Way too overrated. Horrible customer service, staff don t believe in smiling, maybe they don t get treated right and they re miserable.
If you are in a group of 6, you get crammed upstairs like sheep, you can hardly walk from lack fo space, it s super hot we were going to suffocate and the noise is next level bad. I don t understand why it s popular. You re paying premium prices for below average products and a poor service.
I love dessert here. Great value for money and so filling.
Everything is a little too large, and a little too expensive. $65 for 2 people seems a bit much.
Nice dessert it's a bit on the pricey side
good quality dessert nice service
Drown yourself in desert's 100% worth it
Expect to line up no advanced bookings
great range of desserts but service is lacking at times especially during busy periods
Unique family friendly place to service all your sweet cravings. Massive restaurant and massive menu with desserts only! Had the famous ice cream bowl. Pretty epic, definitely to be shared between 2 or 3 or 4 or more.
Its one of the best dessert bar i have ever been to
Deserts are good staff can be annoying and ignore you.
Desserts great! Quick service But music way too loud. Cant really have a conversation without shouting. More suited for younger generation. Not ideal for families with kids
Probably just not my thing. Very popular though, can't deny that. They're onto a good thing.
If you can put up with the loud music this is dessert heaven
I will have my dessert here every second day what a lovely place, oh and the oreo crush was outstanding! YUMMY
Great food and great location! I am not much of a dessert person but would go back again if a group of friend needed a place to hang :)
Arrogant staff, you can forget about any service without arrogance or rude gestures from staff! It s like they are bothered for having you there! Mediocre place at best!
Nice desserts ! Too much to chose from really.. the pancakes were alittle on the dry flakey side . The choc mousse is divine ! And so is the pavlova! It is very loud and busy here but has a nice summer vibe . Will be back to try other desserts for sure .
This place is so good. The serving sizes are huge and can easily be shared between two people. I love the chocolate fountain pancakes. Yum!!
Great food.nice view but the staff are not friendly
I spend nearly everynight at bay vista best service by far
It's not bad. More about convenience due to so much selection. Quite pricey.
It's Bay Vista, enough said.portions are great, quality is excellent and atmosphere is loud yet bareable.
They got my order wrong eich never came out i ended up going in and cheking what has happendd and they never did it mind you i waited 20 minutes for it it was busy but not too busy
Definately an experience to go here. Ice creams are massive. Gets pretty busy.
Great dessert cafe. Loving those huge bowl of dessert mix.
Amazing food. Staff are friendly. Went on a Thursday night and it was extremely busy (with a line out the door)
Looking for huge serving sizes or delicious desserts, drinks and even savoury crepes? This place is amazing. Definitely go on an empty stomach!
Awesome spot for late night hangout. Bought the ice cream bowl and cheesecake. Ice cream bowl looks great and the quantity is huge, but basic ice cream. The NY cheesecake is brilliant - yummy!
Always amazing and always delicious, the menu is huge and you have so much to chose from. The best deserts in Sydney!
Overpriced food but nice. The place is very next to the beach.
If you're a dessert fan, you're going to go nuts for this place! It is dessert overload with upbeat music and a busy vibe with lots of satisfied people.
The waitress nothing to do,keep walk around and walk around,every 2-3 minutes come to disturb ask for take glass.
Teenagers will love it, portions are big, lots of variety, it s tailored more to volume than trying to be the best and it works for that purpose. Feels like a night club dessert restaurant.
Nice dessert restaurant, but it is very crowded Banoffee, Rocky Mountain and Mortal Sin.
No words to describe other than unbelievably delicious desserts. Tried the "Triple choc mud cake" with the chocolate fondu and was blown away and off into another world. I'll in no doubt be coming back soon. However the front man of the bar could've been nicer as he didn't make a great first impression.
3 stars for a good atmosphere, but honestly, you can buy better desserts from Adli. Crepes are good though. Apple crumble is terrible. Been here a handful of times with my girlfriend, and each time one of us ends up not eating their dessert. 50/50 chance of choosing something enjoyable.
nice place to have dessert after going to hurricanes. the place seemed pretty busy.
Fantastic service from management and staying open till 01:00am.... Fantastic!!!!!!
Favourite dessert place, great selection of food. Highly recommend the thick shakes!
The deserts are alright. The prices are a bit high. The service is fine, nothing great. The seating is very cramped and tiny. Not much room on the tables. Chairs aren't too comfortable. The ice creams taste pretty great and are great quality.
Came by for an after dinner dessert feast with family and friends. The first thing you notice when you walk in is the popularity with customers yet we were quickly seated as the staff were well organised in ensuring customers were looked after We were seated on the second level and enjoyed a very comfortable vibe while dining. This place is surely a dessert and chocolate lovers diners delight.
Poor service. We finished our coffees even before the cakes were served!
Besides this place being super busy like every single night and having such a difficult time finding parking, the best desserts I ve had and the only dessert place I ll ever go to and recommend to others.
excellent place for ice cream after dinner. You will leave bloated.
Don't eat for a day before you go here. Helpings are huge.
Edit: After coming here a few times and experiencing the poor service, definitely not coming back anymore. The desserts made it okay for a while but that's that. Our order was given to a table who didn't even order the item, they didn't even realise their mistake when the customer looked surprised - I could see this the whole time - we waited for ages waiting for them to realise - no one did - I then had to approach one of the teen staff members lazing around chatting to another staff member on a busy Sunday afternoon - she went "OOoooOh", as the tube light finally turned on regarding their mistake. Absolutely no apologies or anything was given after waiting for so long. All not-so-bright teens I'm afraid. On top of that the dessert made me feel sick. You've lost a few customers that's for sure.

Come here often for sating our sweet tooths by the sea. The pavlova sundae is heavenly - my fave!
Staff were friendly, desserts were nice and presented pretty. It's a nice atmosphere with the beach view just across the road. The place is alive while not being to busy. My friends and I had heaps of fun and can't wait to try what else is on the menu.
Food was not prepared properly and the presentation was just Aweful. Waffle was cold and hard ,pancake was way too sweet and no service was non existence. Also a rip off money wise. never go there again !
I cannot get enough of Bay Vista. They provide great food, quick service and the second floor is a nice and quiet for hanging out with friends. I've now tried most of the dessert bowls and they are always worth the money as they are absolutely to die for! The pancakes as well are great, especially the mascarpone and blueberry ones.
MUSIC IS EXTREMELY loud, couldn't hear each other, prices are expensive as well.
Nice locale next to sea. Perfect for afternoon dessert and weekend night gathering
More people the better
Not recommended going alone :)
The desserts here are INSANE. Dangerously good. Watch out for the peanut butter concrete shake though... It's really something. You may need a team of people to finish it.
One of the best places for Ice creams. The menu has a very wide selection of various tastes and combinations you can imagine. Located on two floors on the Grand parade. Gets very crowded during peak times and weekends.
Bad customer service. Expected more from a well-known and established business!!!!
We usually attend Bay Vista on weekends with my family. I ordered a large coffee but they brought me a small. I requested my order corrected was advised it would be. After waiting for 15 minutes I went to the counter to see what was happening as we were almost ready to leave and the Manager of Bay Vista advised I had ordered a small and that us the reason my coffee was not being delivered. I requested a refund. Atrocious response.
Bad customer service. Will not be attending again.
Tried the NYC Cheesecake with waffles. It was OK. Nothing special. Good ambience though.
Great vibe & atmosphere! A lot of people visit this place so its always packed & busy. Wide variety of desserts & drinks, some average and some better than average.
Amazing dessert Bar. If you looking for something sweet this is the place to go, beach front is a plus
Lemon and Sugar Crepes tasted like undercooked pancakes, I would not recommend them. Even if it was good, one single crepe is not worth $17.90. There were more seeds in my slice of lemon then there was lemon itself. A memorial video on the mounted TV was showcasing a photo reel of a man who died. However, the content of the reel was inappropriate as it showed him black facing and various pictures of him with strippers. Would not recommend. The customer service of the various waitressses was lacklustre, they also just stood around talking for the majority of our meal.
Bay Vista is a great place to meet up with friends. Can get a bit noisy and is a little bit on the pricey side but it s always good service and mouth watering desserts! Hits that chocolate craving perfectly and definitely insta worthy.
I have been going to Bayvista for years, but I have been overseas for work so I haven t been back in a while. I was really disappointed to go a couple days ago and find an elderly man at the door greet me. The food was amazing as usual but he ruined our experience with his rudeness. He refused to seat us on a booth after we d waited because we weren t a group of 4 for whom which booths are apparently now reserved for. Me, my partner and my sister got a dessert and drink each, while the 4 that sat on the booth ordered one cake to share. We had to leave our tea s on the seat as the small circular table he put us on couldn t fit everything. Maybe under new management? Hopefully it s just a one off!!
Other than that I would recommend everyone try the Poli Oreo Crepe!
If you want to boost your sugar level, that is your place, good service and nice desserts
Excellent desserts however it can get very busy at times.
very good view if it is not peak time so u can sit next to window
Sweetest place in Sydney. Amazing dessert menu. Good coffee. Love it!
If you love ice cream and waffle this place won t disappoint you. Cool quotes on the wall
Great food and atmosphere if you're looking for somewhere local to just chill out with some mates. I had the chocolate fondue and it was delicious. There is normally quite a line to get in, so be prepared to wait during busy evenings.
A lot of ice cream, 4 people were enough - but any less it would have been way too much.
Good dessert place, slightly too loud music for my taste.
My flavour dessert and coffee drink at Brighton let sand beach ,every time I pass I need to enjoy in there.
