    Patio with Sunday roast dinner
    Steve C.

    If you are lucky enough to be here on Sunday evening check into their Sunday roast. Meal, entertainment, atmosphere hits all the marks at this restaurant. Such a cool concept. Enjoyable place for family or dates. You MUST go here if you are vegetarian or care about healthier meals. Loved it.

    If I could give them more stars I would. Recommended by staff at Elements of Byron we went on a Sunday night. They said they had roast and being a veggie I thought I wouldn't be able to eat anything. They said they had a veggie roast and it was the best thing I've ever eaten. Starting with a broccoli dish so spectacular. Roasted pumpkin with roast carrots, potato , bokchoy with Yorkshire pud! I added cheesy cauliflower. How I had room for dessert I don't know but that was amazing. Just great staff, incredible chefs!! Excellent wine list and drinks. We loved it so much we came back for lunch a few days later. Do not miss this if visiting

    We were surprised when we arrived at 8pm to find the place was much quieter for dinner compared to the buzziness of lunchtime. However we like that not everyone is talking at the top of their voice at dinner and we could actually hear our own conversation. The food here is fantastic and so worth to make the trip for. However , $21 for the sashimi entree was definitely too rich! It tasted superb with avocado cream, the toasted black sesame seed added a wonderful layer of cruchiness to the taste, but all I got was five thinly sliced kingfish sashimi. That's too stingy. My partner loved his oysters. $4.50 each for half a dozen and comes with finger lime dipping. I had one and it was superbly fresh! The mains were more reasonable in portion size. The pork $36 was just slightly over cooked and not as tender as it should be but the flavours are spot on, a pleasant surprise that it also comes with very crispy skin which wasn't mentioned on the menu. The lamb from the southern tableland $37 won the prize for best dish of the night. It was super tender and perfectly pink. It has the best flavours of any lamb we have tasted recently. All the accompanying char veggies on the two dishes tasted sublime. The dessert of burnt honey ice cream was fantastic. Beside this and the cheesplate, the only other choice for dessert was tiramisu. This might be everyone's favourite but we thought it was too obvious a choice for this restaurant. Tiramisu seems to appear on every restaurant's menu, it is not an interesting option for us. The waiters are friendly but not very attentive. As our mains were served, we were well into the last drop of our first glass of wine. We wanted to order the second glass to go with our mains. But all the waiters were busy and we tried and tried to get their attention to no avail. By the time we finally caught one of them and ordered we were already finishing our mains. And the wines took a long time to be delivered. By the time we got it we had long finished our mains! After the dessert, we ordered another cup of coffee. By this time, which was around 9.30pm most of the other diners have left. All the waiters were busy cleaning up. The coffee was never delivered. Hence we were very disappointed with the quality of their service at the end of our meal. So we rate the food 4/5. For service 2/5.

    Wow...so this is what fresh food really tastes like! Pricey, but portions are generous. Everything is made fresh and sourced locally. Even the milk in our coffee was organic and the juice freshly squeezed. Enjoyed our breakfast surrounded by lush farmland and a couple of chooks circling our table... your can't really get a more authentic farmhouse brekkie than that! Three Blue Ducks a must try when in Byron Bay!

    I loved this place in theory, but in execution I thought it could be better. Three Blue Ducks is an extremely versatile place. It has a sit-down restaurant, a bakery, a cafe, a gelato stand, a street-style food vendor cart, an extensive bar, a playground for kids, animals, and lots of outdoor space. You can really make of it what you want - come for a fancy meal or bring your kids and get some ice cream, play on the swings and check out the animals. I love the idea of this place. When my friends and I arrived, we attempted to get a table for lunch. It was a Sunday and was very busy. We were told that it would take about 30-45 minutes, and we put our name on the list. In the meantime, we got drinks (coffee for some of us, Bloody Marys for others, both of which were delicious). After 45 minutes or so, we started to get tired of waiting. Upon review of the menu, we realised that it was pricey (average main was mid-$30s) and seemed like light fare (although I cannot confirm). Given the other options, we decided to buy food from the street-style stand. They were grilling various items, including a pork burger and grilled peppers, which I ordered. The peppers were delicious (some were spicy, some were not). The pork burger was so-so. In the end, while I liked the atmosphere of the place a lot, I was slightly upset that the restaurant wait was so long and the food from the grill mostly average. If you go, you must have a car. It is a short drive (but not walkable) outside of Byron Bay.

    Decent playground for kids

    Stop here on the way to the Gold Coast from Sydney. 20 mins from Byron Bay lighthouse. This place serves fresh farm to table food and offers wine and beer. When you have been driving with kids under 5 years old, it helps that they have a playground, farm with chickens, horses, pigs and lots of grassy area where they can run around for a bit before we had to drive again. We ordered the mussels and pork belly and were happy with the dishes. Kids had pasta with cheese. I would highly recommend stopping here. Prices are a little high but quality of the food is worth it.

    Great atmosphere and beautiful place
    Catalina L.

    Amazing atmosphere and beautiful food, so creative too! We arrived at a super busy time for lunch but were put on the wait list and sat to wait comfortably. We were called within 10min which was great. Food was really good and you can just tell how fresh it is. I ordered the pate which was an entree but just what I needed. The smoothies are delicious (all without sugar, and raw beautiful ingredients). I love that they farm everything and it's all sustainable. Makes a big difference when making a choice on where to eat and prices are about the same as anywhere else. On the weekend they have live music which is so good! Lots of kids around as it's a family place :)

    A sensational place to visit. With a sustainable, ethical and organic vision this place is what food is all about. The food is A1, yet dining there has that 'flying under the radar' feel. It has MUCH more on offer other than a fantastic menu (changes seasonally) such as farm tours, fresh fruit & veg., a bakery, licensed bar and a providore with spreads, jams, sauces, cook books etc etc. It is no doubt the best place to take the kids. It has a playground, lawns/paddocks, animals and more.

    Loved the ambiance- food of course - but the coffee notes and the bread and butter pudding were the best! A definite stop over and close to Byron Bay

    So we went for lunch, which you can't book for - the queue was about a 30min wait - but boys was the food worth it. The sourdough was out of this world and the homemade butter was soooo smooth. We had 2 main dishes - the fish wings which had an Asian twist with grapefruit and the lamb curry, the meat melted in your mouth. We complemented the meal with the Farm Salad all locally grown produce. To ensure the meal was eased into our stomachs we covered it with a lovely Pino Grigio - crisp and delicious - never drinking Sav Blanc again! If you can put up with queues then this is a must - oh and buy your sourdough load before they sell out.

    The farm salad and mushroom dish together with crusty sourdough bread and creamy butter went down a treat.

With amazing coffee, and a pork saddle I could make love to, lunch here on a summer's day is simply divine. Beautifully prepared food, sourced from local suppliers, you can really taste the difference. These aren't peas from a tin, but perfectly cooked garden fresh peas that burst with flavour. The street is full, the restaurant is busy, so I guess it's no secret after all. I've been meaning to come here for a while and am glad I made the trek. Check out the attached deli and bakery too if you have the time (make the time!)

In a way Harvest is quite similar to Three Blue Ducks, the restaurant we dined in on previous night, as they both source the freshest and best ingredients locally. If you have decided to come here, you are expected to pay more than elsewhere because of the care and love they have put into sourcing these fresh ingredients. We thought the quality of the food these two restaurants have provided were very similar. We have enjoyed the oysters, fish of the day for two, which was barramundi, and the grilled pumpkin and fermented onions. Harvest is perhaps slightly more creative with their flavours. However, we received much more professional and attentive service from Harvest. Harvest is definitely worth the drive from Byron Bay if you are prepared to pay more.
