Plonk Beach Cafe

Seafood cant get any better than this
Top it off with perfect surrounding !!

We had great lunch, food and service were top rate.
I recommend Plonk to everyone!

Driven past this restaurant hundreds of times - but First Table offer encouraged us to book dinner! Thoroughly enjoyed the location and the food - we have already told friends to join us there for brunch!

The waiter and waitress were to welcoming and nice! Check in after every meal to see whether we were happy with our meal.
The seafood platter is to die for!

Plonk Beach Cafe is located on the water's edge close to the Spit bridge. It was a fabulous spot to have lunch - sun shining, sipping cocktail in the cool summer breeze amidst the yachts and the sparkling water lapping on the beach. We were warmly greeted on arrival and ushered to our reserved table. The staff was attentive. We ordered the decadent seafood platter (no nothing was deep fried), just awesome and fresh from the sea. Had such a memorable time! Thank you Plonk!

Lunch for 3 people was very average. Luckily the birthday boy chose the right dish- lamb cutlets, entree. Absolutely delicious.

The sous vide chicken main was over cooked and dry, and the pan fried gnocchi were uneatable. The salt and pepper calamari were just ok as we’ve had far better ( and also far worse) before.
The entree of zucchini flowers was a huge disappointment. Where did it say in the menu they were deep fried in a mass amount of batter? And the filling was strange, not creamy like I expected but lumpy and too many pine nuts. A very light batter or none at all makes this dish and they totally ruined it.
I have been to Plonk a few times and each time it’s disappointing but I wanted to see if it had changed since the last time. Won’t go back even though the waitress was lovely and the service great.

We thoroughly enjoyed our dinner at Plonk Cafe. Three of us had the Seafood platter. Plenty of variety on the plate. The Sydney Rock Oysters were superb. My only gripe is to present the oysters separately so that the salt, which the oysters are presented on, does not blend into the salad or other seafood.

Gorgeous location and ambience. Barramundi was well cooked, crispy skin and vegetables also - altogether delicious! Fish & chips we're good. Desserts were not amazing unfortunately although they looked picture perfect. Will go back for sure

Amazing location with excellent food - the best prawns I think I’ve ever had - and a fantastic wine selection, I love Scarborough wines and the Chardonnay was outstanding.

Excellent location
Fresh seafood and heaps of it
Finished off with delicious desserts

Stunning outlook and friendly despite somewhat confused service. Would come back again

What a wonderful restaurant! Great location at the harbor. The service was really friendly and very helpful. Food was excellent! Finally a restaurant that serves a seafood platter for one person. Also great restaurant for chillds. Child menu and a beach where they can play. We will definitely come back!

The staff were welcoming and the table was comfortable. Unfortunately, not long after we sat dawn the business next door which was a chandler ( I think) started their pressure hoses to clean boats. The noise continued for most of the next hour with occasional sprinkles of water, before 1 pm when lunch hour must have operated and the noses abated for a while. The menu was limited, entrees mostly fried but enjoyable. Main course was also fried, the fish and chips came without any salad so looked unappetising and my pasta, while enjoyable initially, was more suited to an entree option as too much became bland and unexciting- it could have had some garnish to make it more interesting. My children had recommended this venue, but our experience was not such that we would visit again . Perhaps on weekends the experience is better?

A great spot that gets everything right. Spectacular views, surrounded by boats and a mini beach, with excellent food and service. I had a fabulous seafood pasta with prawns and bugs and my partner’s steak was equally perfect perfect.

Ticked all the boxes for us. Dog friendly too!

We chose to come to Plonk Cafe for something different.The evening was warm with no wind and the setting was perfect for a nice relaxed evening. We ordered a couple of cold drinks and a Lamb and Fish of the day main. Both were tastefully presented and the meals a delight to eat. A couple of other things followed and staff were very friendly and attentive to our needs. Strongly recommended. Thanks guys. Be back again soon.

We had an excellent time at Plonk. The food, service, and atmosphere were fantastic. Highly recommend this restaurant- we will definitely be back!

The highlight was definitely the bucket of prawns to start, they were amazing! However, the seafood pasta was disappointing, had an unusually sweet taste.

Was great value through first table

Great experience. Delicious food.

We had such a wonderful lunch at Plonk. The waiter was very attentive and the food was delicious. An outstanding restaurant, thankyou.

Great spot on the water with little private beach.

Lovely lunch in a wonderful and relaxing location

A fabulous lunch and wonderful service. Thank you.

Such a beautiful location with great food and excellent staff. Perfect way to spend a few hours over lunch.

Fine dining experience with relaxed, waterside ambience. As enjoyable on a Friday night for dinner as it is on a Sunday morning for breakfast. I love the versatility, class and friendly, professional service this restaurant offers. My new favourite!!

Although the evenings are getting cooler to go out
The seafood platter is worth it !
Generous amount of delicious baked / steamed and sauted Fresh seafood was served
Very friendly wait staff were very happy to assist with the wine list
We had some margaritas to start off!!
Highly recommend this place

Food and service were excellent we really enjoyed our night. Seafood platter highly recommended.

Quickly served and food arrived in good time.
Everything was good

Great service, great food and amazing view. My wife and I had the Seafood Platter and it was delicious.

Fabulous location, food was just amazing and a superb last night dinner for my parents before they head back to the snowy UK today

Always fab!

Plonk is tucked away under the Spit Bridge. It is an idyllic spot on the inner harbour.
Summer evenings are gorgeous with the marina full of boats and the setting sun. Cooler nights bring an offer of blankets and clear walls to keep out the breeze.
The food is delicious and the service friendly.
It is family friendly with easy access to the beach area for the kids to play while you still enjoy dinner.
Parking is easy and plentiful and flat access.
This is our fave date night, late night anytime restaurant/cafe

Amazing food, spectacular service! Will come back again for sure!
Thank you Plonk for amazing food experience

Plonk Beach Cafe is a favourite , the food is delicious , the staff are friendly , helpful & efficient !!

Superb Australian seafood with fresh and modern accompaniments!

King tide very high water, nice atmosphere, great venue for a relax lunch

First time at Plonk Beach Cafe my friend recently moved into Mosman so it was fantastic to be able to walk to a quality restaurant with a beautiful outlook straight to the water!!!!
Food was top class and service was impeccable.
We’ll be back and nice to know they do breakfast.

Beautiful venue to watch the sky change colour with the setting sun. Food was lovely - the seafood fregola dish was to die for - the wine we chose was delicious and the service was friendly and warm. Look forward to going back again!

Fabulous fruits de mer

We really enjoyed the whole experience at The Plonk - the food was so amazing - best calamari ever tasted, really delicious barramundi fillet on mushroom truffle sauce and great seafood pasta with real seafood! Also lovely setting .... will definitely be back.

Such a lovely way to end the week. Booked a table for 2 couples and we escorted to our table at the front of the restaurant.... fantastic views included. Staff were fantastic in helping us select wines to match our meal. Seafood all round cooked to perfection! Wouldn't hesitate to eat here again.

Despite having had a full day with busy tables pre-Xmas, staff were lovely, and very helpful. Great location, freshest possible seafood and delicious desserts. Highly recommended.

Plonk has everything we like in a restaurant. The outlook is great the service is attentive but unobtrusive and the vibe is relaxed and casual never ordinary. The food is well presented and beautifully flavoursome. A great night out always.

A beautiful setting with beautiful food.

We had a lovely dinner at Plonk. Beautiful spot, nice staff and amazing food. My friends enjoyed the substantial seafood platter and I had the fish of the day. Dessert was also divine.

Great location
Had the zucchini flowers and the fish with vegetable risotto both delicious
Service was great

Food, service and location was great. Would recommend this place definitely.

Good enough food in a great spot amongst all the yachts.

We had the seafood platter and it was absolutely delicious! No deep fried items at all but just fresh delicately cooked seafood. Would definitely return!

What an incredible location and fantastic service. Our first table booking meant we could indulge in the seafood platter for 2! Such a generous portion, and great to have a healthy selection of grilled seafood as opposed to the usual fried options that creep in.
We'll definitely be back. Thanks!

We had a great evening at Plonk cafe - wonderful food and service! We were very happy to be able to bring our small dogs who enjoyed a night out as well. Although it was a cold night we were cosy with the plastic screens down and a heater. It was a nautical experience with water lapping at our feet!
