Great food, great service. My go to place for food. Nothing is too much trouble, even when you turn up 10 minutes from closing because of delayed flights. Love the place ������
First time dining experience tonight.
Great menu, friendly and attentive service.
Food was delicious. Can highly recommend Oysters, Soft Shelol Crab, Fresh Fish & Pork Belly. Very generous portions.
Will definitely return�
Always love Bellakai - live the friendly staff - even though it's a busy restaurant / cafe - obviously because it's so good - the staff are always friendly even when they are slammed - they all work like machines to get everyone served - would like to see the dinner menu vary - needs revamping and maybe specials of the day to include fresh produce sourced locally - menu hasn't changed for long time
We have been there 2 days in a row with 2 of our kids and their kids. Wonderful food, exceptional service from lovely staff.
We enjoyed a great New Year's Eve dinner here. The food was excellent, and the service from the young girls was very good. The normal menu is not inexpensive so a couple of improvements are more than justified, such as table cloths for dinner, and stepping the service quality up a notch or two from the "casual" approach to sevice with a little more finesse.
Had breakfast here this morning, beautiful food, with friendly staff, also fantastic coffee, and great views of the beach, we had the sweet corn fritters, and omelette, also shoutout for a very tasty raspberry and coconut slice, highly recommended.
Great food, the seafood tasting plate was sensational and the Salmon with the red curry was phenomenal. Great service to top it off. Thank you very much
Great coffee,great food, friendly staff, highly recommended for a terrific brekky 👍👍👍.
I drink a lot of coffee at all different places as I travel around with work. And this place is by far the best I have ever had.
Locally renowned Bellakai is always a welcome and reliable spot to eat and drink. Love the staff and coffee is always good.
Awesome food and can’t beat the service highly recommend
My wife and I have walked past this place about 20 times in the way to breakfast every time we stay on the coast. Today we decided to give it a go and we’re definitely not disappointed. The staff were awesome and the food was fantastic. Make sure if the opportunity arises that you give it a go.
Been here twice, first time I could not fault a single thing! The mushroom breakfast was the best brekky I’ve EVER been out for!!! Second time a longer wait (in defence was school holidays and a weekend! - think I was spoilt the first time :p)
Brekky/coffee still great
Friendly staff members with smiles on faces!
Of three exceptional meals in 3 nights in Coolangatta, this was the best. Attentive staff and beautiful food my family finished our three day trip on a high. The whiting fillets were a standout, along with the prawn dumplings.
Been coming here since they opened and for many years it was superb. The menu hasn't changed, decor ageing and not much has progressed here. Food is average, no local food or special ingredients. Very large portions. The service is lovely (although our order was wrong), friendly cheery GC style, and of course the view is divine.
The most Amazing oysters and a great variety. Love the cocktails. The ambience was fantastic and would highly recommend anyone to go here. Tried there breakfast more than a few times and absolutely delicious. Put this one on your list of places to dine.
Great postion.Great service. Creative menu to choice from. I would visit again. Fresh produce . Seafood and yummy meat dishes. I recommend this place.
Had a great lunch here - nice position, very friendly staff and tasty food. We had a beautiful afternoon and we're very well looked after by the staff. Thank you!
Went here for Breakfast with a young family - the staff were very receptive and friendly - I was impressed at the offer of a plastic plate and cutlery for my toddler - took a lot of stress out of the morning not worrying about her smashing a China plate!
The meals were large portions and delivered in a timely manner. Tasted 👌🏻 good.
Will defiantly return!
Beautiful location. The staff are extremely friendly and efficient. Delicious food and great coffee. I'll definitely be back next time I'm in Coolangatta.
My favourite in Cooly. The food is exquisite and the service cannot be faulted.
Highly tecmmend the Angus or the Barramundi (Asian style version), topped with a Toblerone cocktail :)
And the lovely French waitress posseses patience of an angel.
Have been here many times, food is always delicious and they give you a lovely choice of different dishes. Service is great you cannot go wrong with this choice
Great food and service, beautiful breakfast, lunch and dinner. Loved lattes and French Toast for breakfast, tofu salad for lunch and the soft shell crab at dinner.
Great food and friendly service. We have eaten here a few times and have always been impressed with the food and service. The staff are so friendly and helpful, they are really child friendly with offers of colouring in books and extra little bits which made breakfast with two boys not as stressful as usual.
Yummy. Absolutely delicious meat dishes. Recommend Beef Cheeks. You can eat it with a spoon. Lamb is also delicious. Can't fault the service. They even gave me a blanket as I got a bit cold. Coffee is great too.
We had a brilliant lunch here for my mother I laws birthday. The whole group were impressed with the food and service. We had two bubs with us (1 yr olds) and they were welcomed with high chairs, plastic cutlery and cups set up for them at the table. It was a lovely lunch and we would come back again.
Really enjoyed this restaurant! The service and food was great! It was also a bonus that they catered for food intolerances! I would definitely come again and recommended to all!
Nice lil restaurant. Had friends from overseas staying close by so we thought we'd meet here for dinner/drinks. Dinner was delish. Huge sirloin steak with yummy accompaniments. My sis had the kangaroo which was tasty & tender. Dessert was even better. Service was fast & friendly except 1 of our waiters was a lil Sour faced. Nitpicking bt that was the only prob I had with the place. Otherwise, if in the area id def come back.
TOP BREAKKIE. If you are looking for good food and drinks then come here! Have been there a few times and never disappoints!! The coffee is beautiful, amaaaazing fruit refreshing drinks and the food is really good!!! One of the best places I have been for breakfast! Loved the scrambled eggs, bacon, bbc sauce, tomato salsa, spinach wrap! The pancakes are also delicious! The staff is really friendly and even when it's packed we have not waited for very long! Right in front of the beach !!!!!!!!!!!
Best in Coolangatta. I'm consistently underwhelmed by the poor restaurants a tourist place like Coolangatta has.
However, I went to Bellakai last weekend and the service and food were both amazing. I started with the lamb for the entree and chicken for the main. Both were just cooked to perfection and will definitely be back next time I'm in town.
I read some of the negative reviews on this site and think some people either have rocks in their heads or I experienced something very different. Either way, I had a great meal backed up by better service. Bellakai is a breath of fresh air as I'd given up ever getting a decent meal in Coolangatta.
A charming little gem in a strip of fast food and over rated restaurants. We were pleasantly surprised to stumble upon this treasure as we walked away from the main strip. Decor was fresh with a clean modern but cosy feel with wonderful beach views across the road. Food was Melbourne style with a small but good menu. We enjoyed the food and wine selections fir dinner and would return. Staff were bright, happy and accomodating.
I had a late lunch, fettuccine bolognaise. It was a general helping with 'al dente' noodles and lots of sauce. A perfect short black combined with excellent service rounded off a beautiful meal.
Wonderful food and attentive, friendly service. I had seafood fettuccine which was loaded with prawns, scallops, calamari and tuna coupled with al dente pasta. Make sure you try the coffee which is made with care using quality beans. Overall the best meal I've had on the coast and with a complimentary ocean view!
Beautiful tasty brunch. Sensational coffee (and we from Melbourne).Excellent service.Our family of 5 all enjoyed their meals. Large serves and quality food. Lovely fresh scones as well. Will be coming back for dinner.
Great atmosphere and the service was impeccable. Great vibe and the views of the beach were sensational. The menu was extensive and well portioned. We went for breakfast and was not disappointed. Breakfast brucetta was spot on.
Late breakfast. Just finished surfing starved time for breakfast. 11:45 am are we to late? Breakfast not a problem. Very friendly service. Generous servings, fresh ingredients that tasted great. Good coffee & great fruit drinks. What more could you ask for.
Best coffee and apple pie on the coast! Will definitely be back for dinner!! Service was outstanding.. Very friendly! Well done guys!!!!
Very good service. Attentive and Considered. Started with a dozen natural oysters we're well presented and obviously fresh. Mains were well presented and of a good size but found them under seasoned. Ordered the sirloin and the barramundi on an Asian noodle salad. Would go back hoping the food would be at the level of the service received
Yummy but increase the portion. Dined there on Friday night and sat outside.
Staff were attentive and always asking if things were OK. Food was lovely - however I must ask that the portion be increased slightly. For the money I I felt as though I was back in the Sydney craze of serving food in excessively large plates with a entree sized portions.
Overall the food was great and generally a positive experience.
The best eggs benedict I've ever had. I love this place! The staff are friendly and helpful, the juices are beautifully presented and tasty, and the eggs benedict are the absolute best I've ever had.
I've been with friends multiple times for breakfast, and everyone has raved about what they've had.
The interior has a lovely fit out, but I always sit on the outside bit. It is Coolangatta, afterall! And even in the rain, it's lovely.
Great menu. I have eaten the breakfast, lunch and dinner menu. I particularly liked the mushroom roulade I had for lunch. Great views, short distance away from all the bustle of Coolangatta.
The food was amazing and staff so helpful. The food coming out of the kitchen is beautiful.
Casual footpath cafe right on the front at Coolangatta beach. Friendly staff who care. Had the tostee and my wife has bacon and eggs with sourdough bread. The coffee was excellent. Could be a bit hot if your are having a late breakfast in summer but coming into the cooler months will be excellent.
Drove down from Mermaid after finding this place on Instagram and was 100% worth the drive, the most amazing staff, accommodating chefs and wonderful location. The food was superb and I literally have no complaints! 10/10 would recommend!!
One of the best breakfasts I've had in ages. I had the special which was french toast with fruit and whipped icecream. Beautiful light fluffy toast and a great portion size. Some places bulk up with too much food but this was perfect. Hubby had mushrooms on toast, also great portion size and full of flavour. Throw in great coffee and a spectacular view and you couldn't want for more.
Drove down from Southport to drop some dosh near the border and saw this lovely alfresco place across the road. Great decision! Sat outside under the umbrellas opposite the beach. The vibe was great hut brunch was fantastic. Build you'd own brekkie is a great idea but everything was brilliantly cooked. Can't wait to go back again.
We went there for breakfast, one of the best customer service and good food. The lady who served me was the most friendliest person I have ever met and also the food was so good especially the brekky bun. The ingredients were so fresh !I would definitely come back again. Thank you ladies for such an awesome customer service and delicious food !
Good location. Anna the manager is really helpful. the service is awesome. Will come back for sure.
Went here on Sunday of Anzac weekend. Really busy but we were accommodated. The Maitre De was all over it. She had her team working so well and she was all over it. We got our food in no time and the little things like water on the table. Coffee fantasic and huge mug. Highly recommend. Veronica 👍
