Customer Review

Very nice meals, everybody in our group of 9 was happy with the portion sizes and waiting times, is situated in a beautiful location, was picked by a local friend of our family because it has a excellent reputation I was told and bar no mash potato being available with meals instead of vegetables / salad, the meals were absolutely perfect. Table service to bring out meals wasn't offered but that's the case in most areas of Townsville compared to Melbourne I personally found but they gave me a beeper device to notify us when to go up and collect our meals which worked well. Oh, watch out for those dam scooter riders to, a young teenage girl ran into me on the footpath from behind as I was leaving but luckily I didn't get hurt. If it was a older member of our group though they would've needed urgent hospital treatment!!

Would have been better if staff cleared tables quicker. Watching pigeons and bin chickens standing on tables eating leftovers.

Apart from that negative, the atmosphere and location was beautiful. Would come again.

Great spot, lots of different areas to cater for all groups of diners. Had to queue for a while, but that's because it's very popular. Reasonably priced food and an extensive menu to suit all.

We hosted an event at Seaview Loft Bar with overseas VIPs and local guests. Exceptional food and service; knowledgeable and helpful staff. If they will have us, we will host our function again next year. It was all great but the menu and food was fabulous. Perfect location. Loved it so much went back the next night to all have dinner downstairs in the Bistro. Loved that vibe as well.

Had lunch today, ordered food along with 1/2 dozen oysters. Disappointed is understatement $38 and were size of tinned oysters.
When questioned the 5c piece sized oysters I was told " that's what we get"
This should be communicated about size at sale..
would not recommend and costumer service in kitchen department poor not wanting to resolve issue.

Huge place, right on the seafront, at The Strand. Old building that has been nicely and tastefully renovated in a more modern style, with so many separate areas to eat, drink, watch sport etc. The menu has a lot of choices and the food portions are fairly large. There is a huge banyan tree right outside, that you can sit under on large bench seats.

I ordered a well done steak but obviously what they served is medium well. We also ordered braised pork but they gave us glazed pork belly.

Over season the chips, cook the chicken to within an inch of its life, no dressing on the salad all with the hope of you buying another drink. Which turns out to be off.

This venue was recommended to me by multiple people on multiple occasions turns out Townsville really doesn't have a food scene.

There is a really good fish tank featuring the full cast of Nemo (2003) and service from staff was pretty good would recommend that bit.

The dining environment and atmosphere are very good. The taste of food needs to be improved, especially for the oysters.

A great pub to have a meal and watch the sport on the Strand. The staff are friendly and the location perfect. A little noisy if you are after a romantic dinner but that's only to be expected.
The grilled Barra was delicious

The Seaview is a bit of an institution in Townsville. Located on the lovely Strand Waterfront it is in the perfect location.
The staff were absolutely fabulous. Welcoming and warm. I had the steak, chips and salad. It would have been nice to have a choice of accompaniments - such as mashed potato or veggies. A nice place to chill after work.

We came on a Saturday afternoon and found this place by accident but we glad we did as we will be returning today for a Sunday session and lunch. The place is huge and has heaps of TVs for sports, has live bands, heaps of bars and has a general good vibe. Also good for when the sun is setting

Great local pub on The Strand in Townsville with a beautiful outlook over to the beach, very tasty meals & well priced, I wish I had of taken a picture of our meals but we were hungry and they were too tasty well worth a visit when you're in Townsville.

This place has an amazing layout by the water. Unfortunately the service was average. Ordered a beer and a snack. The Nori roll from the special has a questionable bland flavour and clearly just came out of the fridge and was sliced. Food only just started so I assume it's from the day prior. Cold and gluggy

Great pub with a variety of areas, dog friendly out the front, good food which is very fairly priced, my regular lunch spot whilst in town for a steak ($16.90 for steak + chips + salad + gravy is a winner), good calamari too .

I really enjoy a medium rare steak, except l ordered the chicken parm and the other half ordered the steak. Problem is it wasn't medium rare it was fkn blue rare. Lucky for me l ate the blue rare steak, not so lucky for the person who actually wanted a medium rare steak who had to eat chicken.

I spent a couple of hours here on a hot Sunday, sipping various beers, munching on a very nice parma, watching the sailing in the bay. There are heaps of different areas to choose to sit and relax, either solo or large group. A nice modern pub.

Terrible experience. Took the family out looking for a nice meal. We were one of the first to order, waited an hour then went to check how long the meals would be. Two had been sitting on the counter long enough to go cold. We were told it wont be long for the other three but to take the buzzer. Another 15 minutes went by, other meals now finished and we find our steaks had now been sitting for 10 minutes. Chicken wings and wedges for our daughter still hadnt been started. We both ordered medium rare steaks and as per the picture the cow could still moo. The meals were cold and the staff still somehow made it our fault for not checking more often even though they use a buzzer system. Poor form Seaview, we will not be back.

We had lunch here and were very impressed with the crumbed steaks! $13.90 for a crumbed steak including chips, salad and choice of sauce. Large portion sizes and very quick service! Super impressed and what an amazing location on the strand!

Beautiful and quiet on the beach and the views are to die for. Unfortunately the meals can't say the same. The schnitzel is over cooked and the crumbed steak is deep fried by smell of things and tastes weird. The cops and gravy are to die for, the flavour and heat wonderful. Not to bad I suppose for a pub meal. It is what it is. Cheers big ears

Ref Beer, most staff are backpackers, and certainly cannot pour a Beer. Ref meal, ordered the $11.90 Steak Sandwich, it was woeful. A 5mm thin thin steak, small lettuce, one slice tomato, a piece of beetroot, on thick bread to make it look good. And NO chips. It is the first time ever, that I have had a steak sandwich that did not come with chips. Please avoid.

Pretty on the outside, service, food and drinks let down the new renovations. Quite a wait for food which was nothing spectacular. Some members of our party ordered before others and their food came out after people's who had joined us after they ordered. Staff would rather chat between each other in front of customers than exude some amount of friendliness.

The new renos have made it pretty but it has lost its appeal to locals. There is now no sea view as such unless you are sitting at the front. It now feels like a closed in concrete hotbox. Sorry guys...I rarely go there now. It is great for tourists sad for locals.

Recently stopped in on a Monday night for meals as a group.

Been a while since I've been there, but it's had a major revamp which it was desperately in need of.

As a table, we ordered various sides and meals as there were 9 of us.
We arrived at 1815H.

The wait times were a bit undesirable, waiting 35 mins for entrees, and 55 for mains.

They weren't doing pasta that night, so offered two pizzas for $25 instead. The pizzas were tasty, but did take ages to get out to us.

Overall, it's not a bad place for a bite.
But it is one of the more popular ones, so be prepared for a wait.

Had the 200g steak with chips and salad for $12 - steak was a very fatty but beautifully cooked, salad was fresh and chips yum. I'm not a big eater so this meal was perfect size.

Do not buy the Chicken Caesar Salad. Chicken is the only nice thing in the dish. Soggy lettuce, huge croutons & fatty bacon. Presentation 2/10.

The Seaview is an old favourite. Great location and plenty of open space. There is a really nice grassed area up the back where the smokers go. It would be a nice area for a private outside party.

The pork belly was great, cleaned my plate. The chicken parmigiana was so large there were leftovers. A good meal.

It was packed. New year's eve. Repainted and renovated outside part. It does look more welcoming and vibrant atmosphere. We missed out have a meal and drink caz too busy. But we will definitely try again! Last year we had meals there, and were great!

Location as always. Renovations have been restrained so as to not go to far away from the casual nature of the place. Reviews of the food since the renovation are mixed, depending who you ask, most meals are still fair priced and pretty good.

Nice location. Good choice of food and drinks. My wife and I both got chicken in our meals. Both meals had cold chicken. My burger was almost pink. We just left. I can not recommend this place if they make a habit of selling cold chicken.

First of all you can make it NO STARS So 8 well dressed, well behaved Townsville residents aged between 57 and 70 arrive at The Sea view Hotel, asked to scan or sign in due to Corona, so we go to do it and are then told unless we have some kind of ID we can not come in, scanning in gives you ID. Very poor the way the bouncer talked and treated us, if this is the way you treat the local community, you have clearly lost the plot. Never again, there are plenty far better places to go for a quiet drink after dinner on the strand, very poor people skills. one Thumbs down from each of us, but a great night had at The Watermark

I love the new colours and renovations being done so far. The range of food available was great and I got an 200g Angus rump with chips and salad for $12.90. I haven't seen prices that like for some time. The meat was cooked to perfection with chunky chips and yummy salad. We didn't have to wait too long for the meals. All the staff were great.
