Jun 20, 2026"Had read and heard great things about La Playa Cafe, it’s a fantastic location on the beach and atmosphere is amazingly relaxing. Great selection of food at very reasonable prices. $15 Aud for a rack of pork ribs that were tasted great and falling off the bone, stick to the local food dishes as a they are always amazing. Pizza and pasta were ok but save these for the speciality places. We’ll worth checking La Playa out even if it’s just for a cocktail in the beach"

What sets it apart from many of the others are the staff... lovely girls, lots of humour and very efficient. They work as a team and customers are serviced promptly. Prices are good as well. Backing up this review, it does get busy, particularly for tables overlooking the beach, so get there early or make a reservation"

The prices sit right in the middle between the local warungs and the western restaurants in the area. The view is perfect, which is a huge draw. However, the service definitely could be friendlier; a few smiles would be a good addition to the waitress routines. Overall, it is a solid spot."
