3 Best Restaurants in Byron Bay, North Coast

This Byron Bay legend is bit of an all-rounder with a kiosk serving takeaway coffee and small breakfast eats like its homemade banana bread, and a fine-dining open-air dining room with sea views. On offer are some of the world's best wines with dishes like barbecue squid, kingfish sashimi, and saffron-infused mussels. For the meats eaters, try the dry-aged Scotch fillet served with wild mushrooms, wasabi leaf, and pickled turnip.

This friendly vibrant café is found just outside of Byron and is a firm favorite with locals. It's surrounded by a beautiful garden and native trees with plenty of birds. The focus here is on serving ethical coffee and only local produce. The menu is 100% vegetarian and vegan but even if you're a meat eater you won't feel like you're missing out. Each dish is created with care and packed with flavor. Open every day from 7:30 am.

Found at The Farm, a working property near the main entry point into Byron Bay, Three Blue Ducks is the sister restaurant to the hugely successful Sydney eatery of the same name. This is the perfect spot for breakfast or lunch, with the coffee counter always heaving. The farm-to-table movement is in full flow within this barn-style restaurant, with everything on the menu grown or butchered on-site. And nothing goes to waste here, with the chefs creating innovative dishes that ensure all parts of plant and animal are used. The chicken liver parfait is a must try and their take on a simple beef burger is really a culinary delight.
