Mumbo Jumbo's Beachhouse — Restaurant in Terrigal

If you're looking for a bar that combines world-class beverages, high-stakes plumbing, and a touch of the surreal, Mumbo Jumbos is the place to be.

We rolled in for a bucks weekend, and let’s just say the bulls were charging. The drinks were flowing, the DJ was firing with classic hits such as Insomnia by Faithless, and the urinal? Well, let’s just say it had evolved beyond its traditional role as a mere receptacle of liquid waste. it became the most enticing infinity pool in terrigal - something that this one dude thought was the funniest thing he had ever seen. a mesmerizing, ever-expanding body of water that defied both logic and basic hygiene standards.

The beverage assistant (which was hydrostatically pressure tested to 16 bar while discharging into the buck’s mouth earlier in the day) kept us well-lubricated throughout the night. At some point, someone made the bold decision to launch a round of Sambucca shots.

I’d just like to briefly mention that earlier that day, Virtual golf was attempted, but after multiple Rusty Trombones (a cocktail which tasted suspiciously like a smelly sewage pumping station on the Central Coast where, coincidentally, someone’s vehicle was broken into) being pressurised and violently released through the ball valve at the end of the beverage assistant, only Whitman was able to breach the 250 yard mark. Never mind that though, Mick came back through a cloud of smoke after we thought he’d bought it, and we all gasped “Jeeez, that’s SARGE!”

The night peaked during Eagle Rock, when the buck—resplendent in nothing but a G-string and a pirate hat—took center stage, both items remaining highly visible throughout the performance. Meanwhile, Rappo, who had been a key part of the festivities up to this point, suddenly entered standby mode—eyes open but spirit temporarily disconnected.

Would I come back? Absolutely. Would I use the urinal? Only if I was wearing flippers. Five stars. Happy buck Sambo the countdown is ON

PS I have to sincerely apologise on behalf of the boys to the Central Coast Council for the indecent quantity of corn that would have blocked up the sewerage network the next morning. No gravity wastewater system is designed to cope with...

Probably one of the worst places I’ve ever been to! I have only given it one star, so I can get through to write this review!!! It deserves negative starts tbh.

When we arrived at 6pm, two of our party went to the bar - we didn’t see them again until about 30 minutes later with their two drinks. It was enough to put us off even bothering to order another drink! When we went to order our food from the very hard-to-read and confusing menu, we were advised that they were out of the shrimp, then we had to go back and select another choice, only to be told they were out of that too (hamburger rolls!), then we asked about the pulled pork... “nup, sorry out of that too”.... really? out of the shrimp, hamburger rolls and pulled pork 1hr into dinner service? 🤷‍♀️ That is not all, as my husband saw a list of about 6 more items on the “out of stock” list that the guy taking the food orders had! When my husband then asked, “well what is there then?” The guy just said “tacos”, which is the very thing I didn’t want. It was by then too late, as my husband had already paid for the tacos, not knowing that I didn’t want them, otherwise, I would have just walked out and gone somewhere far better managed and catered for. To top it off, we spotted another smaller bar in the facility which had fewer people at it, so I decided to order a Pina Colada, only to be told that the ice crushing machine wasn’t working!!! NEVER AGAIN! This was the first and LAST time I will ever go to this establishment. Whomever manages this place needs his or her backside kicked. IT IS THE HOLIDAY SEASON, anticipate that you will have more than the usual number of customers and stock up accordingly! Too late, though, you have well and truly lost us!!! Extremely poor management and hopelessly under...

I don't like posting negative reviews, but my night here was so disappointing after reading great reviews. Firstly upon arrival we were sat at a table (we had booked), and the staff member just walked off without advising we would need to order drinks at the bar. Ordered a beer which was out of stock (that's ok), so opted for a tap beer called Beach House Lager. When I asked if it was a local brew the response was "Dunno". We tried to order our meals with the passing staff but we're told they no longer do table service and we would need to order at the entrance. We ordered a 'Little Ting' entree, two mains (Big Tings) and were presented with a buzzer yet staff were taking meals to tables. Strange. After a time, our buzzer went off so I collected one main and was advised the other two plates would be ready shortly. We waited... Enquired about the entree and missing main and advised they would be ready soon. We waited... Enquired again, and staff came back to advise our other plates have been cancelled! At this time the one main had gone cold so we decided to leave. When we asked for our money back (you have to pay in advance), the staff member asked us which meals we cancelled! -We said we hadn't canceled anything, but had asked several times about when they would arrive. The staff member then told us the meal that did arrive was cancelled (it clearly wasn't) and we told him it had arrived but had gone cold waiting for the other meals. We asked again for a refund and was told we would only be refunded for the meals that didn't arrive. I must say here that he did apologise. So two stars instead of one. I would love to have tried the food, as it looked nice as it was being taken to other tables. -that is still baffling as to why some tables get service and others are...
