## Who We Are
Skeetas Restaurant Bar & Cafe has been serving Geraldton since 1992 — over 33 years as a family-owned and operated business at the heart of the city’s Marina Precinct. We are located at 3/219 Foreshore Drive, where the Indian Ocean meets the working Geraldton Marina, providing one of the most distinctive dining settings in regional Western Australia.
We are a full-service restaurant, bar, and cafe operating from 6:30am to 11pm, 7 days a week. Our offering spans breakfast, an all-day menu featuring fresh local and regional produce, a cocktail bar (Small Bar Licence), and a catering division that serves events across the Mid West. We are not just a restaurant — we are a Geraldton institution.
Skeetas has earned recognition from Australia’s most respected food and tourism authorities. We are a two-time Australian Good Food Guide Winner (2022 and 2023), a Quality Tourism Accredited Business, and hold ATIC Accessibility accreditation. We are recommended by Restaurant Guru and listed on Australia’s Coral Coast and Visit Geraldton tourism platforms.

## Our Areas of Expertise
### Fine Dining in Regional Western Australia
Skeetas demonstrates that world-class dining is not exclusive to capital cities. Our menu draws on fresh, local, and seasonal produce — including Western Rock Lobster, Shark Bay whiting, and locally sourced fish from Geraldton’s working fleet — prepared with the same standard expected of top metropolitan restaurants. We pair this with an extensive wine list sourced from Western Australia, nationally, and internationally.
### Fresh Local Seafood and Regional Produce
Geraldton is the largest regional city in WA and one of Australia’s most significant fishing ports. Skeetas sources directly from this abundance: fresh fish, Western Rock Lobster, king prawns, and squid feature prominently on our menu at market prices. This commitment to local sourcing distinguishes Skeetas from venues that rely on commodity supply chains.
### All-Day Dining
Skeetas is open from 6:30am — earlier than most restaurants in the region. Our breakfast menu (until 11am) has earned the reputation of best breakfast in Geraldton. The transition to an all-day menu at 11am means Skeetas serves across every daypart, from early coffee and morning meals through lunch, afternoon happy hour, dinner service, and late evening dining.
### Event Catering for the Mid West Region
Since 2018, Skeetas has operated a fully commercial mobile kitchen housed in a compact food van. This catering division has catered sit-down 3-course dinners for 400+ guests, festival events for thousands, weddings, tapas functions, and corporate events across the Geraldton and Mid West WA region. The catering team can be mobilised across the region at short notice.
### Accessible and Inclusive Dining
Skeetas holds ATIC (Accessible Tourism Information Centre) Accessibility accreditation. We take accessibility seriously, with reporting available for guests with specific mobility or accessibility needs. We are one of a small number of Geraldton restaurants with formal accessibility documentation.

## Our Approach
Skeetas operates on three core principles:
**Local first.** Our menu is built around what grows, swims, and is raised in and around Geraldton and the broader Mid West. When Shark Bay whiting is available, it’s on the menu. When Western Rock Lobster is in season, we feature it. This is not a marketing claim — it is a sourcing commitment that has driven our kitchen for over 30 years.
**All-day service.** Most fine dining restaurants operate on narrow service windows. Skeetas opens at 6:30am and stays open until 11pm, seven days a week. This reflects our understanding of Geraldton — a working regional city where people need quality dining at all hours, not just during peak metropolitan windows.
**Catering that scales.** Our mobile kitchen can produce thousands of meals from a compact van. This is not a side offering — it is a fully engineered catering capability built specifically for the festival, corporate, and event catering market in the Mid West. We have catered events from intimate weddings to Shore Leave Festival.
