Review Gilgai Tavern - Kalbarri

Like every place in kalbarri at the moment the Gilgai is chronically understaffed, so make sure you book ahead. We had the surf and turf (steak and prawns), and the parmy. The parmy was tasty and generous. The surf and turf was a mixed bag. The prawns were ok, but the steak was tough. There aren't many options for a walk-in dinner on a Monday in kalbarri at the moment, so the Gilgai is not a bad option.

Food is always delicious here. Reasonably priced. The Gilgai is always on our list when we are in Kalbarri.

We were walk in and got a table within 30mins. We ordered a steak and were recommended the pork ribs by the bartender. We were not disappointed. Steak cooked perfectly medium and the mushrooms and port sauce was delicious. The pork rib sauce was lovely and sticky and full of flavour.

Good family feel. Very friendly staff. Great food. The sticky pork was very nice.

Hamburger for $13 wasn’t too bad I guess at least it was flavoursome. Chips were extra and the waiter was good and courteous. Over all deserves a cost if your in town.

Well it was cold we got to the tavern and had to find a spot it was busy. We sat outside but when a better seating spot was free the great staff helped us out. I had the spicy ribs and all I can say there was no time to take a pic until i was done

We always head here in our trip to Kalbarri. Food is always brilliant, waiter staff brilliant but the 2 oldies that run it are always rude. Last year I was yelled at by the lady as I sat down at an unreserved table without asking. This stone takes the cake. Whilst I was there, we were the only ones asked to show our vax very, easy! Lost my place in the long queue to get my phone, for him to not even look at it! With restrictions this strict you’d think that the chefs would be wearing masks! NO CHEFS WEARING MASKS!! If you are going to be tough in patrons, which I really do appreciate, I do, don’t not have food prep staff without masks.

My friends and I came here when staying in Kalbarri, it was busy so we had to book a table. Would come here again. The food was yummy, Good portion sizes and good prices. We had the pork ribs (tender and amazing), the chargrilled rump steak was very good too, it’s an extra $10 to make it surf n turf, generous amount of prawns and garlic sauce. You can also add garlic prawns to the chicken schnitzel. They have a few different options for customising a Parmy. The sticky date pudding was so light and fluffy. We were very happy with our meals 😌
