Elwood Bathers

We had a great time last Friday for dinner at Elwood Bathers. Greeted by smiling faces upon entry and catching the last few rays of the sunset over the beach view (in between the rain) added to the mood. Throughout the evening the service was impeccable and made us very comfortable and happy. The wine recommendation was spot on and the food was of a very high standard and delicious. We had the large calamari to share and the taste was so good. Perfect seasoning. Followed this up with the scotch fillet which was cooked to perfection and garnished with a serve of zucchini flowers which was amazing. It was a great night of enjoyable food and service that topped off a great valentines day. Definitely worth a visit and we will be back.

We had dinner at Elwood Bathers last night essentially a place I’d chosen for the ability to see the stunning sunset. I did request a window table for this viewing pleasure but it was not accommodated, though we were close. I suppose this was due to the fact there were limited two seater tables in these locations though when we politely enquired we were rudely rebuffed. This staff member seems to have been an outlier though as everyone else we dealt with was relatively friendly. <br/ <br/ On to the decor I really enjoyed the interior which had a beachy yet elegant feel to it. Complimentary bread arrived as I sipped my pimms (which was quite heavy on the ginger ale). I chose the lamb for main which for $38 was a little fatty. I didn’t particularly enjoy the unpleasant raw onion pieces in the eggplant relish either. <br/ <br/ What was unparalleled however was the epic vantage point to witness the truly spectacular sunset as we indulged in the utterly delicious lemon soufflé tart which was a masterstroke in pastry ingenuity. Even for the atmosphere alone I thoroughly recommend a visit to this sophisticated beachfront paradise and definitely don’t skip dessert

Wonderful surrounds, friendly staff and great food. beautiful location right on the beach, watching the sunset. the night we were there, 4/12, there was a group of parents who for some reason were letting their kids run wild and just be totally annoying. the duty manager did a wonderful job of asking them to be mindful of their children, handled it beautifully. great job Elwood bathers.

Really good food and the location is great. However, it gets rather noisy so they need to put something on the ceiling so the voices don’t bounce off the walls.

I'm surprised the rating is so low on this place, because I had a lovely time here. The view is an absolute winner: it's literally on the beach, with sand and sea stretching out to eternity. An absolute treat. There were no scrambled or poached eggs on the menu, but the waiter kindly obliged when I asked for a serving (though they were quite pricey at $15). The coffee was great, and the service friendly and efficient. It's really hard to ask for anything more.
