My birthday today (and of course my twin sister’s too – happy birthday Rosemary!) We didn’t do much, mainly bummed around in the park, and spent a lot of time in the pool. However, as is the norm for us when it’s our birthday or anniversary, we wanted somewhere nice to go for dinner, and we found it in a new restaurant which opened up a couple of months ago in Kununurra called The Pump House and we can highly recommend it. We actually found it by accident one morning and they were just opening so we went in for a coffee.
The Pump House was integral functioning part of the Ord River Irrigation Scheme in 1962, and the owners Thomas and Dominique Brieg have redesigned into a restaurant, and it looks great. Located right on Lake Kununurra, the Pump House is great for breakfast, lunch or dinner, and there is also something going on in the lake to look at. If you’re in Kununurra and looking for somewhere good to eat, or to have coffee and cake, then this is well worth a visit. They open at 9am Tuesday to Friday, and 7am Saturday and Sunday for breakfast.
Another good place to eat in Kununurra is the Hotel Kununurra – their food is really good. We had the best steak sandwich there we’ve had for a long time.
