Finlay's Kalbarri

Dined here twice in a week … both times all staff were super friendly and welcoming . Food was so good … first time shared octopus , Exmouth prawns and fish tacos …. Return visit for the char grilled lobster / crayfish…. 🦞 … All the meals were great … if I was being picky I’d have liked a bit more salad with the crayfish …., and the presentation of the panna cotta was not good … But minor details…. Both nights great time , great food and delicious beers . Thank you

Finlay is underrated on google.. This spot perfectly blends chill outdoor vibes with seriously good craft beer — brewed right on-site! The food complements the drinks beautifully — think hearty pub bites with a twist: crispy fries, juicy burgers, and sharing platters that pair perfectly with a cold pint. Service is friendly, the crowd is easy-going, and the atmosphere feels effortlessly relaxed — ideal for weekend afternoons or golden-hour catch-ups. Whether you’re a beer enthusiast or just looking for a cool outdoor hangout, this place hits the mark. 🍺✨

Our favourite spot if we visit Kalbarri! Love the rustic set up and space. Definitely love the food and beer. Kids enjoy roasting marshmallows. The t-shirts are good quality as hubby got one here 2 years back and it's still lasting well and he wears them often. So coming back again, he got another! BUT the wait for food is long, about 45mins. We were warned so we went prepared. Plus it wasn't our first time here. For the lovely food and beer, we were happy to wait and chill. Kids had their card games, adults enjoyed their beer while waiting for food. Going in winter meant we rugged up nicely so we didn't feel too cold being outside as well. Staff was always very helpful and prompt. We also made sure we made a booking in advance near the fireplace as we were a big group.

My family of 4 visited Kalbarri for 4 days and we've been to Finlay's twice! The food and beer were very delicious and we love the relaxed atmosphere. The first time we went was for dinner. We arrived an hour early from our reservation as we just reached Kalbarri and we were very hungry. The staff managed to get a table for us early too! The second time we went back for lunch on our third day. Highly recommend for you to dine at Finlay's if you are in Kalbarri and be sure to make a dinner reservation in advance!

Cool spot, we enjoyed the atmosphere. Food was ok - good quality and presentation, just needs more flavour eg dressing on side salad. Great range of house craft beers. Appreciated the service - staff were attentive and set expectations on wait time.

We visited Finlay while holidaying from Perth after reading some great reviews. The venue is well set up with a lovely atmosphere — relaxed, welcoming, and thoughtfully styled. The food was enjoyable overall; well-prepared and nicely presented. That said, the tacos could use a touch more seasoning and perhaps a bit of freshness or spice to really lift the flavours. While everything tasted good, we felt the dishes could benefit from a bit more punch. As a family of five, we did find it on the pricier side, but the overall dining experience was pleasant. A nice spot for a relaxed meal — worth a visit if you're in the area.

Great atmosphere with live music on Sundays. Good food well priced and delicious. The battered beer fish had a slightly strange flavour according to one guest but that is probably just personal taste. Service was great and the other meals were amazing

The food was outstanding, really fresh and delicious We ordered by QR code in the table and didnt see where it said that everything would come together which was a shame Next time we would order smaller plates and drinks first then order mains after The server didnt seem happy to be there and we had to go and collect cutlery from what looked like a waiters station and when we ordered another drink(a large bottle of sparkling water) he brought it with no glass and there was no glassware where he had previously directed us to the cutlery so we had to go up to the bar. The ordering system asked us to tip in advance so we do wonder if his lack of sservice was because we didnt choose to tip in advance!?Or he might have been having a bad day? Food was still good enough to go back again regardless

Popped in on a busy Saturday night just at the end of school holidays and was pleasantly amazed at the beer, the atmosphere, the food, and did I say the beer? My wife and I each had a sampler paddle which only made choosing our pints harder! Each beer was very true to form and very tasty. We enjoyed pints of the Hazy and Pale Ale (taking home a four-pack of each) to pair with our amazing dinner (a quinoa/spinach/mushroom salad and fish and chips). We will definitely go back!! But this time we'll book a table because it does fill up! Outside seating was lively and lots of kids were running around having a blast. If you're looking for a quiet brew pub - this may not be your place. But if you're looking to find an amazing pub with great beer and a local, beach feel: this is definitely your place!!

Delicious food for a decent price!! It was my first time eating kangaroo and I was really pleased with how it turned out. The meat was tender and not as gamey as I thought it would be. The mussels tasted fresh and it came with enough garlic bread sticks for you to soak up the spicy, delicious sauce!! I really enjoyed my cider - wish I remember the name cuz I highly recommend it for someone who likes a light, crisp, not too sweet drink Their outdoor dining area is cute and at night, the whole place is lit using fairy lights! They also have live music - just check their blackboard for announcement

Finlay's had an amazing feel to it, they worked their restaurant around nature keeping trees in place with plenty of things to look at. All staff were very friendly, smiles on their faces, and knew how to have a laugh! We were very pleased with the food, all 3 courses. But our favourite bybfsr was the like cheesecake and the mousse. Absolutely incredible!
