5 Little Pigs is a popular restaurant in Huskisson, known for its delicious flavors and inviting atmosphere. It offers a variety of cuisines including Modern Australian, Cafe, Asian, Bakery, Italian, Indian, Japanese, and Pizza. The restaurant has received high ratings and positive reviews for its food and service. Additionally, it is pet-friendly with easy access to the dog-friendly beach nearby.
We found ourselves at 5 Little Pigs in Huskisson for brekkie, drawn in by the crowd gathered out front and the smell of good coffee wafting down the street. It’s got that classic coastal café charm — a little bit rustic, a little bit cool, and full of locals and visitors who clearly know this is the spot to start the day. 🍳 First up was the mushroom omelette — fluffy and folded with buttery sautéed mushrooms, dill, and parmesan. The dill added this unexpected freshness that cut through the richness in the best way. Super simple but so well done. Comforting without being heavy. 🦀 The spanner crab toast was definitely the standout — fresh, delicate crab piled onto thick-cut sourdough with all the right creamy, citrusy notes. It was light, a little fancy, and something you don’t see everywhere. One of those dishes that makes you slow down and savour every bite. 🍌 We couldn’t resist finishing with a slice of banana bread, toasted and perfectly caramelised on the outside, soft and cakey inside. The kind you keep picking at even when you’re full. ☕️ Coffee was smooth and strong, just how we like it — and the staff were friendly without being over the top, keeping things moving even with the morning rush. 5 Little Pigs is one of those breakfast spots that feels effortless but delivers big. Thoughtful food, great coffee, and just the right amount of local personality. We’ll be back next time we’re in town.

🐷☕ Simple Pleasures at 5 Little Pigs 🍞☕ Stopped by 5 Little Pigs in Huskisson for a light morning bite, and it hit the spot in the most comforting way. I had their fruit toast with whipped ricotta and honey — warm, crispy edges, perfectly spiced fruit, and that cloud-like ricotta paired with a gentle drizzle of honey. Sweet, creamy, and satisfying without being heavy. It’s the kind of breakfast that feels like a quiet hug. Paired it with a strong black coffee, and the balance was just right — no frills, just good honest flavours in a chill, relaxed setting. Highly recommend for anyone after a cosy, satisfying start to the day. Sometimes, it’s the simplest dishes that leave the best impression ✨

The fruit toast is very good, well worth it! The eggs on toast, however, are not toasted and come with too much butter (maybe it would be better if the butter came on the side). The avo side is just a piece of peeled avo, not prepared in any way. The service is great and so is the atmosphere.

One of the best breakfasts during my stay. There's a lot of butter in the eggs, which makes them taste amazing, and the flat white is a hit.

Such a great experience! Whether you are local like us or are wanting to experience Australia for the first time by boat I would highly recommend! We saw whales and dolphins on our cruise and got information about the rich history of the area. Word of warning: if you have sea sickness or emetophobia steer clear, I had vomit on my shoes by the end of the trip.

Our Whale Eco Cruise on a rainy morning was absolutely unforgettable. Our staff (Capt Hamish and Paula) were delightful - friendly, pleasant, informative and funny. ☺️ We wound up being blessed with a curious pod of three (including Mom and baby!) that swam around us for a good long time after boat motor was cut and we were just floating along. Loved every rainy second of it!

We had a whale of a time!!! An unforgettable day. Heaps better than we expected. Whales were popping up all over the place but the big surprise was the cliffs. Wow. If you’d just come to see the cliffs you’d be deliriously happy. They were sensational. The boat and crew were great. We had good food and coffee at the very comfortable wharf. Happy people were everywhere. Bravo Jervis Bay Wild! Spectacular! Thank you.
John G — Google review
A Must-Do Experience in Jervis Bay! We’ve travelled to Jervis Bay 3 times now specifically to go whale watching with Jervis Bay Wild, and once again, they did not disappoint. The crew are consistently friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about what they do. Their commentary strikes a great balance between educational and entertaining. We were lucky enough to spot a couple of pods of humpback whales, including calves, and they stayed around long enough for everyone on board to enjoy the moment without rushing. Traveller Tip: Even if it’s warm on land, bring a jacket (preferably waterproof). We went out at 1pm on a 26-degree day, and I was still grateful for my cardigan once the sea breeze picked up. Better to be prepared so you can relax and enjoy the view. If you're considering a whale tour in Jervis Bay, don’t hesitate. We'll happily be back again.

I went on the Jervis Bay Passage yesterday, and it was absolutely AMAZING. What a fantastic experience. The sun shone, the sea was calm, and just sailing around all the Bay was wonderful. As we went by areas of interest, our captain gave very informative and interesting stories. The high cliffs by the lighthouse were spectacular. When we saw a Sun Fish, he drifted back so that we could watch it. Nothing was too much trouble. We saw a few seals too and the dolphins greeted us back into harbour. An experience I will never forget. Thank you.
Jeanette T — Google review
Fantastic afternoon. Saw lots of whales. Even had a pod surface about 10 mts from the boat. We also got up close to the Jervis bay cliffs and cave systems. Really beautiful. Small boat but this got us up close which a bigger boat wouldn’t have. Friendly crew. All in all recommended

Had an amazing time this morning on the Eco Whale trip. Highly recommend!! We saw many whales, even one breaching and closely circling the boat. It was unreal! Saw some dolphins too! The staff were also super lovely and welcoming.Especially Ella who made us feel like VIPs and was so helpful, sharing local info with tourists. Thank you so much for an unforgettable morning! 5 stars!!! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Elizabeth T — Google review
This was a nice cruise experience, filled with pure rainbows surrounding the bay area from the light rain. And we saw some dolphin activity! 🐬👍 Although, I would not suggest booking cruises in the winter, unless you'd like to witness some bright rainbows! It can easily be cancelled due to harsh weather conditions, and our experience was not the opposite. It was incredibly foggy and rainy, abit difficult to capture any sealife, though when we did- it was for a short period of time. Slightly underwhelming to say the least, since we couldn't venture into the open ocean or the cliff sides. Still a nice experience overall, I haven't been on a cruise in many years.

The restaurant has garnered positive reviews and is frequently mentioned as one of the best places to eat in Jervis Bay.
Delicious and fresh seafood with crispy, golden-battered fish and perfectly cooked chips! The shrimp were crunchy and flavorful, and the tacos were fresh and well-seasoned. Excellent service from the staff, making the experience even better. Highly recommend for a great fish and chips meal!
Mandy C — Google review
I wouldn’t agree with world famous but the good wasn’t bad. We ordered the Family Basket as there was 5 of us and it had a variety of items included such as fish cocktails, seafood sticks, calamari, prawn cocktails, chips etc for $65. It was a good 10 minute wait after ordering which wasn’t too bad as it was busy. The good was hot and tasty but the batter was a bit greasier than I like and the chips had next to no salt on them, even though I asked for extra chicken salt and we were given a very light smattering of regular salt. Over all, not too bad for the price as the portion was huge but also a little disappointing at the same time.
SARGES’ F — Google review
Pretty standard fish and chip shop that's always busy (but likely because of its location on the main tourist strip rather than because of standout food). The fish is fine, though the batter is on the heavier side, and the chips are just chips. We’ve been coming here for years out of habit/tradition/a weird sense of loyalty, and the quality has stayed the same, not better, not worse. They do branch out with things like chowder, tacos, and burritos and I always appreciate somewhere that diversifies their menu, but most of these items were pretty average as well. I must say though that the prawn burrito looked super pretty and had good flavour, but I was let down because inside there were only tiny pieces of prawns in it and most of the filling was white rice.
J — Google review
The foods were well balanced. However, the long line made the experience feel less enjoyable. The portion sizes were decent, though not quite enough to justify the cost. Overall, it’s a place worth visiting if you’re willing to wait and spend a bit extra for quality food.

Long wait and not super worth it. The battered fish was alright. We got the battered swordfish. It tasted fresh but there was no seasoning so all we tasted was as oil, batter and fish. Would’ve been better if there was sauce or salt or something. The tiger prawns were ok.

Had a fantastic dining experience! Cooking my own eye fillet steak on a sizzling stone plate was a fun and unique touch, letting me enjoy it exactly how I like it.

We were greeted and shown to our table by the owner. Staff friendly, food delicious there was a mistake made with our order, but it was quickly fixed & staff apologised. The staff explained the process of cooking our steak & seafood on the hot stone and it was delicious.

Food was delicious, came out hot and all at once and serving sizes were massive. Only qualm was that it took about half an hour until our food came out, and there were lots of people who came in after us who were getting food much faster than we were. It would have been nice to have waitstaff reassure us that on its way or that it will be a bit of a longer wait.

Was really appalled by the racist host of this restaurant. He dismissed us abruptly when we arrived 10 min early and when we went back for our 8pm booking, he refused to seat us inside even though we booked for an inside table. He rudely pointed to the table outside saying that’s your table and said “and don’t be expecting any service any time soon”. The manager was nice but did not apologise for his employee’s behaviour. The food itself was average, decent portions but nothing special. I would recommend dining somewhere else.
Lesley W — Google review
We had a memorable, interactive dining experience at Stonegrill. The $50 set menu offers excellent value, allowing you to choose an entrée, main, and dessert, with a wide variety of options and generous portions. The chili prawns, recommended by the owner, were juicy and packed with flavor. The calamari rings, served hot and crunchy, were enjoyable, though they could have used a bit more seasoning. For mains, I opted for the steak, while my husband chose the seafood. Both dishes came with a choice of sauce and either a salad or pasta salad. The steak was tender and melted in my mouth, and I appreciated the interactive element of cooking it to my liking on the grill. The salad, however, could have benefited from more dressing. We couldn’t resist the wildberry cheesecake for dessert, which was a perfect, satisfying end to the meal. Overall, it was a good experience, though I felt there were areas that could benefit from refinement, particularly in terms of bolder flavors. If the restaurant leans more into the direction of their standout chili prawns, I believe the future of this establishment holds great potential.

I follow their page on instagram and it seemed like a great place to visit, when I was down from Sydney. It’s ok, I guess. I didn’t have any of the hot food, I just went in last week to grab a chocolate eclair, which had fresh cream in it and was tasty, would love to see the option of custard and cream in an eclair like they do up here in Sydney, and or a chocolate cream inside which is super delicious when you get one done up here in Sydney. I was going to go in for a vanilla slice but noticed the tops of them didn’t have the passion fruit glaze that I love on the top of mine, so that’s why I bought a chocolate eclair instead.

Food is good. Avoid during heavy tourist times. Last couple of weeks service has been a bit off, maybe new owners we suspect but definitely worth waits. Amendement do not order milkshakes or ice drinks. 20 min wait and a reminder to them again. Excellent food and coffees come a decent pace but 3 separate times have finished food before milkshakes. They do taste really good though.

Delicious pies. I tried the pepper $6.80, fantastic and the original $6, a bit salty for me. Fully loaded pies., with rich gravy and good chunks of beef. The toasted ham and cheese croissant was enjoyed and the vanilla slice was an excellent finisher. If in town go here for your pie fix. Very good!

Atmosphere: The Husky Bakery in Huskisson, NSW, offers a cozy atmosphere, ideal for enjoying a pie. The simple decor and friendly ambiance create a comfortable setting for a casual dining experience. (They also do alot of other tasty treats and food but I’m all about the pies this time) Selection: While "The Husky Pie" is a standout, I chose the Beef Stroganoff pie. The Husky Bakery offers a decent variety of pies to suit different tastes. From traditional options to some creative twists, there's a fair selection available. Crust and Pastry: The crust and pastry was decently executed, providing a satisfactory base for the filling. While not exceptional, they maintain a good balance of texture and flavor. Meat: The Beef Stroganoff filling was flavorful, showcasing a decent blend of spices. The meat is tender, although the overall seasoning could be more pronounced. Overall Taste (6.5/10): The pie offered an average taste experience, with a rating of 6.5/10. While it delivers on some aspects, such as tenderness and flavor, there's room for improvement in terms of overall balance and seasoning. Service: The service at The Husky Bakery is friendly and efficient, contributing positively to the dining experience. Value: Considering the quality and portion size, The Husky Bakery provides reasonable value for its pies. In conclusion, The Husky Bakery offers an average pie experience receiving a 6.5/10 rating. While it has its strengths, such as friendly service and reasonable value, there are areas, like flavor balance and seasoning, where improvements could enhance the overall dining experience.

Hot showers, dog friendly, park has its own boat ramp.. (and ample trailer parking) Large powered sites.. clean amenities.. Downside, pool and spa isn't heated. On-site coffee in the morning.. The water craft shown is Hobie Cat MIRAGE TANDEM ISLAND There is a dealership 800m away from the Park.. These are our own craft but you can hire other kayak craft from the office.. Small town 1.8km away has ice cream shop, the rsl club had amazing food, and dominoes that deliver..... Vincettia is a larger town with coles/wooly/kebabs etc but maybe 10kms away... On the water channel it was maybe a 15min paddle to Huskisson, the bay was amazing to sail in.. The parks onsite Staff were extraordinarily helpful taking me to my site and assisted parking my caravan, and were quick to attend anything else that came up.. They have a fire pit and they supply the fire wood logs too... They have one rubbish skip bin at the front gate which is good both leaving and coming back (hide evidence of food)... Would recommend.. Will likely return

Waited half an hour just for coffee, got to 40 minutes and still no food so we asked how long it would be, was advised another 20 minutes. They weren’t even busy so we got a refund and left. The chef looked very unenthusiastic and incapable of going faster. For a place with approximately 30-40 people in it, it should be a lot quicker for service.

Came here for breakfast twice on beautiful hot mornings at the Portside Cafe which sits right on the water opposite the beach entry into Huskisson. The view on a beautiful morning is just divine so location wise is just perfect. The food was pretty good overall but havent tried many of the dishes yet which means i may come back and review this post. We had smashed avo on toast, hash browns, big breaky, a breaky wrap and some juices. They were tasty with a good serving although they arent that big so you may want to order more if you're mega hungry. Price wise is ok but could be cheaper for the portions you get. Check out the photos and the view! We will be back to try more.

I very seldom give a bad review; I can usually find some positives. The one positive here was that my husband's meal was tasty. 45 minutes after ordering I still had not received my meal (hubby had finished his). When it was eventually brought to me, it was wrong and I did not have the time to wait while they prepared a new one. Staff were disinterested and not customer focused at all.

We didn’t see the poor reviews until We had ordered, and were pleasantly surprised. The meal and service were both good. Folks should give it a try.

DO NOT COME HERE. We waited 45 mins in an almost empty restaurant. We should have left but were feeding our toddler. We asked repeatedly where our food was and was assured 3 times that it was "coming" or it was "being plated up". I can't believe we accepted the food especially when some other table also made a complaint and left without eating. Food was sad and so was the restaurant. As you can tell, the place was not busy.

We came for a late breakfast and to enjoy the view. Good prices and friendly service. There was a wait for the food to be served but in all fairness we were warned there was a wait when ordering and you could see the staff were busy. Meals were delicious. We had the whale of a breakfast, which had plenty of bacon, eggs, a lovely smoke chorizo, hash brown, tomato, mushroom and spinach on sourdough. Also had the eggs benedict on salmon which had 2 poached eggs with a fresh tasting sauce also. Nice meals.

Nestled in the charming heart of Huskisson, Pasta & Pizza Peter Eva Italian restaurant is a delightful haven for lovers of authentic Italian cuisine. This inviting eatery specializes in mouthwatering wood-fired pizzas, delectable pasta dishes, and a variety of antipasti that will transport your taste buds straight to Italy. With both dine-in and takeaway options available, it caters to every dining preference.
We had a great night dining out here. Each night it is very full and the vibe is great! Service was great, as was the food. We got Arancini and Bruschetta to start, followed by broccolini on the side (which was incredible), along with the prawn pizza and Veggie pizza. Cocktails are great. I also tried the Tiramisu cocktail!🍸 Highly recommend!

Food was great. Sydney City quality restaurant food full of flavour. A little bit expensive if you are taking a family to eat but definitely recommend their pizza and pasta. Service was accommodating during a busy night and were treated professionally with food arriving in a timely manner. Atmosphere and decor is lovely and comfortable. Wish more restaurants and cafes in the Shoalhaven region had these standards and quality food. Will revisit for sure as a Shoalhaven resident.

We had dinner here last night with o reservation and it was busy. Table outside was lovely. Between 4 ppl we shared 2 pizzas and 2 pastas plus a rocket salad. The kids loved the spaghetti colognes and we loved the mushroom ravioli. All of the food was delicious and in fact much better than we expected. I would highly recommend and will be back again. Oh and the service was awesome too!

We always love our evenings at Peter Eva’s and bring all of our visiting friends to dinner there. Last night the food was brilliant as usual but the animated conversations we had with Gabriel (owners son) about our Italian travels was the icing on the cake! He is a gem!

Everything was perfect as usual for my birthday on Tuesday night….my favourite place to eat. Peter & Eva & family are talented & just lovely, with wonderful staff.. An authentic Italian experience with unbeatable atmosphere, very homely & all by the wonderful Jervis Bay. Everyone should get to experience this at least once & if you are a local, this will soon become your local restaurant. Whether it’s a pizza-night (and their Pizzas are THE best wood -fired pizzas around) or if you are after something more, because their Gnocchi, Risotto & Pasta dishes are exceptional…especially the seafood, you will leave happy. A seafood dish & garlic wood-fire pizza with a side chilli oil, finished with one of their homemade Italian desserts is my favourite.. They also have delicious cocktails, wines & good coffee. I could go on & on really, but my whole family agree, Peter Eva and is an outstanding restaurant!.

Beautiful meal and Peter and Eva were delightful and very generous. It rained (not too hard) outside on the footpath and we were forced to finish slightly earlier than we had hoped - and after enjoying two very nice dishes and good wine. Eve was most apologetic and of course it had nothing to do with how nice our night had been and even gifted us a couple of very nice cannoli's which we enjoyed later. We'll definitely go back when we're next in Huskisson.

Italian restaurant
Pasta Buoy is a delightful new gem nestled in the heart of Huskisson, Jervis Bay, on Owen Street. This charming eatery exudes Mediterranean charm with its inviting courtyard and a menu brimming with fresh, handmade pasta crafted daily. Owners Steve and Jess have infused their deep-rooted family heritage in the restaurant industry into this unique dining experience that beautifully marries traditional Italian flavors with a relaxed coastal atmosphere.
We stopped by for a quick lunch with our son and daughter in law. They had the pasta which was outstanding in all aspects. Generous portions and perfect texture. We opted for a Caprese salad as a light lunch and it was the best we've had, including many in Italy, which we visit regularly. The service was very friendly and welcoming. Will be back for the pasta - that's a promise...
Derek M — Google review
Pasta Buoy has a unique concept that perfectly matches the relaxed seaside vibe of Huskisson. Don’t be fooled by the takeaway paper bowls or the buzzer pick-up system — the flavors (and the prices!) are far above casual dining standards. The pasta is handmade, super fresh, and pairs really well with the sauces. The service is quite slow, but the dishes come out steaming hot and freshly made. The outdoor seating area is lovely and inviting, though unfortunately, there’s not much shelter when it rains. We tried the Buoy Ragu Lumache — not the most surprising dish, but a solid choice with plenty of short rib, great for meat lovers. The Squid Ink Spaghetti with seafood, cherry tomatoes, garlic cream, and wine flavors was full of depth and easily our favorite of the two.

the Cacio e Pepe Gnocchi and the Carbonara were absolutely delicious! they were rly rich and creamy!! perfectly cooked and so satisfying 💕 highly recommend this place if you’re craving authentic and comforting pasta dishes!
Natalie C — Google review
Really disappointed with the food here. It's rated so high and was looking forward to some luxury pasta. The first few bites are tasty but as you get through it you realise that the sauce is just almost completely salt and it's really overpowering. We got the pesto and the carbonara, which I understand obviously have an element of salt to the sauces as is natural, but there's clearly lots of added salt which is way too much. For the expensive price you pay ($60 for 2 bowls of pasta), I would expect much higher quality. For the quality you get it's maybe worth $15 a bowl. The pasta itself is good but the sauce leaves a lot to be desired. On the plus side its a nice atmosphere with a great happy hour between 3-5 with $5 schooners.

Restaurant
The Gunyah Restaurant at Paperbark Camp is a renowned dining spot located in Huskisson, offering a romantic and intimate setting with candlelit dinners and a focus on seasonal set menus featuring native ingredients. The restaurant's fine dining treehouse ambiance provides a soft glow from flickering candles, while guests can enjoy the sounds of the surrounding bush. Additionally, visitors can partake in storytelling around the campfire with Gadhungal Murring.
We stayed three nights at Paperbark during the 2025 Easter long weekend,and we had breakfast and dinner included in our rate. At the time it's three course breakfast included a customisable main, and four course set dinner. Not everyone will agree on every dish of every meal, me included. However, we had the benefit of dining three days sampling different dishes, and overall I found the experience enjoyable. The restaurant is certainly targeting a fine dining experience and it's mostly there. The taste and the potion are well balanced. As for the former, some dishes are more awesome than others but it's a surprise everyday. The atmosphere is unquestionably a feature given its location. Probably a slight challenge for outside guests after dark. Otherwise, a memorable experience under the starlight next with camp fires nearby. The staff is well trained and very responsive. The kitchen is slightly overwhelmed so take your time and enjoy your meal. Not necessarily for the hungry souls. The drinks list is limited but the wines are good under the fainting candlelight while waiting for the next dish. I'd say it's definitely a great value addition for resort guests (or campers).

Hidden away at the end of a quiet dirt track just outside Nowra, Paperbark Camp feels like a secret waiting to be discovered. The elevated treetop setting is tranquil and secluded. Arrive a little early and you can enjoy a glass of local Shoalhaven wine by the fire pit outdoors or relax by the cozy indoor fireplace, which immediately sets the tone for the evening — warm, welcoming, and unhurried. The staff deserve a huge shout out, in particular Susie and Violet, who looked after us with warmth, humour, and genuine care. Their attentiveness elevated the whole experience and made the night feel like dining in a good friend’s home. The restaurant has recently moved to a set menu format. While some might miss the choice of à la carte, I found it refreshing to be guided through a menu that encouraged me to try dishes I might not normally order. Here’s how the Winter menu unfolded: Flatbread, Zatar Spice A perfect way to start: warm, soft bread carrying the bold, earthy kick of za’atar. Simple, rustic, and exactly what you want in that first bite. The optional sourdough was also outstanding — crusty, hearty, and served with rich butter. Mussels, Green Mango, Cucumber A bright, surprising dish where briny mussels were lifted by the sharp tang of green mango and the cooling freshness of cucumber. A clever balance of ocean and orchard. Pork Rillettes, Black Barley, Radicchio Described by our server as a deconstructed dumpling, an apt description of this deeply savoury pork, paired with the smoky chew of black barley and the slight bitterness of radicchio. Rich and hearty, yet with enough balance to keep it light. Charcoal Chicken, Roast Alliums, Koji (with rice, sambal, daikon) I’ll admit, chicken often feels like the mundane choice on a menu — but not here. Smoky from the charcoal, deeply flavoured with koji and sweet roasted alliums, it was exceptional. The accompaniments of rice, sambal, and daikon added both comfort and a little spark. Blackberry, Grapes, Umeshu, Granita A refreshing close to the meal. The sweet and tart notes of blackberry and grape combined beautifully with the plum wine’s depth, all sharpened by icy granita. It felt an odd choice for a winter menu but still very enjoyable. Paperbark Camp is a restaurant that surprises you from start to finish. From its peaceful bushland location to the warmth of its service, it feels special without ever being pretentious. The set menu approach works beautifully here, and the kitchen clearly takes pride in showcasing fresh, seasonal ingredients in thoughtful ways. If you’re anywhere near the Shoalhaven, make the short detour down that dirt track. What you’ll find at the end is one of the most memorable dining experiences in the region.

Beware: Said it has Ala carte online but you stuck to a 4 course set menu, they have addressed this constant back and forth change many times in comments. But the bigger problems is the inconsistency and holes in the food. We payed around $245 for a set menu with two non alcoholic drinks. Super small portions but the biggest problem was the mains. Over salted beef cheeks and under seasoned beetroot, the server said it would be an interesting surprise that she hopes we like but all in all it was too salty to eat. Sour dough ice cream was actually a pannacotta that wasn’t set properly and overly sweet. With bread crumbs on top. Restaurant boasts native ingredients with none on the menu. The food was confused and the flavours may have worked but it is the clear the chef couldn’t execute properly what he was trying to create. For that price to get such little food and for it to be so average is very disappointing.

We had a wonderful stay at Paperbark Camp. The check-in process was smooth and effortless, setting the tone for a relaxing getaway. The hospitality was exceptional, warm, generous, and genuinely welcoming throughout.

A truly memorable and refreshing experience in a stunning natural setting. 10/10. Would recommend. Looking forward to visiting again soon.

This was my 3rd time at The Gunyah over a number of years and I can honestly say it gets better every time. Our recent meal was fantastic; a delicious set menu of 4 courses, every one of which was sublime and intricate, with excellent service, a good drinks menu, including good non-alcoholic options, and reasonably priced, especially considering the quality. Thoroughly enjoyed spending my birthday here and look forward to visit number 4 already.

Went to The Gunyah Restaurant for a Anniversary dinner and was pleasantly surprised. The quality of the service and the atmosphere was excellent and the food was exceptional. It was a set menu (Winter), and the food was fresh, full of flavour and cooked to perfection. I'm not sure about other nights but I can say that going there on a Sunday night for dinner, the atmosphere was just right for a nice cozy meal. The service was friendly and professional with a description of each portion of the meal explained when it arrived at the table. I will be looking at going again on the next special occasion which will be a new menu. Check the menu before you book to ensure it's the right food for you but if it is, I'm confident you shouldn't be disappointed.

Been here a few times for breakfasts and dinners. Breakfast is yummy and great coffee. Dinner was excellent too. My only disappointment was that if you stay for the weekend, the menu options are the same on both evenings for vegans so you have to eat the same dinner 2 nights in a row. The atmosphere is super, staff are so friendly and accommodating and this place is just magical! A really special place for a visit and would highly recommend

For day 2, these 7 places should be enough to fill your day with something exciting to do in Jervis Bay. Start the day with Cooked Goose on Hyams and make your way through the city to get to Cape St George Lighthouse. This should take about 8 hours of your day.

Cooked Goose on Hyams is a charming café located just behind the beach, offering a bright and relaxed atmosphere with comfortable pillow-topped banquettes. It's the perfect spot for enjoying gourmet coffee or a delightful breakfast. The cafe is conveniently situated only a 3-minute walk from the beach, making it an ideal stop before or after a day of walking and swimming in the 2km stretch of pristine shoreline. Additionally, visitors can explore excellent snorkeling opportunities at the northern end of the beach.
Charming coffee shop with a lot of space and both indoor and outdoor seating. Loved the almon and orange cake. Coffee was bitter, which I'm not a fun of but it's a personal preference. Also loved how they served my "to go" coffee on my cup!! Definitely recommend!

Nice little café near Hyams Beach with lots of vegetarian and vegan options for breakfast and lunch. We had the pesto beans and corn fritters—both were tasty, though a bit more salad would’ve been nice. The coffee was great too. There’s free street parking out front and a few parking spots right in front of the cafe, but it can be hard to find a spot during busy times. It's highly recommended to book a table in advance. Hyams Beach and Little Hyams Beach are both about 4 to 5 mins walking distance from here.

Popped into the Cooked Goose last Sunday morning for breakfast with my daughter and her partner. Great to be able to say it was a delight: the staff were friendly and prompt, the coffee just right, the food tasty and well presented. Didn't have to wait long to be served, both on arrival and for the food. Reasonably priced as well. Ideal place for breakfast, especially on a sunny morning and the beauty of Hyams Beach a stones throw away.

We had an amazing tour of Callala Bay with Dane and got to discover a beautiful part of the Bay we had never visited before. Dane has a wealth of local knowledge and picked out a route that was perfect for the conditions. We learned so much on our tour, from local history to wildlife to the best spots to visit on our trip. The tour was a highlight for us, but Dane's tips also continued to add to our time in Jervis Bay after the tour was over. The homemade cookies and the photos were a very nice personal touch. Highly recommend Sea Kayak Jervis Bay! Hope to be back soon.

My husband and I spent Saturday morning with Dane on the sea kayaks in Callala Bay and surrounds. I honestly could not recommend this experience enough, it was one of the funnest things we've ever done! Dane is an incredible, knowledgeable and kind guy, makes for a very fun morning! His homemade morning tea was delicious! Just to top the day off we got to paddle out to a pod of dolphins! He took photos and videos of it all! If you're on the fence about trying this, don't be, incredible! We will 1000% be back soon.

Our tour with Dane was the highlight of our time in Jervis Bay! From start to finish, he made the day feel personal, relaxed, and full of discovery. It was clear he genuinely wanted us to have the best possible experience, regardless of what the Bay had for us that day. He shared so much local knowledge about the area, wildlife, and history while keeping everything fun and engaging. The bay itself was stunning, and spending the day on the crystal-clear water and the white sand beaches was epic. I can't imagine a better way to enjoy the water and beaches of Jervis Bay. Dane went above and beyond capturing photos and videos for us, so we could enjoy the moment without worrying about missing a single memory. He provided a google drive folder filled with photos and videos the evening after our tour which included videos of the animals we saw as well. I loved sharing these with my family! When Dane found out my sister and I were traveling down the coast, he gave us a list of must-see places and things to do. We had some very cool experiences that we would have missed out on otherwise because of his recommendations. He also had a list for the area that he shared. I’ve told everyone I’ve met in Australia that this is a must-do experience, and I’ll absolutely be booking again when we return. If you’re considering it, just book and enjoy! You’ll be so glad you did.

Exceptional scenery, even better experience with Dane! Back for the second time due to my 5 year old insisting we go kayaking again it was a no brainer to get back in contact with Sea Kayak Jervis Bay. Beyond Dane's remarkable local knowledge and knack for finding the best beach morning tea spots around (and providing the best cakes), he has a wonderful ability to cater the experience to all. A fantastic way to take in all that Jervis Bay has on offer!

Myself and my 14yo had an incredible day out with Dane. His professionalism, his quality gear, and his deep knowledge of the area were all top notch. Which was a massive bonus for us as we aren’t regular kayakers! He knew where to take us and what to look out for, and we were lucky with to have perfect weather AND to watch a huge pod of dolphins swim and play while out in the water. Could not have been a better day, thanks Dane.

We saw dolphins, pelicans and even a sea eagle, then pulled up on a quiet beach for morning tea. The homemade pear bread and cookies were honestly better than anything you’d get at a café. It was a memorable experience for both of us and a great way to spend time together. Highly recommend.

Dolphin Watch Cruises Jervis Bay offers a 90-minute cruise that takes visitors into the heart of Jervis Bay to search for its 100 resident bottlenose dolphins. While dolphin sightings are not guaranteed, the chances of spotting them from a boat are higher than from the shore. The tour provides educational value as well, with informative commentary about Jervis Bay from the captain. Additionally, passengers can enjoy fantastic ocean views during the cruise.
If you're looking for a memorable and breathtaking experience in the stunning Jervis Bay region, Dolphin Watch Cruises is an absolute gem. I recently had the pleasure of joining one of their cruises, and it truly exceeded all expectations. From the moment we boarded the boat, the staff's warm welcome and enthusiasm set the tone for an incredible experience. The crew was friendly, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about the local marine life, especially the dolphins. They provided fascinating insights into the area's ecosystem and the habits of the dolphins that call Jervis Bay home. The highlight, of course, was the dolphins themselves. We were lucky enough to see multiple pods of dolphins swimming alongside the boat, leaping and playing in the crystal-clear waters. The views were simply spectacular, with the scenic beauty of Jervis Bay adding to the magic of the encounter. The boat was comfortable, and there was plenty of space to move around for the best vantage points, whether you’re on the deck or inside. The cruise also offers a relaxing atmosphere, with plenty of opportunities to enjoy the surrounding beauty of the bay and its pristine waters. Whether you're a wildlife enthusiast, a photographer, or simply someone looking to unwind in nature, this cruise is a perfect way to spend a few hours. All in all, Dolphin Watch Cruises in Jervis Bay provides an exceptional way to connect with nature and experience the incredible marine life in the area. It’s an unforgettable experience that I highly recommend to anyone visiting this picturesque part of New South Wales. Whether you're a local or a visitor, this cruise is definitely worth it!

We joined a dolphin-watching cruise in Jervis Bay and while we didn’t spot any dolphins during the actual cruise, we were lucky to see one near the jetty just before boarding—which was still a nice surprise! The crew were friendly and knowledgeable, and the boat ride itself was relaxing with beautiful views of the bay. Even without many dolphins, it was a lovely way to spend the afternoon on the water. Would definitely try again—nature doesn’t always follow the schedule!

Crew is amazing and the tour was great. The crew are so caring, constantly asking how their guests are and ensuring that they could see the dolphins swimming near the boat. The tour purposefully and respectfully finds and follows the dolphins to allow everyone a great experience. We had such a good time that we also booked the whale watching tour a few days later. Thanks for having us !! We will be back for more.

A dolphin cruise without dolphins....I understand that they are animals and can't be persuaded to show up, but would've been nice if they mentioned where the dolphins could show up, and maybe wait a minute.

CHECK THE CANCELLATION POLICY BEFORE BOOKING. In spite of what the owner has responded in other reviews : it’s not normal, and who’s getting travel insurance for a couple of days down the coast?! Didn’t affect me personally but flagging for the unsuspecting. Staff were all lovely. Recent but dreary and cheap cosmetic refurb. Clearly have low expectations of their guests. Clean - not spotless, but fine. We stayed in the “deluxe twin”. Room gives “fugitive running from the FBI” vibes. Pics do not reflect the reality. Tiny postcard windows, minimal natural light - getting you ready for prison when the cops catch you maybe? Noise from the hose out pub that shares the alley was quite something. They love a fight. Parking is not controlled so we had to park a way away on the street on a busy public holiday weekend, locals use the car park, it’s a free for all. Quite specifically chose a place with parking for this reason, so a fail. Not a motel - no cooking facilities at all. Very basic. They appear to be linked with several other motels etc in the area. I would say they rely totally on location. You could do better. I also wouldn’t bother booking direct - get the rewards from a 3rd party that price matches, they do not give any consideration to direct booking as far as I could see.

Awesome location. Nice view if your balcony is facing the main street. Cooktop in the kitchen is switched off. There is no cooking allowed they said. They don't know why there are cooltops in some rooms. But if you'd like to order food, there are QR codes provided to a webpage which states the option is not available. You can still go out though.

I was rather desperate for an EV charge in Jervis bay and was turned away ungraciously. After speaking to a lady on the phone who said that I could use their EV charger while visiting the restaurant, I arrived and the lady at reception refused to let me charge the car and stated that the charger was only for overnight guests of the motel. I explained that I was desperate for a charge, but she was in an ungenerous mood. I would have been more than happy to move my car if a guest needed to recharge and I was also quite happy to sit in the restaurant and have lunch.

This is a warning. Do not stay here. The hotel manager was extremely rude. We were traveling with friends who were at a different hotel. Our youngest daughter was sleeping at their place but came to our room occasionally, and left with us for dinner. The manager charged us the $100 deposit a week after we left saying we had too many people using the facilities. Deceptive, fraudulent and just awful to tourists. Do NOT stay here.

Nature preserve
Blenheim Beach in Jervis Bay is a local favorite, offering a small cove-like setting with good amenities such as bathrooms and plenty of parking. It also provides access to the scenic Greenfields walking tracks and features play equipment for kids, rock platforms, and a charming creek for exploration. The beach is known for its beautiful white sandy shores and turquoise waters, making it an ideal spot for picnics with free picnic areas, BBQs, showers, and a children's playground available.
This is a fantastic little beach in a small sheltered part of Jervis Bay. A smaller beach with trees offering shade on the beach. As with other beaches in Jervis Bay, the water is incredibly clear and quite warm. The beach itself is made up of beautiful fine white sand Toilets, an outdoor shower, and ample parking are available. There is also a walking trail that starts in the car park that takes you to Hyams Beach.

Parking can be tough on a busy day but generally it's OK, and not a long walk from the street above. The beach is stunning and well protected with plenty of shade. Toilets and an outdoor shower are a nice bonus, many of the local beaches are stunning but don't have amenities.

Nice beach with lots of things to see. You can walk the promenade with a monument of falen soldiers. Very interesting and beautiful made, it has the shape of a ship when you look closely. You can book a mini 'cruise' that brings you to 2 places in the harbour region. They have sparkling wines and cheese on board. What's not to like. ;-) You can also walk the beach for a long way, you can come back over the footpath if you like. In the evening there is the main street with al the bars and restaurants. Good food!

Murrays Beach in Jervis Bay is a must-visit destination known for its stunning ivory sands and gentle turquoise waves. It's a perfect spot for water sports like snorkeling, scuba diving, kayaking, swimming, and stand-up paddleboarding. The beach is also home to fairy penguins on nearby Bowen Island. Families can enjoy the protected bay with clear waters and white sand, while self-guided walks around the area offer opportunities for exploration.
Beautiful spot. Better than hiams beach. More parking available too. Car park has toilets and taps to rinse. $20 fee for the national park. Pay by qr code. Short walk from car park along bush trail to beach about 100 metres. White sand. Turquoise water. Rain forest running down to the ocean. Sheltered from the south westerly wind. Some rocks for snorkelling.. I mean ... what more do you want??

This is the best place I've swam during my time in Australia. The National Park itself is beautiful, but this beach is a must. I was there on Aug 31 and it was the perfect temperature for swimming. Not many people in the water as it was still winter but I had no problem with the water temperature and managed to dry off in my bathing suit on the beach after.

Excellent white sand beach with clear blue waters and less waves… perfect for families and children… you will have plenty of car parking… compared to other beaches in Jarvis Bay area, this beach is less crowded… you can find kangaroos near beach

Murrays Beach is definitely one of my favorite beaches along the NSW coast. Although there’s a $20 fee per car for the Booderee National Park, it’s absolutely worth it. The water is crystal clear, and the whole beach feels like a tropical island. The waves are gentle, the sands are so white and soft, making it great for kids to play safely. The only downside is that during my last week visit, I noticed quite a few dead bees on the sand, which caused some people to get stung on their feet. But overall, it’s such an awesome spot to check out!
Tristan N — Google review
A beautiful beach located inside Booderee National Park with crystal clear water and white sand. A rather large public carpark is located to the west of the beach which is about 2 minutes walk. It's also where public toilets and rubbish bins are provided. The sheer size of the carpark is the first evidence of the beach's popularity. All public facilities are free but there is a $20 day pass for the national park. Given the beach is 8km from the gate there is no realistic alternative then arrive on wheels. There are bushwalking tracks nearby which can be combined into the same day activities. There are also many other popular beaches in the same national park which can be planned into the same trip. The Murrays Beach is protected by Bowen Island to the north and underwater sand banks all around to have gentle waves. The water is also shallow near the shore which is relatively safe. However, as with other beaches in Jervis Bay, the beach is not patrolled, so look out for each other. The beach is excellent for all kinds of water activities. Snorkeling can be done at the east end of the beach. Rock fishing is probably better done from the rocks beyond Murrays Beach Cave, taking advantage of the channel between Governor Head Lookout and Bowen Island. Because the beach runs east-west, the trees near the beach provide consistent shade throughout the day. A great place to visit in Jervis Bay.

Murrays Beach is another spot with a complex history, this one is the beautiful beach that was almost Australia’s first nuclear power station. No kidding. How anyone could have ever looked at this gorgeous place and thought “wow, this would be a perfect spot for a nuclear reactor” is beyond us… but history does seem to be in a repetitive mode, so we’re enjoying the world while it lasts. This one is also in the Booderee National Park, so a day pass will cost $20 per car, but there are so many amazing places around here that you can spend the day cruising from beach to beach. But we’re here to try the snorkeling at the western point of the Murrays horseshoe, and we’re very glad we did. Under the water there’s lots of fish of many species, from little baitfish to big blue gropers, plus various other marine critters from eels to urchins. This place would be a beautiful beach to just swim at anyway, but bringing the snorkelling gear will be well worth it. It’s about 300 meters from the carpark to the beach on a well marked trail with only a short incline at the beach end. Recommended.

Historic Sites

Cape St George Lighthouse, located within Booderee National Park, offers a glimpse into its 19th-century history through its picturesque ruins perched on dramatic cliffs. Recognized as a significant European historic site, the lighthouse boasts a dark and storied past. Visitors can follow a path to reach the clifftop for breathtaking views of the rugged coastline. The area also provides insight into early European settlement, albeit with a tinge of sadness due to historical events.
It is an excellent spot as I would say a must visit. Great combination of history and natural beauty. There are six kilometres of gravel road. Pretty easy to travel by 2 WD.

This lookout was one of the highlights of our holiday, and to think others live near this! One of the key features to this lookout was the drive, not too far away from Jervis Bay- and before hitting the parking lot, we were met with an influx of vibrant forestry overlooking the Horizons edge. Upon arrival, we were met with the ruins of the houses that many individuals inhabited. Stone walkways, alternative trails and a picnic bench near the rock pools. Deeper into the ruins, there is a taller lookout you can come across, where we were met with a sea eagle above. Great spot for family photos. Nearing the edge of the cliffside, there's a small fence barricading you from going further, except it is not wrapped fully around the edge, and making it easy to climb over. This is for parents with adventurous kids to stay cautious of, not to let their kid off-leash and explore, since there are several entry way points to come close to the edge and fall down without anyone noticing. Despite the exceptional view, it is a hazard- and when going around it myself and to the cliffs edge, there were broken glass particles on the ground. Not a good sign. I took a short panning video of how high we truly were, panning across my feet and the drop below. A good fact is that going off to the coastal edge of Australia, it is in fact just a huge drop, just like this!

Great spot to see whales passing by, bring your binoculars and drinking water. Information boards were very interesting. The ruins are really unique and you can get up close to the structure on one side. I would like to see a flag pole to represent the original height of the light house though. Be careful when walking and keep hold of small children as there are major cliff edges. There's a waterfall to the north of the lighthouse. Nice drive to get there, there roads were being upgraded and sealed in prep for the 2025 October holidays. Not much parking. Toilets on site.

Sandbar Restaurant & Bar is a popular dining spot in Huskisson, known for its inviting atmosphere and picturesque location along the shores of Jervis Bay. The restaurant offers indoor and outdoor seating, allowing guests to relax while enjoying the natural beauty of the area. With a contemporary menu that highlights fresh, local produce, Sandbar caters to various tastes, from seafood enthusiasts to those seeking modern Australian cuisine.
Our group of twelve had an incredible meal last night at Sandbar in Huskisson, we highly recommend The Chef’s Table experience. Even our vegetarian friend was well looked after! Starters were buttery grilled large sweet scallops with seaweed dukkah from a local business PhycoHealth the improvised tuna ceviche - usually kingfish, was very fresh with plenty of serves for our large group. The oysters with finger lime pearls were ocean fresh and also a good size - for Sydney rocks The ricotta & honey-stuffed zucchini flowers deep fried in a tempura style batter was a great hit! For mains, the grilled tuna in tomato and ouzo broth with skordalia was perfectly balanced suttle and lite, large pork cutlets and duck portions were juicy and full of flavour. The duck fat potato's and charred medley of greens were perfect sides with what we had. Sandbars service was warm and friendly staff often checking if we needed drink refills and clearing the table for the next course. We certainly left with satisfied full bellies. Overall we had a fantastic memorable dining experience - especially great to find a restaurant of this calibre open on a Monday.

We almost didn't stop in the restaurant because of some bad reviews. But as soon as we've passed by we had a good feeling about it , and we were right : food was excellent . Amazing services, we spend a lovely evening at this restaurant. We took 3 entree and 1 main to share, the zucchini flower, crispy pork , ceviche (a bit tiny portion for the price but so good.. ) and the fish of the market. All 4 of them were amazing ! Wood def recommand!

We had such a beautiful time here. The food was top notch & the atmosphere was great. The staff were beautiful - friendly & helpful. We ordered the Chef’s table & it was more than enough for the 2 of us & our little one enjoyed the kids’ pizza. They even boxed up our leftovers (which we left sitting on the table 🤦🏻‍♀️ & then kicked ourselves for). We won’t hesitate to recommend to everyone who will listen to us rave about this place & we will definitely visit again.

Was a bit concerned about the venue when I saw cyclone fencing around the venue, obviously due to some renovations or work being undertaken but no concern needed.

Right in the centre of Huskisson, this café is a great option for brunch. The food was really good, done to a high standard and with a varied menu. Though the hash brown (which was a pretty expensive add-on) was hard as a rock and pretty tasteless. The rest was great though, and well priced. Coffees tasted okay but the latte art was non-existent (see photos), a shame as this would be a great spot for coffee if they bailed the flavour and added some artwork. Staff were friendly, there was seating inside and out, and highchairs were available. Overall a good option, which with a couple of tweaks could be exceptional!

Always stoked with the sweet potato fries at Salty Joe’s 💜 they’re my absolute favourite. Love that they’re gluten and dairy free 🥳🥳 Abby was so warm and welcoming and provided wonderfully patient and friendly customer service, particularly as I changed a few things in my drink order. My choc peanut butter smoothie (ingredients amended to ensure it was dairy free) was delicious. Reasonable wait time, good communication, and just all round great service.

Please stay away if you don't want to drive home to have spoiled experience! This restaurant is damaging perception of Thai food or other Thai restaurants. Unfortunately I have chosen this place due to positive ratings. Firstly place is advertising on Google dine in when it is take away only. Secondly it is not that cheap paying $20 for Thai beef salad and $3.5 for a rice to have it as take away. Lastly food even it will cost half of what I have payed for is terrible: 1. Thai beef salad - soggy vegetables, cheap beef meat softened by baking soda so you feel like chewing prawns and all of that is drowning in massive amount of dressing like I have ordered soup. If you ever tried this dish or googled it, definately it looks and tastes completely different to what I have got. 2. Crispy pork belly - there is more fat than meat, vegies are undercooked and sauce is tasteless, watery with a lot of oil but plenty of chilly. 3. Rice is dry and taste it was cooked while ago.

Ordered a Chicken pad Thai got home and had Singapore Noodles meal was replaced and got back home only to recieve who knows what but wasn't pad Thai!!! Definitely won't be going back. 16/09/2023 Husband and I went for date night against my experience on a previous occasion I agreed to go back since we couldn’t go to the new Italian place. We ordered prawn and bacon rolls was like eating cardboard and the served it up with tomato sauce instead of sweet and sour. I told the waitress who told us it was sweet and sour. If most definitely not! We ordered combination chowmein 1 prawn in the dish wasn’t asked if we wanted crispy or soft noodle. Although it wasn’t a complete disappointment however we most certainly won’t be going back.

Impeccable Service, Delicious Food & Fast Delivery! I started writing this review before our food even arrived at the door—that’s how impressive the service was! Heidi, who took our order over the phone, was absolutely impeccable. She was kind, attentive, and an incredible salesperson, effortlessly convincing us to order more than we originally intended (no regrets there!). Her warmth and professionalism made the entire ordering experience feel special. And then the food arrived… in just 30 minutes, even though we were told 45! That kind of efficiency is rare and so appreciated. The food was absolutely delicious. It had that comforting, homemade quality that you hope for when finding a great local Chinese spot. It reminded me of the kind of meal you stumble upon while on holiday—simple, authentic, and packed with flavour. Every dish was fresh, well-prepared, and exactly what we were craving. Highly recommend Vincentia Chinese Restaurant for their incredible service, speedy delivery, and wonderful food. We’ll definitely be ordering again—both while we’re here and on our next holiday!
