Golden Sands Tavern, Nambucca Heads NSW

Just reopened after renovations apparently, kitchen is good and steak cooked to perfection. Not many people in but probably due to only re-opening 3 hours ago. Promising. Extra kudos for grungy playlist!

Went to the Drag Bingo night we all had a great time and would like to come again when it's back on !!

We held a function (wake) for a family member at The Golden Sands Tavern. The staff went above and beyond to ensure the day was perfect, right from assisting the night before with checking our presentation equipment was compatible with their tv's, to allowing us to use the room for an extended period of time and patiently clearing away our mess. We added food in last minute and they accommodated us beautifully. The function room, with a private bar, amenities, and outdoor area for the smokers exceeded our expectations. The food was fresh and exceptional quality (everyone commented on the salt and pepper squid); and the fruit platter looked fantastic. Leading up to the day, while family were grieving and stressed, the communication from The Golden Sands provided support and confidence that things would run well. Thank you to all the staff who assisted in giving a respectful and heartfelt send off to our loved one. Especially a big thank you to Ash, Kiah, and Dusty; and to Mitch who worked the bar. We Highly recommend The Golden Sands Tavern.

Thank you, Ash, and your team for making our birthday celebrations last weekend an amazing night to remember. The Golden Sands was an unknown space, so the blind date paid off well! The function space was perfect for us to mingle, chat, and then sit down to the best meal in Nambucca. The food was well presented and delicious. Thank you for catering to our special culinary needs. Everyone had a lovely time, and we will come back.

Staff were brilliant; bar staff member was knowledgeable in her wines & could make great recommendations. We sat by the kitchen and were able to watch the chefs cooking which was fantastic; they seemed so professional and respectful to one another, and they were so lovely when we collected our meals. The food was divine; prawns and squid were perfection and so delicately cooked. I loved the two different salads they were served with. The ribs fell apart as I picked up each bone; so tender and flavoursome. The steaks were cooked exactly to order; this chef definitely knows steak!!! Would have loved a kids area but I know they can be hard to manage and maintain. All in all we could not have asked for a better night tonight ❤️
