Bather's - for breaky in the cafe side 9th June 2007

3 found this helpful

Bather's, at the gorgeous Balmoral Beach on Sydney's Lower North Shore, has views to die for straight through North Head. Bather's is also a very different place for breakfast, lunch, high tea and dinner and on the informal cafe side (where you can't book) versus the more structured and expensive restaurant side.

We went for breakfast this rainy old winter morning with another young family. We always pick the cafe side and this morning we didn't have to wait and we got a beachy booth with pillows!

We all went for hot breakfasts this morning at approximately $22 each. Lisa had Eggs Benedict, Steve had the Big Breaky (which is shrinking in my opinion) and Brett and I had Poached Eggs with avocado on corn/spring onion fritters (more corn needed less spring onion me-thinks).

The service is always efficient, professional and friendly here and we were provided with colouring in items for the kids and water without asking. The bathrooms are very luxe too and there is a special tiny tots separate junior toilet.

Afterwards you can take a stroll on the promenade, go upstairs and check out the local art gallery or get a take-away coffee from the newly-opened Bather's Kiosk on the Eastern side. Another plus = it's in the Entertainment Book! The only minus = parking is a killer in Summer.
