Great for outdoor dining
Neighborhood gem
Good for groups

Dulcie's is a reimagined family cottage turned restaurant bar. The menu consists of a small selection of tasty burgers, oysters, seasonal cocktails, delicious wine, and friendly chat. Dulcie’s has a long bar to sit at, a beer garden to hang in, a fireplace to warm up next to. All of our menus consider local produce and the atmosphere we aim to create is cosy, fun and comfortable. Think cool grandma crossed with cheeky grandpa vibes.

Dulcies in Merimbula is a ‘must’ for a casual lunch / dinner option. Service is attentive, the burgers fresh and delicious and the hot chips (fries) are simply the best there is! Duit! Anytime o’year! 🙂

Dulcie's Cottage is definitely not a fast food outlet, serving "plastic" food. Rather, Dulcie's burgers were excellent, reflecting how hamburgers should be made and enjoyed. The fries were also plentiful. While we were there on a Monday evening, the place was well-frequented with young people and young families.

Best burger I’ve had - absolutely cannot find any fault with the presentation, taste, how the burger holds, and the meat, greens, sauce and bun ratio. Lovely ambience and friendly staff.

At first glance this fantastic restaurant appears to be just burgers and cocktails. But, Oh how wrong you would be! The burgers are delicious and just slightly to the left of “normal “. The meat patty is full meat and generous. The sauce and mustard moon the cheese burger is unique and tasty.

We were disappointed with the loud music.. Much louder than it has been previously. Chill bluesy vibe used to be the attraction there. It was not possible to have a conversation, orders were misunderstood and service poor. A night to be forgotten for the sake of turning the volume down. Ours and other requests to turn the music down were brushed off/ignored by staff. And it was 630, not 10 o'clock.

Gday. Did not appreciate arriving at our booking, which had been made weeks earlier, by an impartial server who was more more intent on telling my 14yo son and I that we had to be out of the restaurant by 8pm, rather than actually welcoming us into your brilliant establishment. Put a real sour taste in our mouths and spoilt my son’s evening as he started stressing that we wouldn’t get our dinner in time to finish it before the dreaded deadline! We have been to Dulcies several times and it is always a highlight when we come up to stay at Pambula. Food & drinks were as good as always.

Great oysters, burgers and fries. Visitors experiencing it for the first time loved it. Simple food, cheapish and flavoursome.
