The best restaurants Magnetic Island

Welcome aboard! Take a trip back to the world of pirates when you step through the doors of this iconic island café. Between Easter and Christmas, this family-run address offers you the chance to savor a range of wholesome, gourmet dishes. Opt for a champion breakfast, great burgers, fish & chips or a vegetarian lunch. The coffees are prepared with care and are equally delicious. The atmosphere is relaxed and family-friendly, and we love to linger on the terrace tables where the tropical vegetation encroaches on our place settings!

End your day of exploration in this bar on the beach. The atmosphere is good and the dishes, served with care and simplicity, are rather classic but correct: pizzas, burgers, steaks, fish, seafood... Enjoy a cold beer or a cocktail from the terrace or the large indoor room with a view on the beach of this great restaurant-bar. Let's be honest: we choose this address more for its sunsets and its good atmosphere than for its cuisine. An ideal address for an outing with friends.

Are you looking for an address that will satisfy all your little tribe? This restaurant facing the beach offers a generous menu that will satisfy all desires. On the menu: good seafood platters made of fresh and local products, oysters, squid, seafood pasta, vegan gnocchi, burgers, pizzas... Even the kids have a special menu. Sip a cocktail while watching the sunset over the sea.

Sit on the terrace and enjoy delicious, refined cuisine at this elegant restaurant with a beautiful ocean view. The choice is difficult as each dish has the capacity to make you salivate: deer smoked with oak wood, crab, scallops, spicy lamb rump steak or dark chocolate panna cotta, each plate is worth the detour! Want to relax with a good drink? To take it easy, sip the delicious cocktails of the house!

On the terrace or inside, take a seat at the table to savor the idyllic setting of this small café located on the seafront. For a gourmet break or an impromptu dinner on the beach, this restaurant is not a second-rate establishment: you will find surprising flavors and succulent culinary associations. Marinated beef, shrimp and squid pizza, fish & chips with beer batter, fettuccine with mushrooms... The breakfasts are huge and the pancakes are a delight. Prefer to come on the weekend to enjoy the concerts.

This restaurant offers a breathtaking panoramic view of the Coral Sea and the Townsville coast. Enjoy good wines, cold beers and share a seafood platter when the sun sets and Townsville's lights turn on. A magical setting!

This red and blue fronted cafe/restaurant got a makeover in 2021. The new owners still offer delicious Mexican options: tapas, nachos, tacos, fajitas, burritos... not to mention the piña coladas! In a colorful and warm setting, you can eat there for breakfast, lunch or dinner. The breakfasts, with well-stocked plates, are particularly pleasant in the quiet of the morning. Located in front of the sea, this address offers in all simplicity of what to benefit without cracking its wallet.
