Trinity Beach Tavern

My daughter and I ate dinner here 2 nights in a row. (Friday & Saturday) We were staying nearby so this venue was ideal. The cocktails were so good and the food came out quickly. Staff were friendly. We did book each night online in case it was super busy. Friday evening was busier than Saturday. The atmosphere was relaxed and you have the option to dine inside or outside. Great place to visit for a casual dinner. I highly recommend the espresso martini and the French martini 😊

Wednesday lunch. Two entrees - Buffalo wings, which were tasty with good dipping sauce and a snapper cerviche , diced with avocado, onion, chilli and a wonderful mango sauce. Great view overlooking Trinity beach and friendly, attentive service.

We enjoyed the salt and pepper calamari, parmi and 2 kids meals. All served quickly. Loved sitting on the balcony overlooking the beach. Loved it

I was really disappointed with my dining experience at Trinity Beach Tavern. For a $44 meal, the quality fell far below expectations. The steak was overcooked and a tiny portion—I asked for rare but was served medium-well. The sweet potato fries were soggy and tasted too earthy, lacking any appeal. The garlic cream sauce was bland and under-seasoned, doing little to enhance the dish. The salad was your standard pub-style mix, but it lacked flavour and creativity. It seemed like it was dressed with a generic bottled French dressing, likely straight from a Coles or Woolworths shelf. Overall, the meal was disappointing and definitely not worth the hefty price tag. I wouldn’t return based on this experience.

Everything was good but the chips were not hot, maybe lukewarm. I like my chips to be hot & fresh so that was a major disappointment. If they're not hot at McDonald's I'm a bit unhappy. If they're not hot at a restaurant / tavern then I'm more critical because I expect things are cooked to order. I had chicken schnitzel which was a special on the day (Wednesday). The serving was big. I couldn't finish. I messed up my order as I didn't see the options for sauce. I'm sure I would have enjoyed it more with (say, pepper) sauce. My friends had chicken parmigiana and Caesar salad and both said they were good. You can't beat the location. Great views right on the water in Trinity Beach.

I came over from Adelaide, the atmosphere and staff were very welcoming and friendly. The barra was nicely cooked and the sauce was lovely. A soothing kind of dish when you’re travel tired and hungry. I swapped the roast potatoes for seasonal veg which they accommodated no problems. The menu has good variety and flexibility. The view of the beach is elevated which I love. I intend to go again to try another dish before heading back.

Great family friendly place. There was live music when we went, may have been a father's Day special. Main meals and kids meals were generous proportions. Kids meals came with a soft drink (oddly no juice substitution available) and an ice cream. We had the fish and chips, pork belly and kids cheeseburger and chips. Very tasty!

Very impressed with the overall dine-in experience. Great location for view, could spend hours just spending the moment in here. 10/10 Food great chips very well made burgers and beef. Very outstanding and deserved some recognition it does take time for food to arrive but very worth it, arrived not too hot or too cold. Good service! Would highly recommend to come and dine-in.

Amazing food. Best Mojito's I've ever had. This is a must. The ribs are amazing and the salad. Wonderful. You can look at the ocean well dining on a high top with a nice breeze. It was amazing.

The business have a good majority of their staff who definitely make their customers feel wanted and their service is excellent.The food has improved immeasurably in the last 12 months along with the service so as to make this venue with ocean views fro every table a pleasure to sit and enjoy the Far North Queensland scenery. A real winner in the pub scene on the beach at one of FNQs best beach hang outs that is cruisy and relaxing with good staff who are not in your face but do the job required to make your stay very enjoyable.Get there Gadget -get it!

Terrible service. It took us almost an hour and a half to get our food. If you want a place for a drink, it's clean and a nice atmosphere. But don't expect to get your food quickly.

Total disappointment. Cafeteria style restaurant, where we had to wait for 20 min in a line (only 1 waitress) to order the food up front, then another 15 min on a separate line at the bar. Then we were informed that the kitchen was behind and food would take 45 min to come-mind you, at this point we were all really hungry (esp the kids). When it did come, the only good thing was the garlic bread w cheese-delicious. All else was mediocre to awful: greasy chicken wings (supposedly buffalo style but not at all), Market salad was not good w cold pumpkin and beets thrown in, linguine was super greasy without any flavor and the chicken sandwich was gross. We were so hopeful that desserts would save the day, but the warm chocolate cake tasted like a shelf cake, the lemon custard pie was awful and the pavlova was the best of the three but just mediocre. The few waitresses that they actually had were harried and overworked. We felt so bad for them. This place needs more staff and a manager to fix it!! All in all, in a country where we have had amazing food consistently for 2 weeks, this stood out as the worst meal we have had. Go down the street to L'Unico's instead: great food and service.

The tandoori chicken salad with avocado is definitely the way to go. Great salads at a place that has pokies you ask? Why, yes! Leaves are dark green and crispy, cherry tomatoes ripe, a well cooked chicken breast topped with plenty of dressing. The view cannot be beat as it's right on trinity beach. The venue itself is average and service is frankly quite poor with the waitress snapping at us for not knowing our table number. But the food shines through the stale venue.

The food was delicious and the staff was very nice...but it takes forever to order and get your food. If you want to eat here you must have a lot of time to sit and wait.

We have come a couple of times for dinner. The food is ok. I had fish, my husband had steak. The other time we came, we had pizza. Out of the meals we had, the pizza was my least favourite. But, I am super picky about pizza, and most pizza in Australia is odd (to be fair) We enjoy the casual environment, played some pokie machines, and hung out in the sports bar area. We saw a large group come in for a birthday celebration, which they seemed very accommodating for as there is a lot of room for large gatherings! I would come back.

The Trinity Beach Tavern is a lovely choice for great views over-looking the Trinity Beach Esplanade and ocean from the balcony of the outdoor dining area-if you're not too fussed about the food, just the view. The staff are friendly and the sports coverage for those wanting to watch rugby, cricket, AFL etc are terrific, with numerous flat screen t.v's spread around the dining and sports areas. Not sure that this is appealing to the majority of families who aim to dine out without there being a t.v around though. I've found the menu for both lunch and dinner lacking in versatility, extensiveness and has usually left me wondering when management are going to take a good look at what their customers are looking for, to create a new dining experience that will make them want to return. I find myself wondering whether I should just go with Chicken Parma and chips or Caesar Salad-aka-boring. There is no flair or imagination used to create the kind of menu that entices customers to return again and again. The prices I think, for the kind of menu offered, are steep. The food is average and the sizes are on the small side. Ordering is via counter-service, but on the plus side, the meals are brought out to your table. A morning tea consisting of a slice of cake (large) adorned with cream and a scoop of ice-cream cost $11.95, which again, I though was a bit steep, particularly when the cake, assured as being made on the premises, tasted as if it had come directly from a Sarah-Lee box. Our visit on this occasion, for 5 people for a coffee and cake, amounted to over $70. Very disappointing. I wouldn't hurry to return to the Trinity Beach Tavern any time soon unless I'd heard there had been a major overhaul of the menu and prices. You're really better off heading down to the corner Bar and Grill for an assured excellent meal worth both the price and the view. PS-Pokies available for those who love them.

I went to the Trinity Beach Tavern for the first time last night. I found the meals to be reasonably priced, very large, quick to be made and delicious. Unfortunately, I was let down by the customer service. As someone who sees customer service to be the backbone of this industry, I was very disappointed. All three staff members I encountered were very blunt and disinterested. Anything my family or I asked to order seemed to be a burden. Everything else was wonderful though, the view, the layout and the atmosphere.
