About Cptn Jack's

Tucked directly into Yaringa Boat Harbour, Cptn Jack's pairs waterfront views across Western Port Bay with polished coastal dining. Inside, maritime views meet warm hearthside tables, where regulars lean toward the kitchen's Feed Me tasting menu—a multi-course progression featuring woodfired flatbread, fresh crudo, and local seafood. Sunny weekends draw diners onto the lawn for craft beers and casual snacks poured straight from a vintage caravan servery.

  • Harbourfront Dining: Waterfront dining set right on the marina overlooking Western Port Bay, complete with an indoor fireplace.
  • Feed Me Menus: Multi-course tasting menus alongside seasonal woodfired dishes and fresh coastal seafood.
  • Caravan Lawn Bar: Weekend outdoor sessions featuring casual drinks and bites served from a vintage lawn caravan.

  • Harbourside Relaxation Watching Boats Go By

    Located directly in Yaringa Boat Harbour, diners can sit outside on the lawn with drinks and snacks to watch boats drift across the water.

    Quite relaxing watch the boats come and go. Staff were attentive and interactive. Good wine list. Great parking. We sat in the gardens afterwards to soak up the atmosphere.

    I recommend the Saturday and Sunday afternoon on the lawn with a beer and some snacks from the vintage caravan servery with some live music
