Last updated April 2026

3Sheets on the Lake in Hillarys is Perth’s go-to family restaurant where the waterfront views steal the show and the kids’ menu wins every time. This bright, breezy spot sits right on Sorrento Quay with floor-to-ceiling windows that frame dolphins and boats while little ones tuck into fish and chips or mini burgers. The relaxed vibe makes it easy for parents to unwind with a coffee while the kids burn off energy on the marina boardwalk just outside. With picnic-style tables and a kids’ play nook tucked away, it’s designed so everyone feels at home. Perfect for casual catch-ups, birthday lunches, or just treating the family to a special meal by the water. What to Bring Light layers for Perth’s changing sea breeze. A hat and sunscreen—even in winter the glare off the water is strong. A small toy or colouring book to keep little hands busy while waiting for meals. A reusable water bottle to refill at the café’s water station. Best Age Range Best for 3–10 year olds. Toddlers love watching boats and seagulls, while older kids enjoy the space to move around. High chairs are available. Good to Know Book ahead on weekends and during school holidays. No booking fee, but walk-ins can wait up to 40 minutes in peak times. All-day parking is free in the Hillarys Boat Harbour carpark just metres away. Gluten-free and vegetarian options are clearly marked on the menu. Nearby Pop next door to AQWA in Hillarys for an underwater adventure after lunch. Or stroll 5 minutes to the Hillarys playground by the beach for some post-meal playtime. Tips From Other Parents Go early on weekends—it gets busy by 11am. Bring a spare change of clothes, kids always end up with ice cream down their fronts. If you’re visiting on a sunny afternoon, request a table by the windows for the best light and views.
