Good selection of light meals, cramped shared tables
Such a fantastic Australian historical site.
Built on people's poor situations in England as well as being discovered by multiple nations who sent out explorers.
Most of the bricks for the old buildings were hand made. So were the bridges, walls, chimneys and lots more. The convicts were worked really hard and in leg irons too.
We paid our respects to the old cafe area and reflection pool. Oh my.
Thoroughly recommended a visit to this historical site. Join the guided walk/tours for further insight.

It would be nice to have extra two more octopus. It was delicious!
This cafe gets ultra busy, but they handle the crowd well. I visited a couple of years back & scored a great flat white, this time mediocre! Sent the coffee back three times, third time ok! Great effort to please though, so thanks for that. Don't like takeaway cups & that's all they had. Raspberry & white chocolate muffin was rather dry.
Great place to visit. The historical stories are fascinating and very interesting. It must have been quite a terrible place to have been incarcerated as an early colony days convict. The site is spread over quite an area and quite a few hours can be spent roaming from one building/ruins to another. The scorpion rock lookout is worth the short walk up and provides a nice view (although partially obstructed by trees) over the church and some parts of the site. The boat trip is included and is free with entry, and although the $30 optional fee for the 40 minute tour of the Isle Of The Dead is about steep but I felt it was worth it to get a better understanding of why they chose the location, as well as burial priorities, plot location and adornment was very interesting.
This is a huge area. The buildings are mostly shells with no roofs. The museum displays were the best. If you are a history buff, you would enjoy this.
I was really impressed with the meal.
I ordered the hamburger and it a solid hamburger, the Relish they used was full of flavour. The burger was a decent size and ebeh used a good quality bun and fresh ingredients.
Even through they were super busy only waited 10 mins for the burger.
I would have given a 5 but the pattie was a bit cold.
I paid just under $20 bucks for a burger and chips and was well worth it (tbh I was expecting to pay more being the location etc).
