On a recent visit to Datrwin I was impressed by the great service and coffee at the Ducks. Super breakfast one morning also, eggs perfectly poached, and everything piping hot when served. Really friendly waiters, with great smiles. Great spot to sit at the bar and watch the action on Mitchell Street. More

I ate at this bar several times during a week long visit to Darwin. When it's busy, if you sit a little "out of the way" it can be a challenge to flag down a waitress, but that's really the only problem. The food is great - I enjoyed the bruschetta and the prawn salad with bread. It was very... More

They fell apart and were bitter in taste, so I sent them back. This was followed by their belly pork and cucumber salad dish. What turned up were two very fatty belly slices on... More
