantly surprised as I didn't know what to expect. I can now understand why this place has been around for so long. In fact, we went on a weekday evening (although before 6 Jan so some people might not have gone back to work yet) and I was surprised to see the cafe downstairs full. We dined at the restaurant upstairs and it filled up while we were there.

We were seated in the balcony area so we could enjoy the views of the Swan River (we were protected from the wind by plastic blinds). For starters, we shared the tasting plate (terrine, turkish bread and dip, 2 mini quiche and some fish goujons) . For $28, it is pretty ok.

For mains, we ordered Jerk Chicken with coconut rice($28) Crispy skinned baramundi ($35) and 300gm sirloin fillet with red wine jus ($42). They were generously portioned and delicious!

I would recommend this place.

Service was pretty friendly too (not formal).

Kudos to cloth napkins as so many restaurants now use paper ones.

The staff were so nice and helpful. I had a steak as I don't like seafood and it was cooked to perfection! Had I liked seafood i think i would have been in heaven- the mixed seafood platters are both huge and crammed full- they looked very fresh.
I think the left bank is great value for money as all food is extremely fresh, high quality and cooked incredibly, the atmosphere is lovely, and the staff friendly.

I would definitely reccomend the left bank as a good value restaurant to go to for lunch or dinner.

Been to The Left Bank a couple of times with friends and it's always been a great dining experience. It is located by the river and has a wonderful vibe any time of the day. Love dining outdoors for a casual, laid back meal. The restaurant is also lovely and all the wait staff are pleasant. Food is delicious especially their seafood platters. For a fantastic dining experience by the river, this is the place to come :)

Awesome for a sunday session in summer. Beautiful views of the river and plenty of rooms and space for functions. A band plays on weekends to add to the up beat atmosphere. Food is lovely and an extemsive wine list to compliment your meal. Parking can be a pain when busy it can be hard to find a parking spot close by.

From catching up with mates to having a formal function, The Left Bank caters for it all. The Left Bank has not only a café, a vibrant bar and an award-winning restaurant, but also beautiful views to boot. The property is positioned on the shores of the river and showcases it's location through the courtyard, mezzanine, upstairs restaurant and indoor café areas.

Enjoyed a work breaskfast here on a Sunday. Had to pre-book and they were happy to hold for our group of 20. Coffee's were lovely, you can't beat the view. Food was really good and reasonably priced based on the location. Food for our group came out pretty much together which was nice, people didn't have to wait ages for others etc. Parking can be a pain, one of the group got broken in to (:() but that's not the restaurants fault

Good wine list and it was wonderful to sit on the balcony and watch teh sun go down.

The staff are always friendly and give great service. Meals are on average about 39.00 so it's a bit pricier than your average pub. Overlooking the river and the old house gives a great atmosphere

Approximate cost: $39

Always a great meal in the Left Bank restaurant with smiling, friendly staff. The taste plate is always a great starter to share and you can never go past the seafood platter for two on Wednesdays which is only $39 and available downstairs as well.

Approximate cost: $25-30

The Left Bank is a great place to go for a drink with friends or for a meal. There is casual dining outside downstairs or the option of a more restaurant style upstairs. Food is always really enjoyable and the view of the river is great!

The atmosphere is great, right on the water. The restaurant is upstairs, and the grand old tree is lovely. We had the T Bone steak, which comes with 2prawns, handcut chips and salad. Really delicious. We finished the meal with Sticky Date Pudding, which was served with a yummy caramel sauce and sweet vanilla icecream. Have been back.

Have been for breakfast and for lunch and would recommend the breakfast any day, the food is cooked exaclty as asked (referring to eggs here) and they fill your plate. I am always famished at breakfast and this fills me up. Look out over the water, the staff are always smiling (I guess you would if you worked with that view) and prices are fair, same as any other restaurant. Parking is alright if you know where to look, it gets really busy so try and book ahead

First impression was wow what a great view, and second impression the shared seafood platter was superb, one of the best I have ever tasted. Lovely relaxed atmosphere and considering how busy they were the staff managed beautifully. I will definately go back here. My partner and I enjoyed vibe and found staff as well as other clientelle very friendly. Great place to visit if your from out of town like we were - very welcoming

Approximate cost: $39

Looks great on the outside , but the night we went there was crowded, parking was a nightmare and a few to many " over the limit " people around that got quite load, mentioned it to staff but nothing was done, so we only had a pre dinner drink and left to find another place with less drunks

Their waiters are consistently pleasant. It has a river view as the restaurant is upstairs - oh, if you sit outside. The restaurant is upstairs, is cosy and is suitable for families too.
