Dolphin Watch Cafe By the bay is a cafe in Nelson Bay. We don't yet have enough signals to confirm whether dogs are allowed. It's best to check with the venue before visiting with your dog. Just 100m away, Nelson Bay Foreshore Reserve is a great nearby park for a walk with your dog.
Had the fish, calamari and chips- all delicious and tasted fresh! Cooked perfectly and crunchy. Great location away from the centre of town too.
Even if I tried to enjoy this..service and management were rude and dismissive. Such a beautiful area and the overall rudeness ruins it. I watched so many people purchase from this Cafe one would would think some gratitude and a smile wouldn't go astray.
The best fish and chips in the bay. The chips were my fav, crunchy and seasoned so well. Homemade tartare sauce also very good. Pricing is great and portions are very generous! Cant beat the location either
We come every morning with my little daughter to have breakfast here. I must say - this is the best Cafe around to have morning food and coffee ! Very delicious food, the portions are large, and very fresh . Also the Chef-cook makes jam by himself from fresh berries , He really cooked with love ! Many Thanks to the Black Man Chef for the delicious breakfast !!
I had a great time at Dolphin Watch Cafe in Nelson Bay, NSW! The people there were super nice and everything we bought was worth the price. The cafe felt cozy and old-fashioned, which was really cool. Plus, it’s right by the beach and looks out over the boats, so we enjoyed some amazing views. We ordered fish and chips, a burger, and calamari and chips. Everything tasted really good and fresh. It was just the right amount of food for the price, too. If you’re ever in Nelson Bay, you should definitely stop by Dolphin Watch Cafe. It’s a great place for families and anyone who wants tasty traditional Aussie beach food with a beautiful view.
