Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

A very entertaining and informative tour. Our guide was passionate about the program and had a excellent sense of humour. Our queries were answered expertly and a few tricks and questions thrown in had us on our toes. Nothing was too much trouble to ensure a very enjoyable experience. We followed the tour with refreshments and some delicious barramundi spring rolls.

Excellent, excellent, excellent is all I can say.
Tour guide was knowledgeable and entertaining.
Lunch was tops, my recommendation is the Lemon Myrtle Bara.

We did not take the tour and so this review is for the restaurant only. The food can only be described as poor quality pub food. The fish portions were small, poorly presented, and over=priced. The location is pleasant but definitely not recommended for anyone who is looking for interesting, quality food...

I’d like to dine here sometime, for some reason my GPS sent me to several other properties along Marsh Rd so by the time I finally located Kookabarra it was beyond the lunch service time!
Disappointed! Maybe this is due to nearby airport radar OR the rainy weather, very odd?

If you want to do the farm tour, I would recommend that you book. It can fill up as the spots are limited. The cost of the tour was $10 and took about 45 minutes. We first walked out to where they grow veg hydroponically. It was explained how they're grown and that these veg get used in their restaurant. The tour guide was very interesting to listen to and explained the process very well. After that he handed us over to a younger man that took us inside where the Barramundi get farmed. The young man that did our tour in there spoke VERY fast, so it was hard to understand what he was saying. I was very interested in what I was seeing, I walked out of there not understanding the barramundi farming process.

Sumptuous Barramudi meal with a varied selection to choose from. A must for Barramundi lovers. Please book before you go as this place is packed most of the time.

The food was great, the fish, delicious. The service was fast and the girls were very friendly and helpful. This is a wonderful place to take disabled people, there is wheelchair access and a disabled bathroom. There is also heaps of room to maneuver a wheelchair around. We did not get to the farm tour, but I would have liked to have been able to attend. We went to the restaurant twice. I would recommend this place for a lovely lunch. It is also a great place for a larger group of people as there is so much room.

What an amazing place to visit! This is a must do while visiting the area. The farm is located a short drive from Nelson Bay, very easy to find.
I arrived today with my travel group of 12 for the tour and lunch which was great value.
We learnt so much about fish farming and hydroponics then had the most delicious baked Barramundi which melted in your mouth. The service was excellent considering the group size, thank you Nick and your great team for a memorable experience.
See you with my next group mid February!
