Loved the variety of eating places, and having a relaxed place to have a cool drink and watch the waterfront activity.

I was very excited to go and dine at the warf precinct but unfortunately it was below average food served from below average 'restaurants'. It's all one asian family that own the lot and it's the same food at every turn. great location but if you are wanting an 'aussie' experience I suggest you go elsewhere! Majority of the seafood...

Reasonably priced good food. Had the barrumundi and salad from one of the stalls, beautiful! Not a lot of parking on the wharf if it is busy. One night we parked on the wharf and the other parked in a parking area near the wharf and walked out. If it is really hot sit on the inner wharf side where... More

This was my second visit to Darwin the first in 2010 and we had dinner at the wharf with the kids and it was an enjoyable meal. So on this visit I took a mate down to check it out, seems to have gone a bit tacky and down market. Possibly was last time as well but now looks like... More

The Waterfront is, as my review title suggests, a carefree thought-out space. If I lived in Darwin, I'd buy a unit here.

Lovely clean area with plenty of green space and shade. There were also some nice places to eat or just to have a coffee.
