One of the best meals I have had all year. Naturally cool, epic sea views, banging food. Welcomed our kids with ease. Worth detouring off the highway for a night in emerald bay. We will be back
Service was fantastic and food was absolutely divine. We ordered a variety of the starters. A few favourites for me were the Australian blue vein cheese with cashews & honey & King Prawn tails with lime. For the mains we tried the grass Wagyu scotch fillet with red wine jus & chimmichurri and a few sides to accompany it. Relaxed, yet a fine dining experience. Highly recommend for date night or a dinner out with a few friends 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Soooooo leckeres Essen.Pommes mit selbstgemachter Tomatensoße und der Burrata ist der Beste, den ich je gegessen habe.Die Köche sind echt die Besten und der Service auch hervorragend.
Review 45:Delicious food and excellent service! They have a diverse menu with a variety of cuisines, very unique, and their staff are professional, relaxed and attentive. From their mezze, share plates to mains and the desserts, everything was made perfectly. Their ambiance is a standout with a beautiful ocean views.
Hands down a must visit. Food is epic and reasonably priced. Drinks encompass all your favourites as well as some creative offerings. But it’s the service that will make for a memorable visit. The crew are warm, funny, attentive - spot on with their suggestions and accommodating of all requests.
Food was absolutely delicious, would definitely recommend dining here , we will be back .. if any criticism.. it would only be the serves are not quite enough …
My partner and I came here on Sat for a birthday dinner and it was absolutely phenomenal! The idea of share plates is so different but really cool as it gave us the freedom to try multiple dishes. All flavours were so beautifully blended and food was of exceptionally high quality. I loved how many native flavours were incorporated into the cocktails too’Service was really good, everyone was so friendly and constantly checking in to ensure everything was up to standard. The entire place had such a welcoming atmosphere. The owners have done a remarkable job at matching the energy and vibe of Emerald beach within their premise and it was pretty cool to drink some cocktails and watch the surfers out in the waves.
Everything!! from the service, the view the refreshing beverages, The food the menuYou can't go wrong at "Rattle" and when you just wanna relax and not think -the staff are so knowledgeable and will order for you and will always choose the most appropriate food and beverage options just for you!This is relaxation with style. This is classy and sassy all at the same time.Love it!!
Fantastic! We were a group of 9 so had the pleasure of trying so many different dishes and every item was magnificent. Staff were extremely helpful with advising on how best to order for our group. There was a great atmosphere, casual but not too loud to chat comfortably. Highly recommended.
Fantastic atmosphere created by the extraordinary service, ocean views, and, of course, the impressive quality of the food and wine. Cannot wait for my return to the coast so I can come to Rattle again. Thank you!
Walking past and decided to call in for a drink and while reading the menu decided to have a couple of share plates and what a surprise. Generous, beautiful, delicious and although looks a little pricey delivers with friendly relaxed staff.Will go out of my way while travelling to get back
Great menu with heaps of GF options. Service was both friendly and efficient. Great setting even on a cold day like today. Superb wines. Could not fault the food or any aspect of this gem. Thoroughly enjoyed a lovely birthday lunch and encourage everyone to give this place a go. Will definitely be going back…
If you like food that is a little different from your standard restaurants Rattles will not disappoint you. A variety of delicious starters and mains can be enjoyed as share plates if desired followed by a mouthwatering dessert. With great service and wonderful food Rattles is definitely worth visiting whether it be for lunch or dinner.
This was the best food I have tasted in a very long time. I had the sirloin steak from the lunch menu as I was eating alone and a share plate was not really applicable for me. From the first taste the balance of flavours and overall eating experience Was Sublime. The atmosphere and service was also excellent. I can heartily recommend a visit.
The service was great! Everyone who served us was warm, engaging and fun. Their recommendations about the menu and drinks was helpful and spot on!!The food... was absolutely delicious!! The slow cooked lamb shoulder was amazing and the cauliflower dish (that was a recommendation from the staff) was fantastic.Huge shout out to all the team at Rattle!!We wish we would have dined here sooner and can't wait to come back.
Had the absolute pleasure of attending a birthday lunch at Rattle yesterday. Beautiful seating on the deck overlooking the ocean. Service is always outstanding with food and drinks to match. Highly reccomend booking yourself a table for a wonderful dining experience.

Love this place !! 🤩 Awesome food - the share plates are a feast !! ( don’t miss the slow baked lamb shoulder!! ) … great wine list & cocktail's 😉 … fun relaxed atmosphere with amazing ocean views ( spectacular on the Fullmoon ) … all topped by attentive friendly service !! 🌟
Beautiful lunch with special friends. Rattle is well worth a visit...amazing friendly staff, great tasty food and lovely atmosphere. What more do you want 😉
We visited Rattle for lunch and I cannot recommend it highly enough. The food was delicious and perfect for sharing between the 3 of us, the staff were very friendly and the atmosphere was lovely!
The slow cooked lamb was extremely tender and tasty and so were the sides we ordered. A wonderful eating experience so go and treat yourself at Rattle.
Another gem at Emerald Beach! Huge selection of small and large plates to share, plus sides. We chose 2 of each, our host suggested we switch the order of food arrival which was brilliant, and resulted in a wonderful dining experience. The food was delicious - we started with hummus and burrata with roasted mini tomato assortment with lavosh, followed by Balmain bugs, prawn tails with roasted carrots and the most divine chips. We are going to make another visit just to enjoy some dessert and coffee. Well done team, you guys nailed it!
4 of us came here for dinner the other day and I have to say it’s been a long time since i have had such a pleasant and tasty experience going out. The service was great, we felt right at home and they catered to any needs and helped us order the right amount of food. Most importantly the food was exceptional and very reasonably priced. I cannot recommend this restaurant enough!
Excellent place for a date night with or without the kiddos. Food is next level bliss, and then add in some cocktails, and the whole sensory food experience is one of the best on the Coffs Coast.
If you’re in Emerald Beach, this space is an absolute must visit. The food is a solid 10 out of 10. Seriously, all of our tastebuds were dancing with joy. I took my friends and family from Belgium there and they agreed it was the best food they had during their entire trip through New Zealand and Australia. And we know our food ;)But it’s not just a food, it’s the whole experience. Huey provided us with fantastic service, making everyone feel right at home. The vibes are unbeatable, super relaxed and cosy. Just what you need after a full day at the beach. The whole team goes above and beyond. It’s clear that genuinely care about their customer experience.Thanks Rattle for an unforgettable dining experience. We will definitely be back 🤌🏼💥
My Sister had her Wedding here yesterday. The team were fantastic and looked after us like we were family, and the service was faultless. The food was delicious and the cocktails were icy cold on a very warm day. The veiw is spectacular and the atmosphere is relaxed and calming. Thankyou to the Rattle team, you made the day so special.I can not recommend any more highly. You will not be disappointed.
Terrific food, drinks and a great vibe. The service is friendly and professional. We love the tasty share plates. The food is interesting and varied - something for everyone. You can have a meal or a drink with smaller plates. The sauces are delicious so order bread to soak them up or use a spoon. The oysters are always good and Rattle has a lovely wine list and cocktails.We've been to Rattle a few times and will be back.
This establishment is just what the Coffs Coast needs. Thank you for an enjoyable afternoon Huey!The food was absolutely delicious and the location and atmosphere compliment the food perfectly👌🏼I will definitely be dining here more often.
What an absolute treat! Decided to try somewhere new for our last night together for a while and Rattle did not disappoint. Whether in the kitchen or front-of-house, NOBODY was phoning it in. The perfect blend of Emerald Beach casual and high-end. Warm, friendly staff who happily helped us hicks navigate the Mediterranean-style menu which is a little different from the entree-main-dessert fare that we’re used to, but without a single arched brow in sight. And the food? Deee-lish. We certainly put a dent in the menu but left without feeling bloated. Oh, and a great range of alcohol-free drinks that actually make you feel like an adult rather than a kid at the grownups’ table. I can honestly say that it’s been some time since we’ve had such a delightful dining experience. SMH Good Food Guide, take note. There’s a new kid in town.
Another incredible lunch at Rattle - the new menu is excellent - we made up our own mezze plate and then had an huge bowl of amazing bugs with scallops and chips. Very very nice! Hugh and his very professional team have created an excellent experience- food, ambience and service in a stunning location.
We had a wonderful time on the terrace with the view of the beach. Staff were friendly and took the time for a small chat whilst taking our order. The menu is diverse and caters to many. One of us is gluten intolerant and most of menu was available to them. Overall we had quite a good evening.
Everything we ate was amazing, the desserts were to die for. Thank you so much for catering to our dietary needs at short notice and so carefully checking what we could and couldn't eat. Staff were so friendly and kind, just go here for the best food, view and atmosphere.
6/5, love this place! Great vibes, friendly staff and best location, my fav spot on the coast! Order the burrata, prosciutto, lamb, and calamari. All next level, lamb cooked perfectly and burrata has delish roasted tomatoes. Great sharing dishes and a variety. Also prob one of the best margs I’ve had!
Superb, definitely recommend so many of the Mezze dishes & then we had the most divine bugs, potato bravas & fennel & rocket salad. Very friendly service & we would definitely go back….
Last night I went to a Christmas party at Rattle. It was my first time there.We sat outside on the deck and the atmosphere was fabulous. The music was excellent , the view of sunset and the ocean was beautiful. The service was amazing. They were so attentive with our large group. The food was really good. Plenty of it, great variety. We were all so full and happy. Thanks guys for bringing such a great vibe and food together. I would go back for sure!
Another fabulous experience at Rattle Restaurant and Bar last night. Hugh is such a great host and really amplifies the experience. Service is always exceptional. We selected a number of small plates (roasted cauli, mixed grain salad, beetroot cured fish, chicken skewers, fried squid) and every dish was fresh, tasty and delicious. Really love all of the exotic spices/flavours across all of the dishes without the spicy heat. Amazing cocktail selection. The spicy margarita is a fave and never disappoints followed by a glass of the chenin blanc which paired very well with the food. Love the relaxed beachy vibe and where can you go these days where diners connect with each other about their day. And of course this restaurant has the best view to the beach.
We have dined at rattle around 6 times this year, from 2 person dates to a table of 10 people for a LONG lunch. Not once have we been disappointed with the food and experience. It’s chilled enough to relax but still fancy enough to dress up for, if that’s what you feel like… Food is some of the best in the Coffs Region and the drinks, cocktails and staff service is also always top notch. The ocean views of emerald beach from the restaurant too… amazing! Thanks for having us again last night! Definitely deserve 5 stars.. see you again soon!!
