2 Best Restaurants in Rottnest Island, Western Australia

Pinky's Beach Club

$$ Fodor's choice

An all-day dining menu and a killer location overlooking Pinky Beach and Bathurst Lighthouse make this restaurant and bar at Discovery Rottnest Island a surefire way to fuel your body and take in the scenery. The contemporary menu changes with the seasons but you can expect tasty seafood, juicy burgers, and creative vegetarian options. There's ample outdoor seating with plenty of room for the kids to play and there's even a kids' menu. 

Hotel Rottnest

$$

This blindingly white, fortlike property was once the official summer residence for the governors of Western Australia but today it's decked out in Astroturf and bench seats as the island's social hub. Since the addition of the Samphire Rottnest resort, Hotel Rottnest no longer offers guest rooms. But it will live on as everyone's favourite pub and restaurant with epic views of Thomson Bay. The popular main bar is open all day and serves bistro-style meals along with craft beers, cocktails, and wine.
