Zenith Cafe, Restaurant and Bar

Lovely cafe with yummy & Instagramable food options and wonderful service from the team.
We came on a busy Sunday morning (after the PH) and the team did a fabulous job. The wagyu burger was very satisfying and tasted wonderful from the cheese, fresh salad, beef patty, buns & yummy sauce. Our little girls shared the waffles with ice cream and hubby had the bacon & egg roll. Lovely chilled atmosphere amidst a very busy weekend with a full house. Keep up the great works guys and thanks for looking after our family.

Quite a busy Friday night, but we was super lucky to sit outside on a lovely evening without a booking.
Food and service superb. I had calamari and my wife had chowder.
Nice artwork from a local artist!

We were at Shoal Bay in port Stephen and every time we walked past this cafe/ restaurant it was always full now we know why it was so nice that we were there three times on our holiday to try their food and the food was excellent and the service was fantastic. We were there on three different occasions for breakfast , lunch and another time for the dinner menu and the flavours of all our dishes we had was excellent. All the staff were friendly and attentive for whatever we needed .

Our favourite cafe in the Bay..always greeted with a smile and friendly servers. The food is always delicious and plated nicely. Coffee tastes delicious! I recommend the frappes and eggs Benny!

We tried this place for breakfast on the first morning of or holidays. The staff were very welcoming and attentive. We found a table inside with plenty of space amongst the talented artwork adorning the walls and adding to the relaxed atmosphere of this bright and vibrant cafe.
The selection of food was extensive and catered for the fussy eaters within our family. This was one of the first times everyone ate everything from their plates.
The payment was upfront and at the table at time of ordering and all meals and drinks were made well within expected timeframes even though the cafe was busy.
We returned every day for take away coffees, to which I could not fault.
We returned this morning and treated ourselves to another exception breakfast.

Highly recommend.

Another pet friendly cafe that deserves a 5 star!
Great location- beachfront view, lovely staff and delicious food👍
We got scramble eggs and avo toast with extra hash brown and salmon on the side and it was an absolute treat!

Had the best breakfast ever! Here on holiday for a couple of days so wanted to make sure it wasn’t wasted. If you’re in the area make sure you come in and check out the breakfast menu. Great service from Ella, but all the staff are helpful and attentive. First time we have had a hard iced latte and would definitely recommend if you’re wanting to indulge. Life is short - enjoy breakfast!

Great location, great staff and oh my goodness the waffles!!! Definitely recommend dropping in when you're in Shoal Bay. Loved it.

Service is excellent. It was a very busy night. A young attentive staff named Elizabeth never missed when we waved for service attention. The Strawberry Daiquiri is awesome. My husband was very happy with his Singapore Seafood Noodles meal. I'm a bit more fussy. The Sesame Crusted Atlantic Salmon Fillet was bland, but the citrus salad and marmalade that it was served with complemented the salmon. Overall, food was delicious.

Great coffee
Friendly staff
I come here for the best smashed avo around the bay.
Terry the cavoodle comes for the doglatto 🍦☕

We needed a venue for our pre wedding drinks and were struggling to find one. As we sat and ate a beautiful breakfast - tasty, great options, decent portions, beautiful view of Shoal Bay we thought why not here?!
By the end of that day we had confirmed the space. Susannah & Damien created a snack menu especially for our drinks and the whole process was just so easy. Everyone had such a good time and loved the atmosphere and food so much that they went back for breakfast and dinner during their stay.
Highly recommend for breakfast, the best in Shoal Bay. But also recommend for events!

Coffee was well presented, good temperature, and tasty. ☕ Service was exceptional and all customers were made to feel welcome.

Dinner for a large group for work. Service was friendly, quick and efficient, nothing was too much trouble. Food was amazing and well priced. Excellent cocktails. It was a hot night, but we were comfortable. Highly recommend.

Excellent customer service, food, cocktails, atmosphere and overall experience. Thanks Zenith for supporting a great time

Really excellent food, friendly staff, great place to eat.
Our first day in shoal bay we came here for a late lunch, I ordered the Caesar salad with prawns. The salad was delicious, perfect balance of bacon, lettuce, croutons and dressing, and the prawns were amazing. It’s right across from the beach so great to enjoy an afternoon aperol spritz while looking at the ocean.
We liked it so much we came back for breakfast 2 days later.
I ordered the zucchini and corn fritters with a side of hash browns. I usually find fritters a gamble because sometimes they’re sad and store bought, but these were incredible! Crispy and gooey and sweet and savoury, I loved that they were on the tortillas so I had some fun breakfast tacos.
Great place to eat, will be coming back next time we’re in the area!

This place is perfect and hands down has the best coffee I’ve ever had. The service is amazing always greeted with a smile. The staff feel like family. Makes my trip to shoal all the more worth it ♥

The best macchiato I've had in Australia. The process of a quality bean clean machine and a skilled barista 👌We ordered breakfast which was again of great quality value for money. The staff were very friendly and professional. Definitely will return whilst I'm in the area for a week. I highly recommend this place

Once again Zenith NEVER disappoints. Family birthday lunch with our dog. Booked table and everything was fantastic. Grill seafood plate, prawn salad, chicken tacos and salt & pepper squid. Food was ridiculously good and the dog enjoyed the Dogalatto ice-cream. Thanks for the wonderful service and amazing food. 🥂

This cafe has no right to serve food as good as it is. The staff seem to be personally selected for their wonderful, warm personalities. Nothing is ever too much trouble for them and they largely help to create a warm, informal atmosphere. Prices are very reasonable throughout the range and this seems to be policy of the establishment. I recommend it most highly !

I was a bit worried about the quality of food with the big numbers we have, but I was so surprised and happy, I tried every dish that came to the table and I was impressed with each and everyone. Service was fantastic, staff and super nice and the owners are very humble and hard workers. From a business owner and a chefs point of view I give those guys hands down, from A to Z.
