Tried the smashed avocado and bacon and egg roll. Absolutely loved it! The smashed avocado in particular was yummy! And having breakfast with such a beautiful view was divine 🤩 Definitely coming here again! Great service by the staff , kudos to the team!❤️
Cute covered shack that serves breakfast, lunch and dinner. Great spot to people watch or look at the Hastings River. Had a flat white and a bacon and egg roll for 21 aud.
We just had some drinks when we got to Port Macquarie. It's a lovely spot, right on the water and decorated beautifully. We had bubbles and and some of their recommended margarita cocktails. It was amazing, we'd totally come back to this great beach spot!
Only place I’ve gone where you can get a cocktail in a coconut 🍹+🥥!!! Both cocktails were in a world of their own, and as a seasonal cocktailer… well.. simply sublime‼️ Special commendations to the handsome bearded bartender who whipped up a special apple and elderberry drink, what a king 👑🍎!!
(3.5 stars) When the restaurant at Rydges Port Macquarie couldn’t make a barista coffee before 7am (despite claiming they open at 6.30am) we ventured just beyond the property to Little Shack. With the feel of an island bar, this indoor-outdoor space wraps itself around a salt and wind tolerant Norfolk Island pine (rather than a coconut palm). Windbreaks make it winter-friendly, with festooned fairy lights beating the early morning gloom. Facing onto the Port Hasting River, it comes into full sun later in the day. Barista-made Will & Co coffees ($5.50/regular) were no problem here. The chilli mushroom burrito ($18) revolves around tasty sautéed buttered mushrooms. There’s also creamy scrambled eggs, a hash brown for body, and smoked tomato chutney for some tang, plus a pot of guacamole I didn’t touch. While you do have to ask rather than see gluten-free options marked on the menu, my dining companion felt catered to with bacon and egg tacos ($17.50/2). Loaded with scrambled eggs, Bangalow bacon and charred chorizo, and lashed with chipotle aioli, they’re a decent protein hit. It was only let down (like my own breakfast) by oxidised pots of pre-prepared guacamole.
