Beach Hotel

The Beach Hotel or 'Top Pub' to the locals is the only pub on beachfront overlooking Byron Bay's Main Beach. Open from 8am each morning, start your day with a local Byron Bay blend of coffee and a fresh fruit salad. Soak up the sun in the beer garden over lunch with a cold beverage and a bite to eat from their Beach Kitchen. There is entertainment every night of the week from top Australian and international touring bands to 'Open Mic' nights for musicians starting out. Many well-known bands from Byron Bay have chosen to play at the Beach Hotel as a launch pad of their musical careers.

Federal Doma Cafe

Since opening in September 2012, it has become a magnet for locals, day-trippers, and people travelling through the hinterland en route to Nimbin or Lismore. Doma consistently serves up some of the best Japanese fare in the region. Everything from the heartiness of the miso soup through to the high quality produce is just delicious. There are also home-made burgers (meat and vegetarian), hot chips, and a daily specials board to choose from. Aside from a small traditional Japanese doma room, seating is mostly outside.
