Local tip
For a casual stop, the fish-and-chips takeaway window offers a riverside alternative to dining in the restaurant.

Noosa Boathouse is a waterfront dining venue at 194 Gympie Terrace, Noosaville, floating on the Noosa River across three levels. Its setting combines river views with a relaxed, lively atmosphere, making the venue suitable for casual daytime stops, restaurant meals, drinks and organised functions. The multi-level layout gives each part of the venue its own character while keeping the river central to the experience.

Little Boaty coffee bar caters to early starts and daytime coffee breaks, with an artisanal coffee offering positioned at the water’s edge. For a more casual meal, the fish-and-chips takeaway window provides a familiar Australian option that can be enjoyed on the nearby lawn. This makes the venue suitable for visitors seeking a quick riverside bite as well as those planning a longer meal.

The main restaurant offers à la carte dining in an absolute waterfront setting. The style is polished but connected to the easygoing pace of Noosa, with the river providing a backdrop for lunch, dinner and social occasions. The menu information supports a broad restaurant format rather than a single defined cuisine, alongside the venue’s dedicated coffee and takeaway offerings.

Above the restaurant, the sunset bar provides a drinks-focused setting for the end of the day or the beginning of an evening. The elevated position supports broad views across the Noosa River, while the atmosphere shifts from daytime dining towards relaxed sunset drinks. It is a natural choice for visitors looking to combine a riverside setting with a later afternoon or evening stop.

Noosa Boathouse also caters for weddings, corporate events, groups and other functions across its three levels. Its combination of food, drinks, coffee, takeaway service and waterfront spaces gives event organisers several formats to consider. The venue is a practical choice for celebrations, group gatherings and business occasions on the Sunshine Coast, as well as for individual diners seeking a river-based dining experience in Noosaville.
