A nice cafe on the Hervey Bay marina. Simple food, reasonable coffee, good view and friendly service. The waitress seemed to be the only one working and as lunchtime became busy, started to be less able to look after all the customers. read more

This was easily the best breakfast I'd had for my entire two week trip to Australia. I ordered the…read morebacon and eggs, and Australian bacon is more comparable to American ham. Perfectly cooked, they scrambled my eggs without an upcharge, and the service was friendly and fast, too. This location is great as well, on the corner with a beautiful view of the ocean. It's insanely popular so be prepared for a wait if you're coming for dinner on a Friday or Saturday night. One other note: All of the seating is outdoors but under a tent/gazebo type thing.
Eggs and bacon with toast and a tomato.

We were staying at the resort and noticed that from our first night the restaurant was booked out…read moreevery night, which is always a good sign. We had a drink at the bar on our last night there and the lovely staff were nice enough to squeeze us in for a meal, even though they were fully booked yet again. It was without a doubt the best fillet mignon I've had in a very long time. While the decor at the restaurant is a bit dated the lovely staff and accommodating owners make up for it. We will certainly be going back.

The service was friendly and the food was great. I ordered the lamb cutlets with rosemary crumb and full of flavour, I got 3 cutlets with chips and salad and it was a big meal for me. My partner ordered the chicken parmigiana and it was huge, also came with chips and salad. Recommend this place, they have raffles on Friday nights which is bloody busy. Beer is cold and they do specials. Coffee and cake will set you back $9

Lots of choices, including bacon, eggs (3 different ways), hash browns, grilled tomato, mushrooms, savoury mince, baked beans, spaghetti, bread/toast, pikelets, cereals, fruit and yoghurt plus tar, coffee and juices all for $15 if you pay at reception before you walk in ($20 if you pay in restaurant). We all thought it was well and truly worth $15. This cafe is located i up the stairs in the entrance to the Ramada Hervey Bay. You don't have to be staying at Ramada to enjoy the cafe. Am yet to try the dinner here. Very comfortable dining space with room to move and nice staff. You can sit inside or outside depending on how you feel. Breakfast buffet is also 7 days so that's a bonus for me.

All very chill. Varied eating areas from tables to bench by ocean to bean bags. Where ever you might want to chill and soak up the Hervey Bay vibes.

What a location. And sometimes you even get these with magnificent tropical rainbows.

This is a very small cafe that gets very busy but if there's no tables available you can grab your food/drinks to go and sit at one of the gorgeous spots over the road overlooking the beach.

Coast is just a short distance away and may be a better option; they offer a similar style of cuisine for around the same price, but with more impressive results. Note that dinner is only available at the Salt Cafe on Friday and Saturday nights.

The chicken is so moist and there's a lovely range of salads to choose from. I had the 1/4 chicken dinner which consisted of 1/4 chicken obviously (and you get to choose wing or leg section) plus three salads. We got Caesar, lemongrass chicken and beetroot and pumpkin. All that for $11.90. They also told us we could swap a salad for a side of hot roasted potato,sweet potato and carrot in a honey mustard dressing ( saving that for next time).It fed two of us with leftovers. The salads are all incredibly fresh and super tasty. Other person had the schnitzel burger combo with chips and salad (also $11.90) and it was delicious and well worth the money. This new business gets extremely busy but you still don't wait long. While we were finishing our meal one of the lovely owners came over to ask us if our meals were ok and we had a nice chat and told him how lovely our meals were, he was so pleased when we told him we would now be regulars. It's these little touches that make you want to spend your money, great food and friendly service can't be beaten. Well done to the brother and sister team for bringing something so yummy to the bay.
