What a delightful spot and nice coffee with it. You can feed the fish for $1 cup of fish food n hear the waves lapping under the table. Not many options for food but I enjoyed a relaxing, dog friendly cuppa

What a brilliant cafe in a stunning location. I ‘d love a ceramic or china cup/mug to drink coffee from, but I understand the restraints of being next to the river and not a huge amount of space, but lifestyle considerations. Food selections are limited but enjoyed my toastie. Watching cormorants dive for fish and watching and or feeding the fish swimming around the boat shed is very special. The view over the river and mountains is spectacular.

Recommended. I spotted someone else's positive write-up for the Dunbogan Boatshed, so saved it on Google Maps under "Want to go". That note reminded me during our recent visit to Dunbogan. We visited for morning coffee and a snack during rainy conditions. Seating is limited, but we found a cosy spot and enjoyed good coffees, prepared and served by friendly staff. Glad we stopped there.

This is such a beautiful spot. My son loved feeding the fish and having a play in the water next to the cafe. My coffee was really nice and the service was wonderful. I wish we were locals so we could visit more often

Stopped down the road for a morning tea with friends. Very happy to see this place has reopened. Excellent view. Coffee outstanding. Cake was perfection. Extra care in service and atmosphere. Well done on making this a destination to head for.
