Walking distance to the village and beaches
Grab a morning coffee next door at Beachwood then take a walk up to the Lighthouse. The walk around the cliff over to Turners beach to beautiful and and unbelievable way to start your day. You can jump off the rocks if the tide is right and you will more than likely swim with the dolphins. Or stay perched with your coffee on the rocks and watch the marine life play.
'The Kiosk' at Main Beach is a gorgeous place to have a casual breakfast with the sun coming up. Unfortunately it's only open Friday to Sunday 7am to 12pm. Hanging by the Beach pool at Main Beach is one of our favourite things to do. It's got European vacation vibes down there with people laying around on the rocks and diving in and out of the pool. All are a short walk from The Black Ace and a great way to start your day.
Back from the beach, slip straight into a mediterranean brunch at Beechwood which is right next door. Find a sunny little table soak up the European vibes with Sevtap and her amazing food.
Karrakin is a phenomenal restaurant in the village and the food and drinks are unbelievable. They only work with seasonal and local produce and change the menu up accordingly. So it's always a nice surprise to see what they will be cooking up for you that night. Like most places in Yamba except a few, they are only open Thursday to Saturday, but it's worth the wait and don't forget to book.
Paradiso at the top of the high street hill is also one of our favourites for dinner. They serve modern Asian and also have a great little cocktail bar next door you can visit before you sit down.
Other dinner options are The Italian & Burger spot at the top of the hill. Or The Mexican in the Village. Or you can head out to Angourie for an amazing dinner at Barbaresco, authentic Italian food and amazing wines.
If you want something more casual for dinner but still amazing the pizzas at Drift are great, they have beautiful selection of natural wines too. Eat in or takeaway, either way is great. Sassfras pizza are great for a quick dinner for the kids. Next door to The Black Ace is Payu Thai, an institution in Yamba. You can eat in or takeaway. YumYum's Angourie is now in the village and is a great breakfast and lunch option, they too use a selection of local and seasonal produce.
All restaurants you should book in advance. Nights open and seated numbers are limited so get in early!
