Set in lovely surrounds a nice café in a great part of the world. Place was busy but able to get a seat and out the front is much more quiet. Ordered poached eggs with bacon and tomato which was good sized and tasty. Coffee good and OJ a little disappointed. Overall a good breakfast.

Right on the edge of Pittwater, we liked the service and food of The Boathouse. Service is the same if you’re ordering a coffee or full brunch. Great bar and I’ve only had good(although sometimes slow) service. Best area is west facing on the dock. Too noisy inside. Worth a visit if your here especially since Crank Fins closed down

A beautiful café right ok the water. The place is stuffed full of fresh flowers and lovely beach house décor. The line when we first arrived was a little daunting and we couldn’t spot a table straight away but the line moved very quickly and we were able to nab a table then. The range and quality of the food was great — I ate a salad that was lovely and fresh but was so large that we only just managed to finish it between two people so be warned the portions are huge. The prices were far more reasonable than we expected for the beach side area; $ 40 got us three drinks, a piece of cake and a salad. Hit up the café before having a swim at the famous palm beach or hiking up to the lighthouse!

As if a spectacular view of the Pittwater Basin wasn’t enough, Palm Beach is a familiar sight to many Australians(and international visitors) as Summer Bay, the pristine setting of the Australian produced, prime time soap opera, Home and Away. On top of all that, there is the Boathouse! You really couldn’t ask much more from a weekend coffee spot(which actually serves three meals a day 7 days a week). The Boathouse is always an amazing visit with its clearly well thought out décor which brings hipster, organic and the outdoors together. Every detail has been meticulously thought out from old school deck chairs to table number indicators with a coastal vibe and hand painted with seagulls. Even the toilets haven’t been over looked with recycled brass pipes surrounding a huge mirror over a stone basin with amazing greenery on the side. To get every detail into a review would be impossible, it really is something that needs to be seen to fully appreciate. I’m guilty of never having had a meal at the boathouse. I’m so in love with both the Palm Beach and Balmoral Boathouses that I find an excuse to pay a visit whenever I’m in the area despite never actually needing a meal at the time. The coffee is always great and well presented and the selection of decadent sweets is absolutely to die for. If your after a way to pass sometime on the weekend it’s well worth the drive up to Palm Beach to enjoy the original Boathouse!

We had a seriously good fish and chips and a really fresh/delicious salad here and absolutely loved it… great views… and a few short steps across the road from palm beach… Definitely worth a visit… it does get busy though, so get there early!

A beautiful setting on a sunny Sydney day — fabulous place to get together with loved ones and friends ! And I only ordered the Pinot Grigio as my mate wanted white wine. A bottle of Bollinger only cost $ 90 — great value for a place of this standard. Enjoy!
