SERVICE SERVICE SERVICE. My recent visit to the deck Bar/Cafe with a group of elderely persons for morning tea and lunch, was made so very enjoyable and easy by the exceptional service of the staff. They were extremely professional, very friendly and nothing was too much trouble for them. Definitely would recommend this venue.

The best of the best amongst the best spot to have your morning breakfast. We always come here after a scooter ride and have our breakfast. Eventhough we have a whole other choices to go to, I always say I want to have breakfast at the Lagoon. Well can you contest my choice? Just look at the pictures and this is literally what you get while enjoying your brekky. Food is warm, tasty and natural flavors preserved by its simple presentation, which is exactly what you want for a Sunday morning boost. And the serene ambiance, the breathtaking view, the chill music they play... I could go on and on! Heaven! I would like to emphasize this time I was served by Sheree and goodness, is she a gem! I was able to take a picture of the facade with her in it, I think. She matches the beauty of the location by her cheerful demeanour, engaging smile, polite and friendly service. I was doing my little jive, dancing to the music and manifesting all these positive happy aura and she acknowledged my happy mood where others would just either ignore me or simply smile. I like bringing happiness to people and I also like receiving them. Sheree is the perfect person to put in her spot especially on a Sunday morning. I also asked what tea do they have and she gave me all these choices, when I said I am in the mood for a flowery flavor so Camomile is their only choice but Sheree went out of her way and offered to check their stock coz she said they might have more choices. I like how she extends her effort and give time to accommodate her customers. Keep her! You will get more customers. I hope she gets a raise too! All in all, this is my go to for a morning date with my husband. Love, serenity, nature, simple natural food, good service and breathtaking view. Don't ask for takeout, dine in and bask in the beauty of the beach, fresh air, trees, birds, waves...

Yum! If you’ve not taken in the beach from the relaxed Lagoon Deck Bar and Kiosk you’re missing out. Lagoon Deck Bar and Kiosk do a great breakfast. We share our food experiences in our blog. Check it out at foodogenic.com.au

Went to the cafe outside for some brunch after skydiving. Perfect light breakfast to settle the stomach. Others in our group got milkshakes which unfortunately didn't seem very full and half of the glass was practically froth. Over all still quite good.
