    Staff were all great, attentive and friendly. Meals were all very large for the price and everything from the seafood to the steak was cooked perfectly as per our requests. The atmosphere was great and the view of Mollymook beach is divine. Highly recommend!

    Wonderful staff who catered to 8 of us including a 99 year old in a wheelchair who managed to spill her drink! 😭 Food was gorgeous and it is a favourite meeting place for us with people travelling from Sydney, Canberra and the South Coast.
