Park Beach Bowls Club Reviews
What a wonderful venue this is! We had a great dinner there tonight. The ladies at the bar and at the restaurant were super friendly and efficient. The meals all came out so quickly and the food was super tasty and fresh, full of flavour and great serving sizes. We look forward to our next visit: thank you!!!

What a wonderful little club. It has everything you’ll need if you’re visiting Coffs Harbour and you’re looking for great food. There is a wonderful cafe that is open from 6am for breakfast and lunch and for dinner there is an amazing Chinese restaurant inside the club. The food is so good. Lots of lovely fresh veggies and super tasty options.
All the staff I encountered at the Club were extremely friendly and helpful.
I can’t recommend this place enough.
Definitely worth a visit if you’re in town.

Went for the big members draw if your not there early I'm talking hours before draw starts you won't get a seat. And I feel it's not a very friendly or welcoming club. The food at both the food places is just ok overall there are better clubs in coffs

There’s nothing better than having a friendly bowling club with tasty food and a great atmosphere nearby to where you’re staying on holiday.
At Park Beach Bowls Club, I found the staff to be friendly and helpful. The dining space was a little tight but very manageable. However I found the food to be overpriced and underwhelming. The prices had a crafty fine print that added $2 to the price of each meal if you were not a member. A sauce on the side added $4. The ‘black Angus sirloin’ was literally tasteless. 3 small lamb cutlets were average but ok. As non-members, these two meals set us back $70 without any sauces on the side.
Would I return? Probably, but mainly for the convenience of its location to accommodation. Would I recommend if you’re after a good feed at a reasonable price? Probably not.

The outdoor section is really nice (and well protected from the weather), and is getting very popular. Food is consistently good, and we're visiting more often.

Played lawn bowls here with my family today (Sunday) and the staff here were so accommodating and helpful. They went out of their way to pull the shade awnings down over the seats and brought some water jugs out to us when we played as it was a hot day. Very cheap to play too.
Had lunch at the bistro too- food delicious and served very quickly.
Highly recommend this bowling club! Thanks for a great day🙂🙂

Nice club. Advertised Chinese lunch( with limited menu) every day at a set price (very low) turned up for Sunday lunch around 1.10pm and paid $30 each for Chinese buffet. Never again. The prawns were excellent but nothing else. Sad staff start filling their containers whilst we were still eating. Sad review as sure Club has better days.

Netty. Was. Here. Every Aussie knows the best Chinese in town will reside within the local bowling club. I asked around and everyone pointed me here for the BEST Chinese in town. Member and Non Member prices that are both really affordable. I gave it a true Netty test and ordered my favourite go to dishes for Western Style Chinese here in Australia. I had the Singapore Noodles, Salt & Pepper Pork Rib and Steamed Dim Sim. I’ll tell ya it was fantastic! The Salt & Pepper Pork Rib are on point, with some fresh chopped chilli sprinkled over, it would elevate the dish (ask for extra if you like it spicy 🌶️). The Noodles were loaded with a combination of vegetables and meat. Ahhh feels like I’m back home here with this meal!

My family attended the bistro for lunch today and were bitterly disappointed. Our chicken schnitzels were completely overpriced and undersized for the hefty $21 price tag. The amount of chips provided was dismal. I spoke to the bistro attendant who was dismissive about my feedback. I do not recommend eating here .

Most staff are friendly. Very expensive drinks if not a member and food is overpriced. Staff member Michael behind the bar was very rude when we returned a drink that was not as ordered. He would not accept it was the wrong drink although he didn't even pour it! He was very rude and hoping for a bit of conflict. No customer service skills at all! Overall it was an unpleasant experience.

Just remember to take your ID even if you are just going to have a meal. No ID no entry.
Meals are huge & filling. Has an Asian & Australian menu (as per their menu not my words). You can sign up for membership to get a cheaper price on drinks & meals.

Jack Jack restaurant was a rip-off. Went to order a meal and add on cost after add on cost. $3 extra for chips, $4 extra for sauce etc etc. Lost my appetite pretty quickly...

I was going to give 3 stars but then the first review I read also had bad things to say about the sirloin steak, and as I also had the steak I had to give 1 star. My medium rare steak was medium to well in parts, dry, as cooked on way too high heat and overly chewy, ergh... the chips were the opposite: undercooked semi raw soft oily potato chips.
94 bucks to feed 2 adults and 2 little kids. The nuggets were actually Dino nuggets. Also the plastic cups from the bar for water are that yellowed they look like they came from a deceased estate, time to replace them about a decade ago I think....
To summarise: Do better Park Bowling Club Bistro

How utterly ridiculous to not be allowed to use the atm as I didn't have my Id on me, as you need to sign in to even be allowed to get inside to where the atm is. Even though I had a photo of my Id on my phone and am 48 years old. So we were turned away on a hot day with children because the staff couldn't make a good judgement call. First time to Coffs Harbour....not a good impression. Ok it is the bowls club rules, but I am speaking out against such ridiculous arbitrary rules made up by people who are most probably dead now. How about we start using our common sense again?

Had a really great meal. Staff were friendly and helpful, good range of items on the menu at reasonable prices. We both had the chefs specials. My swordfish with mango salsa couldn't be faulted and was presented beautifully, my wife's linguine with chorizo and mushrooms was delicious.

Great place for hanging with friends when the Coffs and Planto are no longer your scene, love some of the staff (Michelle you're amazing), only giving 3 star due to food quality and pricing.
I could understand the food prices if the quality was amazing but everything needs soy, salt, gravy or sauce to hide the poor quality.. and no rice with Chinese mains but rice at lunch, seriously? 🙄😒

Even though their kitchen was closed, and much renovation happening, we can't thank Liz and staff for looking after all the ladies who held their Cake Conference over three days, very friendly, helpful and yummy sandwiches...Cheers Kerrie Allen

Dreadful.
I had the curry and rice (as per menu) but was charged $8.00 for a small serve of steamed rice. I questioned the price and received a blank stare.
The curry was well below par and was also expensive.
Never again.

didn't get the opportunity to try barefoot bowling due to the weather.
The seating areas were a little tight and hard to get around other patrons. The australian menu was delicious although for peak holiday season I presume was reflective of higher prices. Reef n Beef is a must try

5 of us went for paint and sip with friends, such a great organised activity we all enjoyed it. We had a delicious meal at the bistro prior. Bought raffle tickets for the meat trays, and 2 of us won one!
All the staff were friendly and helpful. I hadn't been to this club for quite a while and I was very impressed.
