Good food is not the only treat in this hotel's beer garden. Dining here comes with a view of Brisk Bay, with million-dollar yachts and fishing boats lying in calm water. Patonga Beach is the fisherman and yachtsman's paradise, and food-lovers like being here. They arrive for dinner by car, ferry, water taxi, and two people even flew in on hang-gliders from Pearl Beach. Patonga oysters, a two-tiered seafood platter for two, or Atlantic salmon on a bed of creamy spring onion and egg potatoes, snowpeas, baby capers and lemon beurre blanc, are most popular - as is garlic crumbed pork cutlets on leek mash.
