Nice atmosphere especially when the weather is good. Indoor and outdoor (both covered and uncovered) seating, great selection of drinks, the alcoholic ginger beer was really nice. Pork bun, dumplings and the cabbage wedge were all tasty.
Great spot for larger groups, booking in advance best - we didn’t and were very lucky to get a table for 8 outside on a Saturday of a long weekend.
Great place for kids as there’s a big field with balls, chalk for drawing on the ground, colouring in at the tables and cornhole.
Heaps of beers to pick from, the three I tried were great. Food was such a surprise! The dumplings were delicious and food came out pretty quick. Kids meals were huge and good value.
Fantastic place, friendly and efficient staff great food and good beer selection. Recommend the deep fried dumplings and the beer tasting board.

Reviews
The Rising Tide is a popular spot known for its extensive beer selection, especially during happy hour. While the food receives mixed reviews, with some praising the dumplings and bar snacks while others find them disappointing, the atmosphere and service are highlighted positively by many visitors. The outdoor seating area with heat lamps creates a cozy ambiance, perfect for enjoying craft beers and delicious dumplings. Overall, it's recommended as a great bar spot but not necessarily a top choice for dining.Review score
