Amazing seafood, tasty fresh beer, views of the harbor and live music. One of the best venues I have been to in a long time.

Thank you to the Garden Bar Bistro team for supporting our 60th Birthday celebrations. Great service by friendly staff, and the most perfect location.
Thank you so much! We loved hosting your event, so pleased you loved your celebration!
Walking past and looked good, so we got a table for lunch. No booking, no problem. Great location, staff were friendly and the food was excellent. My only suggestion would be to have a Reserve wine list or more options. Would happily pay for some...high quality French bubbles by the glass, while sitting there overlooking the Marina.More
Thank you so much, and also great suggestion which we will take on board. Thanks again
Great view and so close to boat. Food filled the spot with good selection of food & great cocktails shared with friends. C
Fantastic location and Staff were great. We were looking forward to a nice steak but unfortunately it was really tough -not like you would want expect for a porterhouse medium to rare. Very disappointing.
We spotted this restaurant while out on a walk, it looked nice and we liked the look of the menu so we booked, or tried to book for later that evening. we were told to come and sit at the bar and they should have...something but couldn’t guarantee. Undeterred we were walking back to the restaurant later that evening when we received a call from them asking where we were, I told them we were nearly at the door so I expected them to acknowledge us when we walked in, however the guy asked if we had a booking (same guy from earlier), I explained someone had just called us to see where we were and he said he was unsure of the Availability! Finally in and seated, no table service, we ordered at the bar, the drinks came in a timely fashion but the meals come out at different times, they completely missed my friends meal altogether so most if us had eaten before she had hers. The portion sizes are small and the meals are not cheap. I wouldn’t rush back.More
Fantastic location, food is great Decor amazing away from the hustle of Arlie Beach only one complaint Who was the moron that thought those cushions seats were a good idea….please save this venue and replace those Damm cushion seats
Great all over experience. Ordered the calamari, the fish tacos and chicken curry and I honestly can’t fault any. Cocktails were great. View is one of the best we found. Bit pricey, but seems the normal for any waterfront restaurant in airlie. Beautiful set up...and friendly staff. Was a full house and surprisingly, the wait for food pr drinks wasn’t long at all. Would definitely recommend and return again.More

So happy your agent recommended The Garden Bar and you. enjoyed your experience, cocktails, view, G&T, Ceviche, Calamari, service, staff and marina! Thank you for taking the time to review
Nice food and setting but wow did we have to wait for our dinner. Thought we had been forgotten at one stage but they were apologetic and we were on holiday. I have only given an average due to the wait time. The staff were...really nice and pleasant just slightly rushed off their feet that night and it was busy.More
Thank you Vee
Excellent food and cocktails. Stumbled across this during my stay at Airlie beach. About 20 min walk out of town but we’ll worth the trip. We stayed at Airlie Beach for a week and this was one of the best places for good quality food....If you appreciate a nice meal and drink it is highly recommended.More
Thank you so much Aysea! So happy you found us!
Came here recently twice for lunch really enjoyed the view and atmosphere. Nice selection on the menu. First time ordered special of the day which was delicious -barramundi and a citrus salad. Also a passion fruit daiquiri. 2nd time a falafel and halloumi salad. Great...view looking into the water.More
Not too bad, service was decent. Good location. However, fish tacos should ALWAYS be battered (Panko crumb preferably). The fish tacos were unbattered, a bit mushy, and lacking any real flavour. Disappointing as the menu looked amazing! Cheese platter was overpriced ($37) for 3 pieces...of cheese and no meat. Cocktails were good!More
