We went to Mr Tipsy's for Valentine's dinner. They were very busy, so booking ahead is essential. We were greeted by Pete straight away. There was no waiting and we were seated without delay. We had three people waiting on us so once again the service was great and fast. We ordered the pulled pork red curry with steamed rice, the Karroke (beef and potato croquettes), and the Nom Nom Chicken. More than enough for two people. The food tasted great, it was well presented, and certainly worth coming back for. Definitely one of the premium dining experiences in Lennox Head.

Amazing setting with beach in the background, breezy and cool. We had the lunch set menu which we felt was very high quality and great value for the standard of food. Every single dish that came out was absolutely amazing. Drinks were also excellent. Recommend their Chilli margarita. Very pleased to have picked Shelter for a celebratory meal. Thanks
