The Loft Restaurant

Great food and wonderful service. We had a broad range of dishes and they were all delicious. Will defiantly be back to try a few more. Also the cocktail was delicious and they have a few more pages for us to work our way through. Defiantly recommended and Will be back.

Great food and service!
Hidden amongst Lismore’s laneways it remembers an experience of Melbourne’s laneway culture. Located at a former industrial building into two charming levels.
The Loft serves a contemporary Australian menu, with strong European influences.

Absolutely amazing! We attended the April French inspired degustation evening tonight.

While we were a little uncertain of some of the menu options we made sure we used the opportunity to try different things and take ourselves out of our comfort zone.

Funnily enough, the things we hadn't tried before like wagu beef tartar and venison were 2 of our favourite dishes.

The service from the team and owner Brad was amazing and their wine pairing was definitely worth exploring.

If you're looking for something special and different from pub grub, do yourself a favour and go. You won't be disappointed.

Fine dining in Lismore.
Food was lovely, warm, friendly environment, service was thoughtful and in good time. One of our party bought one of the drinks which tasted like vinegar so she couldn't drink it. She was offered an exchange when the waitress heard us encouraging her to get another drink.

The food was on point, well presented with amazing service from the wait staff. The cocktail selection is great too. We will definitely be returning. They help us celebrate our engagement with an all round experience, catering for my celiac partner as well.

Food was absolutely beautiful, presented to impress with attention to detail. Staff were friendly, efficient and knowledgeable. Lovely ambience upstairs, comfortable and intimate. The range of drink range is impressive and I enjoyed a local gin I have not tried before. Would give 6 stars if I could, thank you The Loft Restaurant for another lovely evening.

A special place to celebrate a birthday. First class food and service. This is a high end restaurant that never fails to deliver. A small well curated menu with generous servings, top quality ingredients, a nice mix of meat, seafood and vegetarian options and attentive service. If you are looking to treat yourself or someone else look no further. The seafood ravioli starter is excellent as was the pork belly. Slow roasted meats and seafood mains were “ the bomb” followed by tasty and generous desserts and a well curated wine and spirits list tops it all off. Highly recommended

Well I was a 'walk-in'..& it's been FABULOUS! ...the service - excellent! Above & beyond! Food - deeelicious!! Good size portions...feeling satiated. .. Atmosphere - intimate. .. I'll be back for sure...a great place to indulge & treat yourself!

This is one of the few places that we love to splurged our hard earned money!😅 An intimate place perfect for dinner dates and for small gatherings. The food is to die for and not to mention the variety of cocktails. The service is amazing! Highly recommended! We will always go back to spend special occasions.

Absolutely loves our first visit to “The Loft”. Visited with my partner for a quiet dinner and were very impressed with the staff and service. They were attentive and there when needed, without hovering! The food was delicious, we were so impressed. We had 3 courses. While the wine list was limited it was fine! Next time plan to try something from their cocktail list. Have already recommended The Loft to friends and family!

Fine dining, the head chef there is next level, what they are serving is beautiful and delicious and unique The bar is tended by a serious award winning bartender and will not disappoint.
I have been on many occasions and hope to go more.
Also the cost was very reasonable in my opinion. Definitely recommend for that special occasion .

Thank you for the experience, the food was wonderful and we enjoyed the surroundings. Our waitress did an excellent job, and we will certainly recommend The Loft to our friends.
A minor worry - I understand your need to fill empty tables if someone cancels, but it was quite annoying to get so many emails that appeared to be demanding that we notify late arrival or cancellation. I do suggest you rewrite the request in a less military style.

I was so impressed with The Loft, coming over from Byron to have dinner with family I was absolutely delighted with the food. All 7 of us loved every mouthful of our entree, mains and deserts. The service was perfect, the drinks were yummy. I’m so happy to have eaten there and will return again soon, it was so worth the drive from Byron. and recommend this beautiful restaurant. Xxx

It's been quite some time since we've had a three course meal to this standard. Every course was an absolute delight!! The wine and cocktails also hit the mark. Great ambience and warm service added to the overall positive experience.
This evening was memorable and we look forward to our next visit with great enthusiasm.
Thank you team.

As always the service, atmosphere, aesthetics, drinks and food were magnificent. Took two of my best friends along to celebrate one of their birthdays with cocktails in the bar downstairs before heading up to the Loft of The Loft 😉 to enjoy our incredible 3 course meal. Every course and drink was a delight and my friends could not be happier that we got to enjoy such a wonderful meal together and catch up.

Wow what amazing food, atmosphere and service. Thank you Howard for looking after us you were fantastic. My husband and I super enjoyed our night at the Loft. I had the asparagus and leek salad which was a taste sensation, the barra for main but the pineapple desert was something I have never tasted before - mouthwatering is an understatement. Thank you.

Lovely venue in Lismore, all the staff are super friendly, providing enough assistance without hovering nor leaving you feeling ignored. Cocktail with rosemary smoke (forget the name) was sophisticated and sublime, definitely worth another visit just for that. Food was also delicious and enjoyable, excellent value for money too.
It made for a special night on the last day of my trip to Lismore. Thank you Loft!

This was our first visit to The Loft and we weren't disappointed. We opted for wine parings with our meal and we were completely delighted with how well the combined experience worked. The quality of the meal was outstanding. The service was attentive without hovering. I would thoroughly recommend The Loft and we are already planning our next visit.

Once again AMAZING, food, service, atmosphere!!!! By far the best place to dine in Lismore. Cocktails to die for!!! Thank you for making our night beautiful. (side note..... we felt a little rushed with the meals coming out so quickly although understandably with another sitting at 8pm) Not sure if you could do it any other way. We were in at 6pm and out by 7.10pm) WE WILL BE BACK!!

Had a wonderful dinner on Friday night. The service was exceptional and the food was delicious. We had the 3 course dinner with wine and each course was excellent, do yourself a favour and try the chocolate fondant cake for dessert, it was so moreish
