This polished, modern bistro-microbrewery is your best option for a quality feed in the area. Stake a table on the outdoor patio (overlooking the lake and grazing kangaroos) and feast on dishes such as lamb kofta, heirloom tomatoes with goat's cheese, or a more pub-traditional steak, burger or local fish. The on-site microbrewery creates brews using local artesian water. Bookings advisable.
Cootharabar includes a kiosk serving coffee, muffins and other light bites from 8am to 11am, and the bistro itself is open for dinner nightly during Queensland school holidays.
