We held our work Christmas party here and it was absolutely outstanding. The venue was stunning, the atmosphere was perfect and the entire evening ran seamlessly. The food was exquisite, every course was beautifully prepared and full of flavour and our team gave so many compliments throughout the night. The drink service was exceptional: attentive, friendly and perfectly paced. The staff truly went above and beyond to make sure everyone felt looked after. Thank you for helping us create such a memorable night. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend!

Delicious from start to finish. Highlights were the prawns, we got an extra serve because they were so good! We really loved the cured fish, wagyu and the spaghetti had so much flavour. The anchovy on brioche was a great way to start too. Extensive range of non-alc drinks and a curated selection of cocktails and wines.

BEAUTIFUL CAFE! The views are amazing, especially in the morning on high tide when the fish are all below the deck. Great food, bread is made in-house and coffee was delish. Did have to wait momentarily for the barista to acknowledge us when we arrived, but all else was fine.

Walking in service was next level. Seated on the deck, the atmosphere was great our attendant took our drink order straight away. The menu was outstanding so many old school favourites that were made at home. The attention to detail needs to be commended, cloth napkins and polished silverware. No paper on the tables. We orders multiple entrees and small dishes that every bite was an absolute delight. So well thought out and so perfectly executed. Old skool charm in our modern world is a breath of fresh air in Coffs Harbour. Locals please get behind this business as they also do breakfast and lunch, have a bakery and a cocktail bar, yes we tried some and we’ll be back. Congratulations Stef & Co you setting a new standard for Coffs Harbour restaurants. The competition will be fierce with the new kid on the block.

A waterfront gem with quality in every detail—linen napkins, an open kitchen, and staff who strike the perfect balance of professional and personable. From the deck you look straight over blue water, fish darting beneath, while plates arrive that rival Sydney’s top restaurants. For our anniversary we ordered arancino, oysters, mussel pasta and the fish of the day—swordfish with a velvety sauce and tangy salad. Every dish was faultless, and the service was even better. When we were still talking about the sauce after finishing, our waitress appeared with house-baked sourdough so we could savour the last of it. We spoke with one of the chefs, who was generous with tips and happy to chat. Refined yet relaxed, and priced far more reasonably than you’d expect for one of the best dining experiences I’ve had. A genuine 10/10
