Starting with the mains, a must-try is the Crab On Crab ($24.90++) pasta, which comes with their handmade gemelli pasta, similar to fusilli, in a creamy white wine sauce enriched with butter and garlic. It’s then topped with a whole soft shell crab. For those seeking a vegetarian alternative, the Mushroom Pesto ($19.90++) is an excellent choice too.

If you prefer other pasta styles, Clovelly offers handcrafted mafalde AKA little queens, spaghetti, and linguine as well.

For something light to savour, consider exploring their all-day brunch menu items. One standout choice is the Crab Croissant Florentine ($22.90++), featuring a buttery croissant filled with crab meat, baby spinach, and a runny egg, all lightly drizzled with a tangy hollandaise sauce.

End it off on a sweet note with the highly recommended Banana Orange Foster ($14.90++). It’s a refreshing dessert starring slices of mandarin orange, topped with caramelised banana-infused bourbon sabayon sauce, toasted almonds, and a scoop of milky coconut gelato.
