Dulcie's is a reimagined family cottage turned restaurant bar. The menu consists of a small selection of tasty burgers, oysters, seasonal cocktails, delicious wine, and friendly chat. Dulcie’s has a long bar to sit at, a beer garden to hang in, a fireplace to warm up next to. All of our menus consider local produce and the atmosphere we aim to create is cosy, fun and comfortable. Think cool grandma crossed with cheeky grandpa vibes.

Good and drinks were excellent as well as the friendliness from all staff members. The only downside was the wait time for food. We waited shout 55 minutes for 2 burgers. It was a busy time on a Saturday night so it was busy.

My Dulcie burger was nice. Wife’s fish burger was coated in something not that appealing, batter seemed overdone. Chips were nice albeit quite salty. Volume of music made conversation difficult as we were directly under a speaker. There seemed a lot of speakers, especially if seated on the deck. The staff were friendly and attentive, although with the modern penchant for app ordering there’s not a lot of interaction with them. If you like burgers and chips, it’s the place to go.

Oh my goodness, the buffalo wings were soooo good. Great burgers too. We'll definitely have a meal at Dulcie's Cottage again when we visit Merimbula next year. Really looking forward to that!
