This little bar was located almost directly opposite where we were staying so it was a convenient spot to while away a couple of hours before dinner.
It was virtually empty when we popped in for a drink on Saturday afternoon - partly because it was rainy and cold on and off and also perhaps because the bar is out on it’s own - the other bars or restaurants are about 100m or so away so unless you were staying nearby you wouldn’t find it easily.
We ordered a Matilda’s Beach which had stawberry and pineapple juice with vodka, wild strawberry liquor, cranberry and lime and a Caprioska which had lime, palm sugar and vodka ($13 each). I was a bit disappointed with the way they were served as they didn’t come in nice tall cocktail glasses and hence were downed in a few minutes. The waiter however was very friendly and took a while to make them so hopefully he added an extra shot or two!
We then ordered a bottle of rose as my sister wanted white wine and I wanted red. We also ordered some cheese which was advertised on the menu as Enterprise double brie with quince paste for $8.
It was a nice quiet spot away from the crowds but the beer prices were steeper than most of the other pubs and bars around in Byron.

The Offshore Bistro + Bar

Inside - it’s a small bar but it’s very modern, white and it’s relaxing

Our Caprioska and Matilda Sunrise cocktails which were $13 each. It was a shame they weren’t in nice tall cocktail glasses considering the cost as we drank them in a matter of minutes.

The ‘Enterprise double brie cheese with quince paste’ which was $8.
