Experience Byron Bay’s restaurants & bars
Supernatural wine cellars
‘drink with your mouth, eat with your hands’
This little wine bar just one block away from the beach has an enthusiastic and happy vibe. As the name says it’s all natural, the wines are all organic/biodynamic and the food is farm fresh. They have a big range of “orange wines” if you would like to go out of the box and try something unique. A little dance party is never a bad idea here. A really must visit if you are in Byron.

Bay Leaf
This coffee bar has it all, from vegan to meat, coffee to home made iced tea’s or herb elixirs. One of the busiest coffee bars in town, with a vintage look.. The line for a table can get quit long in the weekends but the food is totally worth it! Everything is daily fresh.The coffees are well priced.

The always busy bar byron fresh the names says it all, fresh ingredients are used in this kitchen. They focus on superfoods, free range and organic. They also have a take away kiosk with a mini bakery filled with lots of stuff that looks very good. Happy hour starts here at 3pm till 6pm.

Safya cafe
Cozy coffee bar on the corner & they have amazing breakfast. It’s one street away from the main street so a little hidden but it still very bruising. Good coffees and chai lattes, for the ones who like some spice. A nice outside terrace to wake up properly and soak up the morning sun.

Tree house on Belongil
Food to hug the body, music to sooth the soul. Busy Hippie kinda place underneath the trees, with everyday life music of local musicians. A bit further out of Byron city centre, you probably need a bike to get there unless you feel like a good healthy walk. They have an easy style food and wood fired pizza’s for a good price with a big range of cocktails.

Japonaise kitchen
If you’re in the mood for some really good asain food then this is the best choice you can make for sure! This restaurant looks authentic and cute with a really good Japanese food menu.
