Book Direct with the Owner at Old Lodge Gallery Emporium & By The River Cafe with Accommodation Gold Coast in Gladstone, for all your restaurant and Food Reservations.
By The River Cafe arose from a desire to bring back a place for locals, travellers & holidaying customers to stop for a while & reconnect with the beauty & calmness of the river & pastoral surrounds, while enjoying good coffee & nutritious food offerings. A little place that you leave refreshed & nurtured by the magic of the river. A social place of community conversations, a little eye to eye contact & mindful listening skills amongst the Valley's natural beauty. Indoor outdoor eating, riverside tables & chilling out on the lawn.....well behaved four footed friends welcome on our lawn. Ever changing specials board, where we aim to support & source local produce where possible. A rich agricultural backdrop & a plethora of produce grown & created within the valley, a symbiotic relationship to the river, the land & the experience of the plate, is what we aim to offer our customers. A wander through the gallery emporium on your way out located in the old church, filled with works of local artisans & eclectic world treasures. A lovely way to spend a morning tea, a lazy lunch, or a little bird & if your lucky dolphin spotting....see you By The River...
