Beachfront Bar and Restaurant

Beachfront Bar and Restaurant sits right on the sand at Bucasia, a casual bar and eatery known for pizza nights, all-day breakfast and ocean views. Dogs are welcome on the outdoor grassed area, on a lead, which makes it a natural stop before or after a walk on Bucasia Beach out front.

The dog setup. Leashed dogs are permitted in the outdoor grassed seating area, not indoors. Staff will sometimes bring out a water bowl or a puppaccino, but this varies with how busy the venue is, so don't rely on it. Some visitors have reported it feeling less dog-friendly at peak times, so keep expectations realistic on a packed weekend.

Known for. Views straight over Bucasia Beach, wood-fired pizza, cocktails and a casual, family-friendly atmosphere. It gets busy, particularly on weekends and at sunset.

Getting there and parking. The venue is at 101 Shoal Point Road, Bucasia. On-street parking is available along Shoal Point Road and nearby streets; it can fill up during busy sittings. It's also walkable along the beach path if you're already at Seaview Park or staying nearby.

Nearby with the dogs. Bucasia Beach and Seaview Park's off-leash zone are directly out front for a walk before or after your meal. Bucasia Beachfront Caravan Resort is a short walk along the esplanade if you're staying the night.

Go early or off-peak if you want a quieter, more relaxed outdoor table with your dog. Confirm current dog policy at busy times, as space in the outdoor area is first come, first served.
