Pier One Bar and Grill, Merimbula NSW

Pier One Bar and Grill 

Food: 4/5
Atmosphere: 4/5
Service: 4/5

This is one of my new faves in Merimbula. The food was great, and the view is spectacular! The staff were well trained, and because of this, it was one of the best dining experiences I've had in the area. Our glasses were never dry and the atmosphere is modern and relaxing.




Offering one of my favourite champagnes on their drink list was a big hit in my books!

Garlic bread....a little oily, yet very tasty.

Ciabatta bread with Dukkah and olive oil.

 This serving needed more Dukkah for the amount of bread served.

Chicken and cashew salad.

Sirloin steak served with salad and beer battered chips.

Asian-style calamari salad with aioli dressing - this was beautiful!

Haloumi Salad - fried haloumi cheese on a salad of baby spinach,
cucumber, tomato, spanish onion, marinated olives and lemon $15.00


Although the salad itself was light, tasty and fresh - there was too much haloumi cheese for my liking. The natural saltiness, coupled with the olives, was too overpowering.
