Cardwell Beachcomber Restaurant

This is Cardwell’s best kept secret on the waterfront with uninterrupted views of the ocean! Such a beautiful location and friendly staff to enjoy lunch and dinner. The decor is modern and it was very relaxing to enjoy a refreshment. Pizza menu and cocktail menu looks epic! Will call in again on my way through town.

5 star all around for me. Pork Belly and Choc Lava Cake was heavenly, lovely cocktail list and a beautiful view across the ocean.

We were so impressed with the Cardwell Beachcomber restaurant. We arrived for happy hour at 4:30 and stayed for hours. The pizza was fantastic and the service from the staff was really great, especially from Tara. She gave us advice about the areas and made us feel really welcome. I definitely recommend this restaurant and if we’re in Cardwell again, we’ll be back for sure!

Amazing food - we had pizza’s, and they were fantastic!

We made a deliberate stop, driving from Victoria to Cairns, we were here last year and loved the restaurant so much we wanted to come back again!
Food was amazing!
We had the Grilled Barramundi with Garlic Prawns, so delicious!
Service over and above!
Special mention our waitress Chonny she was so friendly and informative on the menu!
Highly recommend this restaurant - definitely worth stopping for at Cardwell!

What a hidden gem! Husband & wife team, Chef Ben in the kitchen & the delightful Shannon heading up FOH & making a mean cocktail are going to be a couple to watch. Training with some of the best, from Melbourne, country Victoria & Australia wide, they took over the lease of this motel/caravan park restaurant just as the Covid pandemic hit. This time has been used wisely, sourcing produce & forming relationships with suppliers to guarantee freshness & first rate ingredients.
Sampling pretty much everything, there were a couple of dishes to die for, the scallops- perfection & the steak. Do yourself a favour & visit this quaint FNQ town, you’ll be surprised. Watch this Team!

Best meal I've had in a while... All well done.
But very much on the more expensive side for the area.
Will be there again when I save up the $

My family & I celebrated my father's 90th birthday at the Cardwell Beachcomber Restaurant, and we couldn't fault it. The food was lovely but the staff were amazing. The two ladies behind the counter were lovely, friendly & efficient.

Give your self a night off cooking and enjoy a yummy meal here. I'm coeliac (gluten free) and they even had a gf menu. Great atmosphere, r ight opposite the beach, their wait staff were excellent. We ended up eating 2 meals there while staying at the caravan park. I had beef cheeks and pork belly 😋

Stayed in our van, the best set up, very clean,well designed out park and facilities, across from beach, has everything you'd need including ATM. Really enjoyed our stay, will definitely return. Thanks guys

Yum, well done food. Again, a million dollar view! Good combo!

Great place. Can't wait to go back again. The pizza's are extra yummy. Meals fantastic. Staff very friendly.

Bravo chef. Professional staff and food prepared with love. Before reviewing I tried breakfast, pizza and dinner. Pizza dough is very light and tasty, you can tell is high quality pizza. Gnocchi were great and lamb even better. Dessert lovely as well. Beautiful view also which is a plus. Highly recommended

Ate at the restaurant a few times and the food is unbelievable. All the staff are extremely friendly and the prices are great too. Would definitely recommend to anyone in the area. We will be back.

Pleasant spot to stay, clean rooms, great view of the beach and ocean. Cafes and shops within walking distance.

We did not expect to find this little gem, but it was absolutely amazing! We were so so impressed with the food - the flavours, portion size and presentation was excellent. Service was prompt and friendly without being overbearing. Options were vast and there was a great array of drinks. The location is wonderful. Highly recommend going here for a meal!
