Form of workThe Venue
Welcome to The Collaroy, an all-day eatery serving freshly shucked oysters, wood-fired pizza and a beachside backdrop you'll find hard to leave. Downstairs come in for a coffee and a healthy green bowl, while the kids explore the play area.
The Surf Deck, a little slice of the summer holidays on Collaroy Beach is our new addition to the Collaroy precinct. From yellowfin tuna tostadas and grilled citrus pork belly tacos, to bacon burgers and pizzas, there's a little something for everyone at The Surf Deck.
When it comes to food, there is plenty to choose from - whether it's a slice from Vinnie's Pizza or a selection of delicious snacks to enjoy with wine in hand. We are all about keeping things casual, but also offer table service at our upstairs restaurant, which is led by executive Chris Hogarth. Think local seafood, vibrant salads and meats from the charcoal grill. Once dinner wraps up, there will be live entertainment and DJs downstairs on the weekends,
