No Bones Byron Bay

Vegan restaurant

👍 I would have loved to see more vegetable items. A better balance of deep fried to healthy options. More healthy mains. I am mainly vegan but I guess I prefer more whole foods so even thought I ate a lot, didn't feel satisfied. Overall definitely something worth trying, seems to be booked out a lot...

Casa Luna

Restaurant

👍👍 We dined here our first night in Byron and what a welcome it was! The atmosphere was really vibing with great music. We started with two delicious and refreshing cocktails - highly recommend the Cactus Garden. The food was tasty, full of flavour and unique. The Beef Tatare and Octopus were a highl...

187 Cantina

Mexican restaurant

👍👍 Dylan and his team are amazing. On the Friday of the June long weekend 187 was extremely busy and Dylan and his team worked hard to get our group of 4 a table. The entire waitstaff and the owner himself checked in on us and we got the best table of the night. Service was fabulous and food and drinks...

Light Years - Byron Bay

Asian restaurant

👍👍 Am yet to be disappointed with the drinks or food at Light Years. At my most recent visit we started with some cocktails followed by prawn, scallop and crab dumplings that were wonderfully fresh and served with a lovely sauce. We then ordered the popcorn chicken and papaya salad which were both amaz...

Ma Ma Moi

Asian fusion restaurant

🫤 Pretty bad experience today unfortunately. We came today for a coffee and a little breakfast. We arrived and have been told that all the tables were booked - fair enough it is Xmas eve and didn’t reserved - so happy to stay at the counter outside. (During the hour that we stayed at the cafe, in ave...

Mr Tipsy's

Asian restaurant

👍 Went here for dinner and was so amazed. At first was super confused on how to find a table/booking although it seemed as all the staff were busy at the time which is totally fine. We then got seated at our table and ordered pretty quickly. The meals were a fantastic size and worth it. They also had...

Barrio

Restaurant

😐 This is just my opinion! Don't get my wrong!! The food and taste are really good but I was expecting more quantity for the price I paid. I did miss more on side dishes. What is it an octopus without boiled potatoes? why a basket of bread that could help to taste the delicious flavor of the chicken...

Empire Cafe Mullumbimby

Cafe

😠 Didn't even bother to order. Staff completely disinterested. Couldn't bother to say hello or help us find someplace to sit, so we went and spent our $200 at patch instead. Great decision on our part.

Hotel Metropole Lismore

Pub

👍👍 Thursday night this is the place to be. Full seating area for food, but managed to get a table. Dinner was incredible, cooked perfectly. Chips were golden and the beef brisket was to die for. Seven mile beers from Ballina which is a big plus. But yeah, can’t recommend the new kitchens food enough. W...

Henry Rous Tavern

Bar

👍👍 My family and I ate here today and recieved a good meal and a welcoming service. One major point which sways me towards having lunch here every time is the well cooked meals and how the drinks always seem to be full of flavour. As a transgender woman, I have noticed that the staff have always been...
