General Info

Tucked along the coast at Boat Haus Cafe, this relaxed beachfront restaurant delivers a dining experience that feels both casual and thoughtfully curated. From the moment you walk in, there’s an easygoing vibe-one that invites you to settle in, browse the menu, and enjoy the ocean air while waiting for your food.

The menu leans into comfort classics with a satisfying twist. One of the standout starters is the fried calamari-crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and perfect for sharing. It pairs surprisingly well with a chilled Carlsberg, especially if you’re easing into a laid-back dinner by the sea. Moving into mains, the chicken noodles offer a hearty, flavorful option that hits all the right notes when you’re craving something warm and filling.

That said, the chicken club sandwich deserves a mention of its own. It’s stacked generously, making it ideal for a casual takeout option or a quick bite before heading out. On the other hand, if you’re staying in for a longer meal, the fried fish and chips bring that classic diner feel-golden batter, flaky fish, and a comforting portion that doesn’t disappoint.

What makes Boat Haus Cafe stand out isn’t just the food, but how everything comes together. The service is flexible and approachable, whether you’re stopping by for dinner, grabbing takeout, or lingering over cocktails with friends. The late-night food options are especially convenient, giving it an edge for those evenings that stretch a little longer than planned.

Dessert here is worth saving room for. It rounds off the experience nicely, especially after a savory-heavy meal. While the setting remains unpretentious, there’s a clear attention to detail that shows in both the food and the overall atmosphere.

In terms of location, being right on Beach Road gives it a steady flow of locals and visitors alike. Reviews often highlight the consistent quality and the welcoming feel, which makes it easy to see why people return. Whether you’re exploring nearby spots or simply looking for a dependable restaurant to unwind, Boat Haus Cafe offers a balanced mix of good food, relaxed service, and a location that naturally draws you in.

“ A great chill-out spot right next to the beach, amazing view and environment, but not efficient staff as promoted, place needs to be more tidy and staff has to be more efficient. On the other hand, good place for a normal meet up and have a chilled beer ”
