Club Palm Beach

Club Palm Beach is an RSL club on Barrenjoey Road, a short walk from Palm Beach Wharf. Its bright dining rooms and spacious outdoor area make it a useful lunch stop on a day trip from Sydney, with several places to sit and ample parking. Meals are served in generous portions, though food quality can vary. Entry requires club membership or a temporary permit, so bring your driver’s licence to arrange one. Accessible facilities include a wheelchair-accessible entrance, restroom and parking.

Dining at the club

Club Palm Beach has a bistro and a choice of indoor and outdoor dining spaces. The rooms are bright and airy, and the outdoor area gives you room to settle in for a meal or a drink. Portions are often generous and meals are presented neatly, with prices considered reasonable for the area.

Food quality is not consistent across visits. Some meals have been enjoyed, while fish has been found bland and burgers or steaks disappointing. If a dependable dish is important to your plans, bear that variation in mind when choosing the club for lunch.
