Waterside Dining With waterside breakfast haunts it can be as much about the view out the window as what's on the plate. Morning is the perfect time day to show off Sydney to a visitor: For somewhere you can consume caffeine, eat something and dangle your legs over the water, Seasalt Cafe + Kiosk perched above the water at Clovelly Beach, has a lovely north facing setting.

Mietta's Australian Restaurants Review June 2008 This is one of the best locations in the Eastern Suburbs. Looking over Clovelly beach, stirring a coffee, one can’t help feeling a little smug. After all, here you are dining a few metres from the water, at a relaxed restaurant that doesn’t care if you are wearing a swimsuit and thongs, and you’re still only paying high-end cafe prices. De Groots Best Restaurants , January 2008
"If you need some salt air to sharpen your taste-buds, you won't get much closer than this with the little bay dazzling in the sunlight, its the perfect place to breakfast or lunch al fresco in summer or winter..... And if that weren't enough there's a very good wine list."
"This lovely seaside cafe is the place to drop in...A good natured feel that will have you smiling even without a swim. Heated in winter, the place smartens up over lunch..its time to open a bottle of wine and enjoy the park and the ocean views."
"At night , the room opens to balmy breezes and the beachy feel continues as streetlights shimmer across the water, scuba divers' torches glow below and local families gather for Seasalt's imaginative menu...The young enthusiastic team are eager to please - and if popularity is any measure, they do so admirably"
"By now we realised that there was real talent in the kitchen"
"very much the idyllic seaside spot...Seasalt's serves up just the sort of food you want in these surrounds. Standouts include beer battered fish and chips, seasalt fish cakes with chive mayo, a tasty steak sandwich and angel hair pasta with king prawns and shiitake mushrooms.There's a short but sweet well priced wine list"
"fantastic food with a fantastic view"
"There are few more idyllic locations.. kissed by ocean spray and seasalt...this smart establishment (has) a wise lip-smacking menu".
"The heady combination of salt air, quality ingredients and beautifully balanced flavours and textures has turned me into a restless eating machine."
"Very good mod Oz food served in a smart cafe where its ok to eat wearing little more than your towel and a smattering of sand from the beach."
"The perfect spot for breakfast, lunch or dinner."
"What a recipe for success. Take a place that seats 90 diners, inside and al fresco, overlooking a petite inlet and beach at the far end of Clovelly Road, refit Burton Katon Halliday. Garnish with dishes such as grilled octopus with charred radicchio, black olives and aioli, sugar cured trout with horseradish, pan fried quail with eggplant and mint salad or rag pasta with pumpkin, peas and salsa verde. What else could you want?" |
