Eating Out in Bellingen

We are fortunate to enjoy excellent dining close at hand. Visit "No 2 Oak Street" or "McNally House" in Bellingen (minutes away) and "Misty's" in Dorrigo (30mins) for high quality, à la carte dining or venture out to the coast to Sawtell (25 minutes) to visit the award winning "The Blue Fig". See the list of brief reviews of nearby restaurants and eateries below.

BELLINGEN | SAWTELL | DORRIGO | URUNGA

BELLINGEN

No 2 Oak Street
This licensed or BYO restaurant is Bellingen's best à la carte dining. Sit inside in front of the fire during winter or outside on the verandah on balmy summer nights - either way you'll have a meal to remember.

Lodge 241 - Gallery Café
An old Masonic Lodge put to alternate use as a Sydney-styled café. The Lodge affords great views west up the Bellinger Valley and often exhibits quality local paintings and sculpture. The local Chess Club welcomes all comers on lazy Sunday afternoons, starting 1pm.

The Swiss Patisserie
If you are unconcerned by calories, start your day at "the Swiss Patiss" with a pastry and coffee in Bellingen's café precinct. Sit outside on wrought iron furniture or spread the paper on wooden benches.

The Golly Gosh
Beside the Swiss Patrisserie and offering breakfast and lunch with coffee and cones, The Golly Gosh is at the centre the cafe strip. Outdoor seating and wide tables are available for larger groups.

Boiling Billy Coffee House
Just up from "the Swiss Patiss" the Boiling Billy is a café with a real country feel offering old fashioned service with a changing menu of light meals.

The Lonely Palate Winery
Boutique winery that produces award winning wines from local and regional fruits, other than grapes. Visitors are welcome to taste these hand crafted products with hosts, David & Susie, happy to expound the wines many virtues. A unique Bellingen experience!!

The Old Butter Factory
If you're really hungry, this is the place for you. Every meal is a small mountain. Service is fast and efficient. The view is west over the golf course toward the mountains. The Butter Factory complex is home to numerous craft shops which you may wish to browse. <TOP>

SAWTELL (25mins drive north)

The Blue Fig
Small and smart, The Blue Fig restaurant is nestled in the main street of Sawtell directly opposite beautiful Morton Bay Fig trees.

The restaurant seats only a handful of people, serves modern cuisine and does a sideline in kitchen and cookware.  With back to back hospitality and food awards The Blue Fig is a dining experience not to be missed. Book well ahead to be sure of a table.

Olive Oyl's
One door down from The Blue Fig, Olive Oly's offers excellent gourmet pizza and pasta dishes. BYO wine, choose a spot indoors, or roadside on those balmy summer nights. Perfect compliment to a movie at Sawtell's Cinema Internationale. <TOP>

DORRIGO (30mins drive west)

Misty's
Don't miss an evening at "Misty's" on the Dorrigo plateau. "Misty" because the cool air of the plateau fogs the roads and fields during winter. Located in an old tailor's shop, Misty's serves game meat, trout from Ebor and beautiful Dorrigo potatoes. Not a vegetarian's restaurant.

Fresh
A new café with delicious home cooked cakes, innovative lunches, a deli bar and good coffee. <TOP>

URUNGA (12mins drive south east)

Anchors Wharf Café
Set on the side of the Kalang River in Urunga ("Where the river meets the sea"), Anchors Wharf Café is an award winning eatery offering family restaurant dining.
