Romantic setting, The Pier Restaurant & Bar – Townsville

Has it been a while since you treated your significant other to a romantic night out? With panoramic views overlooking the Townsville Marina, fresh, modern Australian seafood and a versatile drinks menu, The Pier Restaurant and Bar will set the perfect mood. Order the oysters Kilpatrick for entree and relax into your chair as you enjoy the nautical surroundings, before preparing yourself for one of their delicious mains. You can’t go wrong with any of the a la carte seafood selections at The Pier Restaurant and Bar, but we suggest indulging in their signature barramundi dish – caught fresh from river mouths north of Townsville. If a few cocktails are in order, we suggest either the Captain Morgan’s mojito or the vanilla espresso martini, which are sure to end the night on a high note. If you want to get in your partner’s good books, book a table at The Pier Restaurant and Bar tonight.
