Fins Restaurant and Bar

Sustainability is a defining part of the venue’s dining style. Seafood is sourced locally where possible, while grass-fed meat and produce from organic growers and regional suppliers also feature across the menu. The result is a broad regional offering that suits diners looking for seafood as well as those who prefer a meat or produce-led choice.

The restaurant and bar format supports several types of visit. Lunch is offered on selected days, while dinner and afternoon drinking and snacking give the venue a place in both relaxed daytime plans and evening meals. The bar includes an oyster service, with oysters shucked to order, alongside cocktails, beer and wine by the glass.

Fins has a polished but ingredient-focused character, with the food carrying the main sense of occasion rather than elaborate presentation. The seafood emphasis makes it a natural choice for visitors seeking a dedicated seafood restaurant, while the broader menu and bar offering provide flexibility for groups with different preferences. It can suit a celebratory meal, a long lunch, or a drink and shared snack before dinner.

Located a short drive from the Gold Coast in the Tweed Coast dining area, the venue is positioned within Salt Village at South Kingscliff.
