Food & Beverage
Good food’s non-negotiable. Our menu takes its cues from the iconic surf trip from Malibu to Mexico – smoke, salt and share plates built for long lunches and later nights. Think chargrilled seafood, tacos done properly, and a raw bar that doesn’t mess around. Wash it down with ice-cold tins, coastal wines and margaritas of every description – because no event at the Freshwater Beach House runs dry.
Function Spaces
From cold ones and the big screen in the Main Bar, to slow shared plates in the Harbord Dining Room, to lazy afternoons in the Courtyard with that Freshie sunshine doing its thing, and upstairs at Bombies, where the tunes turn up and the night finds its feet, the Freshwater Beach House has a space for whatever you’re celebrating.
