Ember Byron Bay
Byron Bay · Nightlife & Bars
(1,082 reviews)
Jonson Street after dark has a new anchor. Ember sits at the centre of Byron's main strip, which means foot traffic, noise, and energy on weekend nights. Without review data to draw from, the honest position is this: it's a bar in the heart of town, which tells you something about the crowd and the pace. The Jonson Street location puts it close to everything, useful if you're moving between venues or need somewhere to land after dinner. Go with realistic expectations for a busy strip bar rather than a quiet local. Worth a look on a quieter weeknight to get a proper read on what it's doing.

What People Say
Devine food and service. The steak was the softest cut we’ve ever had and cooked to perfection. The sides were delectable, could not fault anything. It was so good we ate until we couldn’t move. The service was incredible with the friendliest staff and they even offered Toledo our food warm when we had to step away. Will be returning to Byron Bay just for this establishment. Thank you!
Had the best meal! Food was phenomenal, we shared the 1.1kg steak with greens and gratin, all of it was absolutely delicious. We also had the arancini and prawns to start and finished with the chocolate fondant. Service was excellent and the experience as a whole was great. It is on the pricey side but worth every penny
Amazing meal and service here on our weekend wedding anniversary getaway in Byron. Started with cocktails and oysters and then we shared two different steaks. My favourite was the Wagyu Rump 320g 6+ MBS / 560 days grain fed Shimo. We added some sides of Truffle shallot potato gratin & seasonal greens. Wine was great too!
absolutely fantastic dinner for wedding anniversary the Ember Signature Scotch Fillet steak & Lamb Rump were both faultless as was the 3 side dishes of garlic mushrooms, pear rocket & goats cheese salad & skin on rosemary chips outstanding service combined with A+ food cooked to perfection wonderful atmosphere and significant selection of wines and cocktails. The place is a well oiled machine with knowledgeable & skilled staff will definitely be back and certainly recommend a visit
Beautiful venue We were day at a table where we were elbow to elbow with the adjacent table for our anniversary dinner but after we asked to be moved it was quickly obliged Amazing attentive service Great drink options and the steak oh the steak is in our top steaks from around the world! Highly recommend and will be back again when we are in Byron!
More Nightlife & Bars in Byron Bay
Hotel Brunswick
Brunswick Heads
The pub Brunswick Heads actually drinks at. Cold beer, no-fuss food, and a front bar that hasn't tried to become something else. In a town that's resisted the Byron creep, the Brunswick Hotel is a big part of why.
Casa Luna
Byron Bay
A Latin-inflected bar on Fletcher Street with a name that promises warmth and late nights. It sits in good company on one of Byron's more reliable after-dark strips. Walk in without a plan and see where it takes you.
Beach Hotel, Byron Bay
Byron Bay
Uninterrupted views across Main Beach, cold beers on tap, and a beer garden that fills up fast on Friday afternoons. The Beach Hotel is Byron's reliable big-pub option: broad menu, mid-range prices, and a crowd that runs from post-surf families to long-session locals.
The Northern
Byron Bay
Jonson Street's most reliable night-out anchor. Live music, a workable bar, and a crowd that mixes locals with clued-in visitors. Reasonable by Byron standards, which is saying something. Check what's on before you arrive.
