Date nights are a must when on holiday in any destination. Fortunately Yamba has quite an exceptional list of offerings in this space. We’ve collected a list of some of our favourite date night restaurants for your enjoyment next time you’re in Yamba.

El Ocaso - If you too are sad that one of our favourites ‘Barbaresco’ in Angourie closed down, then fear not - the players responsible for Barbaresco have opened El Ocaso in Coldstream St in Angourie. This bar and restaurant has gone to great lengths to perfect their menu and their ambiance. This one’s a must.

Karrikin - Karrikin offers a unique and inspired menu. The team is constantly sourcing locally to create an ever evolving four course set menu inspired by truly Australian ingredients. If you’re looking for an experience you can only enjoy here in Yamba, Karrikin is the place.

Paradiso XO - Paradiso XO is a cocktail bar and restaurant offering scrumptious share plates. Work your way through the cocktail menu as you try the likes of their crispy pork bao buns or sesame fried cauliflower.

Sandbar Restaurant - If you’re looking for some seafood to go with your Yamba holiday, this is the place. Sandbar Restaurant offers a coastal (and somewhat French) inspired menu right near Yamba Main Beach.
