Breakfast, lunch and functions on Bundilla Beach

Saltwater@Bundilla sits inside the Museum & Art Gallery of the Northern Territory, with lawns running down to Bundilla Beach. Join us for breakfast or lunch any day of the week, or bring us your celebration — evenings are kept for functions, on the lawns, on the veranda or indoors.

Modern Australian and Indonesian cooking, made with Territory produce.

Breakfast and lunch by the water, every day

Take a table inside, on the covered veranda, or out on the lawns above Bundilla Beach. We cook with local seafood and Eva Valley meats, and our breads and patisserie are baked locally or made in house.

Whether you are visiting the Museum or you are a local who drops in every week, you are welcome here — 8am to 3.30pm, every day of the year. 

Functions and events by the water

Weddings, corporate dinners and milestone celebrations for up to 400 guests, with Bundilla Beach in front of you and the Museum behind. 

Choose canapés, a buffet, a BBQ or a sit-down dinner, on the lawns, the veranda or indoors — and we look after the details with you from the first enquiry to the end of the night.

We cannot thank the team at Saltwater enough for helping make our wedding day so incredibly special. The service was outstanding and the entire team was so friendly, welcoming and accommodating. The food was absolutely delicious and our guests couldn’t stop talking about how amazing everything was at the venue. The staff went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly and that we felt looked after throughout the night. We are so grateful to everyone at Saltwater for helping create such a beautiful and memorable wedding for us. We would highly recommend this cafe to anyone looking for incredible food, exceptional service and genuinely friendly people. Thank you so much for making our special day even more perfect and a massive thank you to Nandhita, the Director, for everything you have done for our wedding! ❤️
