The seafood creamy rice in the second photo was absolutely delicious. The cocktails were great, the staff were very friendly, and the view was beautiful. We happened to catch a stunning sunset — such a wonderful experience!

Nicest cafe in Urunga. Recommend.
HIGHLY RECOMMEND! This is hands down the best restaurant in the area. The food and service never disappoints. We come here for most of our celebratory lunches and even on the busy popular days the service is prompt full of smiles and you are never waiting long for the food and drinks.

I thought it would be cold but it the atmosphere was really great. Above and beyond service from Mary who took care of us all and had incredible knowledge about the dishes so I didn't have to double check the menu. Her bubbly personality made us feel so welcomed, great portions too! Wonderful food, will definitely be back again ✨️

I haven't been to dine in for many years, but I love their fish, the chips aren't the usual from most F&C shops. Even the fish CO-OP in Coffs Harbour is dismal in comparison. And the price is very reasonable for F&C. Back to the chips, they are like home cooked, crisp, cruchie and well done, the helpings are huge. I get Barramundi mostly but they have quite a good range. If you're passing Urunga and you like seafood, you can't go wrong with Anchors Wharf...😉😁👍

Great location and service. Celebrated my wife's birthday for lunch. We shared a mushroom arrachinhi which was excellent. A bottle Margaret River Semillon savugian blanc. Main were a seafood Mornay which was good but just a bit too much sauce. I had Red Emperor, again beautiful presentation but I found the sauce overpowering the flavour of the fish. We finished off with a shared lemon marang pie which was excellent and so were the coffees. It is well priced and we will return one day.

Hands down best seafood restaurant on the Mid North Coast! Absolutely loved it. It's all about the food. Being right on the river at sunset just topped it off. Friendly staff, great service, not stuffy. Great spot for families or something more romantic too. Worth travelling for food this good!

Incredible seafood restaurant, easily the best restaurant on the Mid North Coast (yes, big call) but it is perfection. The quality of the seafood is second to noneSip on a cool drink on the deck as you watch the sunset over the Kalang river. We enjoyed the tom yum scallops - huge, juicy, cooked perfectly. Then the surf and turf - tender seared scotch fillet topped with beautiful pieces of fish, scallops, half shell mussels, half a Balmain big, king prawns in a garlicky Mornay sauce.The perfect spot for a special occasion or a night out enjoying life's pleasures, be sure to visit if you're in this beautiful part of the world
