Newell Beach Takeaway - on the way to Daintree


We once did a blog on the best fish and chips in the Douglas Shire. The Newell Beach Takeaway came up fairly well with the previous owners. We were going past on Saturday after the Big Barra auction in Daintree Village and stopped for lunch.




No Crowds


Port Douglas in the distance



We tried out the new menu.



Seafood Basket $19.50
The fish (Spanish Mackerel) and chips were terrific, the calamari so so, the rest not so good.
Best deal would be a piece of fish $8 and $3 chips for $11.



Pepperoni Pizza with Anchovies $18.50
The pizza was OK but had a supermarket type base. The generous serve of Anchovies made it better and it would have been better still if the pepperoni was on top of the cheese.

Going back? I would go back for the fish and chips which were very good and better than most I have sampled in Port Douglas lately.

We enjoyed the breakfast and put it up there with the best in Port Douglas. A little while back we did a survey of breakfast places and put Cafe Fresq at the top. Restaurant Ziva is on an equal footing with Cafe Fresq so much so we have been back.
