Stop by for breakfast (Sunday after 9:30am) but they only serve drinks, cakes, scones, jam, and cream. It's a beautiful place, that's for sure. 5.00 for scone, jam, and cream

With such a beautiful view over Frenchman Bay, and tasty food to enjoy it with, I can strongly recommend making this your lunch spot after visiting the Gap and the Natural Bridge nearby. We had the fish and chips and the Sweet Potato salad. Couldn't fault either. Friendly staff as well.

We had a couple of flat whites at the cafe and enjoyed amazing views. The service was excellent and so were the coffees. The whaling museum was not in our budget but we did really enjoy the cafe and we could see the whaling ship. There is a fabulous gift shop and we couldn't resist the kitchy adorable whale themed salt and pepper shakers. I would highly recommend the cafe. Thanks guys.

The cafe is surprisingly nice! If you visit the Whaler's Station, this is a good place to take a rest and refuel. Price is pretty reasonable I would say. Food taste great! Love the scone! Choose a window seat for a stunning view of the sea. We even spotted a wild seal emerged from the beach!

Had lunch there, which was delicious, fresh and served up quite quickly. The staff were very friendly, and my husband was over the moon that he could actually get a Vanilla milkshake WITH malt . He's been dying to get a Malted Vanilla milkshake for months now on our travels. Thank you so much, Whalers Galley Cafe .
