Doyles; Watson's Bay

I had a rare fancy lunch out at Doyles on the Beach restaurant at Watson's Bay with work colleagues.


We caught the ferry from Circular Quay and had a touristy trip across the harbour.




30 mins later, we were at Watson's Bay. The restaurant is right near the ferry dock.


We found a table outside under a heater where we could still see the stunning view.

Cute little butters.

Super-tasty bread. Warm and crunchy on the outside.

Fresh oysters.

Seafood chowder.

Salad with Parmesan and pear. SUPER delish.

Pasta marinara - the only vegetarian option on the menu.

Stuffed prawns, fish, salmon, chips. Be warned, the stuffed prawns contain bacon.

Seafood marinara.

Cute coffee.

The food was all delicious - very fresh, tasty, with quick service. The only downside of the lunch was the politeness of our waiter. He was very unhelpful, especially when our fish-etarian found bacon in her fish. A word of advice - the customer is always right!

Storm rolls in as we leave the restaurant.

Ferry ride home.

Sydney, you are so beautiful!

  2. Gorgeous photos - those fluffy clouds look so impressive with the light peeking through. Shame about the service - when will waiters learn that telling customers they're wrong never goes down well?

  3. @chocolatesuze - thanks! Seriously, my friend was quite distraught when she realised she had eaten bacon.

    @forager - thank you! I was sad their service wasn't better - it was a huge downer.
