Jonson Lane is Byron's back-of-house: the alley locals use to skip the main-street foot traffic. Bang Bang sets up here with a casual format and a price point that won't require a post-lunch rethink. The name suggests something punchy and fast-moving, which tracks with the lane's walk-in, eat-well energy. Without a deep review trail to draw from, what's clear is the positioning: affordable, unfussy, and pointed at people who want to eat well without the performance of a sit-down restaurant. For a town where a bowl of granola can run twelve dollars, a mid-range casual option on a quiet lane is worth knowing about. Worth a look if you're cutting through from the Arts Factory end.

The food was excellent except a minor error but the chef recooked it right away. Anna’s service was outstanding even the staff had to handle a high volume of dinners. Atmosphere is amazing! I highly recommend this place to anyone who come to Byron Bay.

We had a delicious meal and a great experience at Bang Bang. The kingfish sashimi was light and yummy, the trout was superb and the pork kra pao was lovely. We also had the mango sago and a light cucumber and herb salad which were also delicious. Fantastic service as well. We went suuuper early, hence the empty restaurant pics, but don't worry - it filled up plenty. Even before 6pm it was bustling, and that's on a Wednesday night.

Awesome interiors! Kingfish is delicious! We had an awkward fist interaction with the host who left to find us a table about 4 times , then told us theres no space then told us theres a kitchen table very chaotic start but ended up very delicious food which made up for it ! We did the 89$ banquet and left feeling very full! The kao siu was a heavy end with the rice bowl. The banquet gets served with abut of space between the light starts and mains which we realised a little late. Cauliflower and beef were the highlights for us! Drinks were funky in a good way- their eclectic descriptions matched the flavours. We had the green apple and the floating market.
