Bombora on the River

Bombora on the River sits right on the Murray at Goolwa South, at the Goolwa Aquatic Club on Barrage Road. It is a casual riverfront spot popular with locals, and dogs are welcome in the covered outdoor area beside the water.

The dog setup. Dogs are welcome in the outdoor, undercover dining area on the riverfront - open-air but sheltered, so your dog stays comfortable with the water view. Staff are known to be friendly towards pets. It is a busy venue, so arriving early or booking helps you land a roomier outdoor table.

Good to know. The kitchen leans on local seafood, with pipis and fresh flathead the standouts, alongside brunch and a decent wine list. The draw is the setting: relaxed tables looking straight out over the river.

Getting there. Goolwa Aquatic Club, 102 Barrage Road, Goolwa South. There is parking on site at the club and Barrage Road area.

Nearby with the dogs. The Goolwa Barrage is close by for a riverside walk, scenic paths run along the bank for a leg-stretch before or after a meal, and Goolwa Beach is a short drive - check local signage for dog times.

When to go. Book or come early for the best waterfront tables, especially on weekends and warm afternoons. Good for a long, slow lunch with a water-loving dog by your side.
