What an excellent view whilst having lunch. We did pop in yesterday to make a booking so that we…read moregot a window table today. Two of us went for the light lunch with calamari.....very nice and a good size. Our other diners went for the blue eyed cod and fish & chips. They were suitably fed too. We drank the local beers and they were good. The service was attentive too. Parking can be a problem so go for an early time.

Is there anything better than a pub sitting on a cliff overlooking the beach? Probably, but a lazy…read moreSunday afternoon sipping bubbles whilst you watch the waves crash against the shore is pretty darn good. The Pacific Hotel which sits just above Main Beach in Yamba is one of those country town gems that has the best local feel. There's a bar in the front and a bistro in the back with a main stage in the corner where bands from all around the Northern Rivers come on various days, check their website if coming to see some live music is your thing. Or if you're like me and just want to have a relaxing lunch overlooking the ocean grab a seat in the bistro. All the tables are by the giant glass windows which overlook the cliffs and beach. There's a great bistro menu with classic pub fare as well as fresh seafood from the area (oysters from Wooli and fish from Yamba). The food is great. I had the salt and pepper squid which was tender and fresh, Dad has a steak sandwich which was cooked perfectly on turkish bread (a nice light alternative if you want my opinion) and Mum had pork skewers (an entree but came out the size of a main). Topping off the food I had sticky date pudding for dessert which was the only thing that was a slightly let down. Great flavour but a little dry, thankfully there was plenty of butterscotch sauce and ice cream to remedy that. The fact that the food and service are great is just the tip of the iceberg with this pub. You really want to just come for the view. Any day it's going to be great, rain or sunshine.

Stayed a night but could have stayed a week. Great location and facilities. Huge rooms, awesome…read morelayout, clean and very kid friendly too. They have indoor and outdoor play areas, pools, spa etc. Would have given them 5 stars but in winter when the huge spa is the most popular area they put up a sign declaring it an adults only area forcing kids to freeze in the main pools (supposedly heated but not that warm in winter of course).

I only stayed here for one night, but this is by far one of the nicest places I have ever stayed…read morein. We had an easy access room, which was huge. It had a double bed, a queen bed and a single bed. The room was very spacious and had a dining area, a big kitchen and a big lounge room. If you want to use the wifi, DON'T MAKE AN ACCOUNT AND DON'T PAY FOR IT!! Call reception, and they will give you a username and password where you can get unlimited wifi for free. I almost payed for wifi thinking that it was not complimentary. The speed was decent. It only allows one device connected to the wifi at a time per room. We had continental breakfast, which allowed us to eat all the cold things, like some selected pastries, cereal, and it also included toast. The location was excellent, being only a few minutes away from shops and the beach. The pool was very nice and big. The hotel overall had lots of things going on the keep you entertained. Overall, this stay was extremely pleasant. I am DEFINITELY going to be coming back to Yamba and staying at the Angourie Rainforest Resort.

I had a really great time at this Tavern! My friend and I started with their Fish of the Day…read morespecial for $25 and it was a fish I never tried but really enjoyed. It came with a large portion of fries and a small salad with vinegar dressing. They have a lot of good entertainment here (i.e. pool table, jukebox with amazing selection, and slot machines to gamble.)

We shared the table of an american couple we met in the line up whilst waiting to order. Although it took a while to order it didnt take long for our meal to arrive, I had the chicken schnitzel and although rather large (with I thought too many chips) was absolutley beautiful and quite inexpensive. Dispite the amount of people there we didn't have to wait long at the bar. All the staff were rushed off their feet all night but this didn't seem to effect the service. After dinner we listened to a reggae band "Ragga Jump" who were great. The recent renovations at the tavern are great and I know I'll be returning quite frequently.
