Situated near several of the holiday activities in Nelson Bay, this restaurant was very busy serving takeaway food, most of which comprised fried foods such as fish and chips. Few salads or healthy menu items were available. Staff members were pleasant and helpful. Gluten free options were limited to milk shakes and a sweet nutty slice.
9. Bay hut cafe
Bay Hut Cafe offers breakfast and lunch menu and all day breakfast. We take great pride in also offering extensive options for gluten free and vegan meals, drinks and deserts.

We tried this new cafe on their first day and they nailed it. The coffee is a medium roast with good strength and worthy of a second cup.The eggs were perfectly cooked on an egg and bacon roll as well as on the eggs Benedict, the young (female) chef plating up quickly and precisely on a busy day. I've been back 4 times in a week and it's been a pleasure every time.
8. In House Kitchen
Reviewed By RobnRose1993
We've been here on many occasions - and absolutely loved it, but today, Sunday was appalling. Had to wait almost an hour for our food. People that had come in well after us were served and had departed before we were served. In fact, by the time we got our breakfast the breakfast rush was over and they were preparing for lunch. We were crammed into a table that really should have been for two but we squeezed in four. We ordered the exact same breakfast the day before and we were given very different portions today. I also made the mistake of ordering tea for the first time, not a coffee, not recommended in this cafe, coffees are great, but tea, well hmmmmmm, not enough tea leaves for the pot size, tea was weak and watery. They also forgot to bring me my milk. Ordered both Raisin toast and Scones, both disappointing. The whole experience was not good, when raising it with staff, care factor, without exaggeration was a polite zero.

After reading the reviews my husband and I went to get burgers from sidewalk, unfortunately I would have to disagree with every other review. This is a disorganised and poorly run cafe, the burger patties were undercooked and soggy and the chips were unsalted. Terrible. How hard is it to get a decent meal in Nelson bay?

The food was ok but the wait time for basic fish and chips is far to long. While waiting for our we witnessed several customers return to the counter we their orders being stuffed up.Hi there CoreyT1980 sorry to here your disappointment. Your words are really quiet hurtful to all our staff who try so hard to keep everyone happy as possible. I am also sorry you feel you waited to long for your " Basic fish and chips". we also have a whole separate café menu in which could have been busy and attributed to your wait.

This is a gem. Delicious food prepared by a chef who frantically dashes around his small kitchen with a serenely calm demeanour. He is in control. And his work is terrific. Good selection of pizza with a crispy base. Three little pigs, and the seafood are both great. Wife loves the very cheap but very fancy salads. Nice selection of wine, (bottle shop on premises) and three beers on tap, including a coopers (meh) a wheat beer (not my thang) and a home grown âcellar lagerâ (delicious!). Service is home town/family and super friendly. Strongly recommend either dining in or getting takeaway to one of the parks with ocean views. Best value in Fingal, Shoal or Nelson Bay.

With not many places open on a public holiday and a chill wind blowing pizza seemed a good option. We werenât disappointed. Excellent base and toppings.

Yep... we needed a flag to tackle this amazing mountain of food.Eggs Benny, Smashed Avo and Zucchini Fritters were our poison of choice. The fritters were deep fried and a little brown but very tasty. My eggs Benny was bloody awesome. Yep, worth a visit. Take your spare tummy!

A leafy cafe popular with the locals, just off the main street and worth searching out for the best coffee in town.
Reviewed By jenniferhelen92
We had a really lovely lunch here - great menu with lots of good options, both healthy and more indulgent! We had the Asian chicken salad and the tiger prawn tacos and both were delicious! All the other food coming out looked great too. Would definitely recommend and hope to be back for breakfast.
