Whalers Seaside Dining: A Coastal Gem

So, let me tell you about this charming little place I stumbled upon: Whalers Seaside Dining in Encounter Bay. Located at 121 Franklin Parade, it’s like a postcard from paradise right across from the beach. Seriously, those ocean views? Wow. They’ve got outdoor seating, so you can soak in the sun while munching on some incredible food.

I’ve been here a couple of times, and it didn’t disappoint. With a score of 4.5 out of 5 from around 350 reviews, it seems everyone else thinks it’s the bee’s knees too. New management and a revamped menu have really made a splash.

The staff? Super friendly and accommodating – like old pals you just met. One review even raved about the seafood platter and crumbed prawns being the freshest they’ve had. And trust me, the gnocchi is a must-try. You might just find yourself dreaming about it afterward.

A tip: if you want a chance at a balcony table, booking is probably a good idea. Still, even if you’re a walk-in, they’ve been known to squeeze folks in. They do brunch, lunch, and dinner, so there’s plenty of opportunities to enjoy their casual vibe.

Oh, and don’t get me started on the desserts! It might not be perfect for every palate—some dishes have been hit-or-miss—but the overall experience balances out any hiccups.

All in all, Whalers is worth a visit if you find yourself in the area. Grab a table, soak up the view, and dig into some great food. Honestly, it’s a spot that’s hard to forget!
