Jetty Beach House Coffs Harbour — Restaurant in New South Wales

I like to be positive in my reviews, and the Jetty Beach House makes me wishing I had given 4 stars to everyone else, so I can express just how good it is. What an incredible place, go for the view, enjoy the ambiance, it's cool, it's classy and it's welcoming. When we walked in my first impression was "golf club", I felt a little out of place, but we were greeted by a warm and friendly face who welcomed my unconventional face with patience and helpfulness. A few moments later we were seated in a cosy little booth easily capable of seating 6 and I met a charming kindred spirit while ordering cocktails and he made me feel welcomed and at ease. I had to try the Sea Legs cocktail; a jalapeno infused tequila with lime and agave in a salt rim glass with a streak of chilli flakes on the outside of the glass and I can easily say it was the best cocktail I have ever had, the spice added a fire to the already spicy tequila pallette, but the lime and salt rim made it exquisite. I drove 4 hours to experience it and cannot recommend this place enough. The customer service was second to none and set the pace for one of the most amazing nights I've had in a long time. Friendly smiles from the staff made it so much better, and they couldn't have done more to make us feel welcome and special. I settled for a simple meal of the pale ale battered fish, and I did not know that meals like this existed, they've taken the simple fish and chips and spun it into the 21st century, I won't wax lyrical about it but believe me I was stunned by this rendition of homely, wholesome food that delighted and satisfied. It was far from what I expected and I was so happily surprised. Do yourself a favour, take a loved one, take your family, hell, take anybody or go it alone just get there and be prepared to live the embodiment of "treat yourself". Thank you guys, you've left an indelible mark on me that will make it damn near...

It was a cold damp night that we decided to head off to the Jetty Beach House Bistro, down a long dark road, hardly a sign or a soul in site, the streets were devoid of any signs of life, what adventures would await us as we drew ever so slowly to our destination. Hampered by roadworks a lack of signage, our nerves grew ever more frazzled.... But there it was a poorly placed sign barely visable in the drizzle and showery rain. Is this the right way my wife cautiously asked. Your going the wrong way says the GPS. Press on we must, and there is was.....a brightly tavern like a beacon in the night, drawing us ever closer. With trepidation we entered, the chef's were cleaning up, the coffee machine covered, a lone soul working hard... Are you still open we ask despite the big bold sign stating the same? Wow... What can I say? It was an experience we won't forget but not one I am sure we are keen to remember either. The food selection limited the special list even shorter. But order we did and prompt was the service. Friendly staff doing the best they can in a large empty dining hall, despite it being on 6.10pm on a Sunday evening. We are extremely quiet tonight our waitress informs us.. Dessert is part of our normal food share selection but tonight there was nothing to choose from, the cabinet was bare, but sparkling clean.

Ohh well, nevermind... the location would be spectacular in the daylight, the service prompt, the staff pleasant and eager to assist, the food nicely presented. Our stomachs filled, we will live to enjoy another day🌞

Onward bound in search of our next great Coffs Harbour food...

We came to Jetty Beach House for a family function. On arrival we were greeted by an attentive, kind, and smiling Olivia. The family function was a wake and Olivia interacted with us all with sympathy and empathy while still being incredibly efficient at her job. Jess was also tending to our function and she was just amazing. All of her interactions with our family felt very personal and caring. She always ensured everyone was enjoying themselves with their drink of choice in hand and all of the glasses, plates and rubbish were cleared away unobtrusively. We enjoyed our time here so much that we decided to stay for dinner after our function was long over. The function food was fabulous and the dinner was just as good. The pizzas were especially delicious. We didn’t get the name of the lovely lady who took our order at the counter but her service was also personalised, she shared her enjoyment of the special Pizza of the day that she had for lunch the day before (which we ordered). Jess was also with us during dinner and ensured everyone was enjoying their promptly served dinners as we all spread ourselves across the dining room for our meals. We also had the Manager come to one of our tables to locate the owner of a lost purse. She was very lovely and offered to keep the purse safe if the owner wasn’t located.

Every staff interaction was fabulous and the food and atmosphere were amazing. Jetty Beach House, your staff are such an asset. We...
