3 years agoAfter a quick day on the road we weren't expecting such a great food at the Westower Tavern, Ballina. Staff were great, and the choice was perfect. And we only got the Seniors specials - great value for $16 each.

6 months agoDespite being severely short staffed tonight, the service and food were both incredible! Super friendly staff, delicious meals and very kid friendly. Will definitely be back!

4 years agoA small group of us had dinner here recently and we enjoyed it. Out visit was to the Graziers Steakhouse dining area. There is both indoor and outdoor seating available, and we were able to reserve an outdoor table. The food was enjoyable (between us we had a variety of meals and all were happy with their meal). The staff are all happy and helpful. The kitchen is open (I like to be able to to see the kitchen) and they have an interesting viewing window into the pizza oven. There is a playground for children too. Cheers and enjoy.

4 months agoChat GPT recommended this place because it was close to the highway and I’m so glad we went! Our meals were incredible. My partner had a Schnitty with garlic prawns and I had the Ballina pizza. We were blown away, wish we lived closer!

year ago⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Outstanding Dining Experience! We had an incredible meal at Westower Tavern. The steak was cooked to absolute perfection—tender, juicy, and bursting with flavor. The fish of the day was equally impressive, fresh and expertly prepared. What truly set this place apart was the attention to detail, even with the kids’ meals. Often, children’s dishes are an afterthought, but here, they were just as well-prepared and delicious as the main courses. Our little ones devoured every bite! The service was warm and attentive, and the atmosphere was perfect for both families and those looking for a refined dining experience. We will definitely be back when visiting Ballina from Gold Coast, Highly recommend!

year agoSomething wasn't cooked right, they handled my situation with the best customer service I could possibly ask for. Specifically Beth & Jay (two awesome sisters) who served us. On top of everything they brought me out a completely new meal (I was halfway through finishing everything else, but they literally just brought out a new one. So thanks to the kitchen as well). And it all tasted excellent too. Thanks guys.

7 months agoA perfect random stop on our Brisbane to Sydney road trip. We ordered the BBQ meat lovers platter and were very impressed… the meat was incredibly tender and the pork belly was cooked to perfection: crunchy on the outside and melt-in-your-mouth inside. Friendly staff, live music and a great play area for the kids to stretch their legs after a long drive. Couldn’t ask for more! We’ll definitely be stopping here again on our next trip.
