LITERALLY THE BEST FOOD ON THE COAST My wife and I have been coming here since they first opened and have never been disappointed! Tried the Rosies crispy chicken burger today instead of the normal meal I get and can honestly say one of the best burgers I have had. Happy to come every week and look forward to eating here in the future !

I have driven past Rosie's so many times, and always said to myself that I need to try them one day. So I had my car in for some tires a few weeks ago and asked the bloke at the tire place where was the nearest place to get something to eat, and he directed me to Rosie's. Well I'm glad he did. It was getting towards their closing time and there wasn't much to choose from, so they recommended the Chicken Tenders meal deal. Man was it good. Better than that Red and White, finger lickin stuff that comes in a bucket, let me tell you. Back again today and had the dinner box (winner, winner chicken dinner). Another knock out. Chicken pieces were twice the size of what you get from the Colonel, and so much more moist and tender. And service with a smile. And as an added bonus, their prices are bang on too. The price reflects the size of the meal. Do yourself a favour and give them a crack. I don't think you'll be disappointed.

I have a small business based in Marcoola about ten minutes drive away . We regularly make that trip to buy lunch, the whole workshop loves the food and in around 5 years of continuous purchasing I’ve never been disappointed once. As good as any take away in the world. If you’re hungry give them a go, you can thank me later
