Food Scene

By far our favourite place to eat out. Lots of choices here, but our favourite is definitely 45 on eat street. The market is an awesome vibe , live music and variety of choices to suit everyone's taste. For delicious precooked meals, We are Food is conveniently positioned in the centre if you want to eat at home. Yolis is our favourite bakery at Lifestyle Centre and serves great coffee too. Bird and co chicken is the best!

Beautiful views, old school vibes, Salt Rock Hotel is a firm favourite for us. Sit outside on the deck and order a glass of wine and a Saltys pizza, watching the waves crash on the shore. Old school buffet on certain days and lovely scones for tea. So much History in this hotel we just love it. Mom's can have a massage by the pool while the kids swim. Lovely to relax.
