We started with delicious and reasonably priced cocktail. We recommend the metre or half a metre pizza; just perfect for our family. The pasta was very authentic and we loved the carbonara. We also really enjoyed the gnocchi. Lovely flavours. A little different to what we expected. Not a pineapple in sight. We'll be back.

Gluten Alert ! Items labelled Gluten Free in menu may not be Gluten Free…read more I have dined at North Beach Pavillion three times with the family - each time I have gone out of my way to request Gluten Free dishes from the menu (asking staff verbally for the gluten free options and then choosing only from items labelled Gluten Free on their printed menu - every time I have ended up having the GF Penne). While the food has been delicious to eat, each time I have been glutened with a noticeable inflammatory reaction shortly after eating there. On our latest visit today I asked 1) at the counter upon booking for only gluten free menu items 2) double checked with the waitress that I was ordering the Penne labelled GF in the menu and that it was in fact GF and 3) Queried another waitress upon finding small pieces of a white soft buttery tasting ingredient (looked like gnocchi) amongst the pasta each about the size of a five cent piece. I was assured it was just garlic so just ate it up. Shortly after leaving the restaurant the gluten response kicked in so I phoned them and spoke to the chef Dominic who apologised and told me that they should boil the pasta separately but they were busy and maybe it was pieces of gnocchi from another dish in amongst the pasta. He said that the gnocchi is potato based but it also includes WHEAT FLOUR ! This is a really nice restaurant otherwise I wouldn't have persevered but they are clearly negligent if they are so casual about misrepresenting their food as gluten free if in fact they don't have even basic processes in place to ensure that it is actually free from gluten - especially when a person requiring special dietary needs has gone out of their way to make them aware of this beforehand.

Quaint wee Cafe & bakery on the way into Picton. It's beautiful country and a great spot to stop,…read moresit down and listen to nature. With the echo of cars. But when the cars stop the bell birds come through loud and clear and you soak up the sun shine in joy. There's a huge parking lot to the right of the estate, easy to find a spot. There's a small kids park/playground with a swing set up. You'll find this place sort of a throw back as the guys that run this place are living true to olden day times. No modern doodads and the ladies have super long locks as they don't cut their hair with their cotton clothes. They make the bread on sight, the eggs are laid by the cluck clucks out the back so my toast and eggs were divine. The coffee is actually surprisingly good! They have small cups and big mugs for those of us that need a super hit to keep driving instead of curling up under a tree in the sunshine. There's oaken tables inside and seating outside under umbrellas out the front and a cosy outside area out the back too covered in trellis flowers and seating. There's small items that are all handmade for sale inside that I'll be going to check out soon. So if you're in the area or want to do a day trip, this is a beautiful country road drive out here with fresh air and wildlife to listen to. The cars are a watching point too. As are the bikes on good days. Lovely day trip if you want a day out.

I first visited the Yellow Deli in Katoomba and that's how I learned of this place in Picton. Just…read moredown the road from where I live. I visited this place a week after the other so it was still vivid and fresh in my mind. They are different places ran by the same people. Even the menu items are different. But as with the Yellow Deli, the food was amazing and worth the wait. Next time I think I'll try the Ruben Sandwich that they are known for. The green drink is also done right and it was my first time having it. Will be back here again and tell all my friends about it. They also are priced quite reasonable compare to most places these days. Their pies are amazing too, don't usually go for dessert but no skipping that here.

I had an iced coffee and the sumac-spiced chicken salad, very filling for $13 and such freshflavours. My company had one of the burger options and was incredibly happy, another had the pastrami sandwich (and was also very impressed by his coffee). Very keen to return for the breakfast menu, which we missed out on by about 40 minutes. I guess the only negative is that it's not very atmospheric - the furnishing is very minimalist and the sound echoes a lot which is a shame if there's a table of loud people there at the time.

Texturally alone it's a winner: super crispy on the outside, light on the inside and with bits of walnut throughout to make it fun. Flavor is right on with extra richness from the nuts. Totally delicious. Also had a spinach, pumpkin, feta and walnut salad that was excellent. The feta they use is soft and creamy and again, texturally unique next to the pumpkin and nuts. Chef clearly loves eating food. Plus everyone was friendly and happy and they sold kombucha from the fridge. Top marks, best of luck to this place.
