Went there tonight with hubby ordered 2 burgers one with a side of onion rings and one with a side of chips both take away and when we got home they had both onion rings Not the first mistake they have madeSave your money and don't go there as there is a 90% chance they will get it wrongYou will either get the wrong order or the burgers will still be raw be careful and save your time and moneyHello, I'm sorry to hear that there was an onion ring and chips mix up and that this has led to a second bad review.

Salty Dog Bistro

Reviewed By Patrick026

The Lake Macquarie Yacht Club bistro has great food at reasonable prices. We went there for lunch with friends on Easter Saturday and throroughly enjoyed it. Fortunately the weather was good which made our choice of seating out on the deck a good one. With views across the marina, lake and foreshore, what more could you want. Service, from both dining and bar areas was friendly and prompt on a reasonably busy public holiday. Meal sizes were good and prices reasonable. Recommend the battered fish & chips (John Dory fish), Scotch Fillet steak and Thai Beef salad. Will definitely go there again.

Great location with friendly and helpful staff. Eaten here several times and never had a disappointing meal. Love the Lemon Pepper Squid, Seafood Basket, Double Beef Cheese Burger, and the various mini cheesecake desserts are a good way to finish. A great spot for a meal whilst enjoying the views on the edge of Lake Macquarie.

Located in the heart of Lake Macquarie NSW, the Gunyah Hotel offers convenient accommodation with modern amenities and affordable rates. The recently renovated pub offers traditional pub feel with a modern touch and breath-taking views of Lake Macquarie.

Reviewed By Lakesuburb

The very best experience to celebrate my husbands 60th.We selected The Gunyah Hotel primarily for its modern open and airy aspect, both in the bar and restaurant, overlooking Lake Macquarie.Provided with a long table for 18. Had tapas to start while people mingled. Ordered and received excellent mains and staff had refrigerated the cake and lit candles ( some of which they provided) and presented same to table when requested with plates and spoons.This whole experience couldn’t have gone better.Susan

The Shack

We have eaten at the Shack on many occasions. The steak has always been cooked to a perfect medium rare. The mushroom pasta is to die for. The staff are always friendly and helpful. To top it off, We wanted a very lazy sunday at home watching movies without adulty and thanks to the shack we were able to get takeaway. Thanks for a perfect sunday.

Mawson

Large Restaurant with well spaced tables and chairs inside and outside. View of the Beach outside. Kid friendly area, Pet friendly outside with a doggy treat menu available.

Reviewed By Wanderering1

The staff here are worth the visit on their own. They are, without exception, personable, genuine and friendly. The warm smiles and welcoming demeanour make a meal here all the more enjoyable. As for the food, well it is also delightful. Quality ingredients, thoughtfully combined and cooked with skill. Meals are delivered to the table promptly and the servings are generously proportioned. Give the slow cooked brisket a try: flavoursome and tender. Thankyou so much wanderering1 for your kind review. We think our staff are pretty special and so glad you think so too. Delighted to hear you enjoyed our slow cooked brisket. We will be trialling a few more winter delights in the coming weeks so hope to see you back here soon. Thanks again

Swansea Hotel

Located in the beautiful Lake Macquarie. We are the friendliest pub in town with great food, beer & banter.

Reviewed By Lynne M

On Friday 19th October my husband and I went to Swansea Hotel with relatives for dinner. Our relatives told us they have very good meals at Swansea Hotel.We were sadly disappointed. Our relatives had pork belly and lamb cutlets and said their meals were great.My husband and I had lamb shanks.Unbelievably aweful. The meat wasn't falling off the bone. It was tough and had no flavour. The sauce hadn't penetrated the meat. My husband had to wait longer for his meal because they stuffed his order up. While my husband was waiting for his meal he called the waitress over and told her my lamb shank wasn't cooked properly and was tough. She just looked at us and said nothing. My husband asked her if she could tell the chef. She said she would. We never heard another word about it. We don't even know if the chef was told. My husband's lamb shank arrived and it was no better. We really should have sent them back and got something else. $24 each for a tough flavourless lamb shank is a rip off.No acknowledgement or offer to rectify the issue was appalling.We were only visiting and aren't keen to ever come back.

Reviewed By 480astridp

We visit here quite often. Lovely meals, generously proportioned and a wide range to suit all tastes. There can be quite a wait when it is busy. good range of drinks available. You can sit inside downstairs or chose to sit upstairs on the new verandah and take in the views. There is a fantastic kids play space, which would benefit from having easier access from inside, but I'm sure the intention is for parents to actively supervise their kids whilst they play.Thank you for your kind review. We are very proud of our newly renovated club and hope you come back and enjoy it again soon.RegardsManagement
