Where to Eat?

Wollongong is passionate about good things to eat and drink. Its reputation as one of NSW’s premier fishing spots is reflected in the abundance of amazing seafood on offer at Wollongong’s many seaside restaurants, but there is much more to the city’s growing foodie following. Dining options in Wollongong are many, from beachside cafes to award-winning restaurants and a great variety of clubs, pubs and cool cocktail bars on offer. Visitors to Wollongong will find something to tempt all tastebuds and need look no further than Wollongong’s very own recipe book, We Love the Gong: EAT, to find the perfect spot to dine. Coffee afficionados can start the day with a perfect cup, custom blended and brewed at Wollongong’s own roastery. For a brew of a different kind, those looking for a refreshing end to the day can taste a selection of craft beers fresh from the brewery, available only on tap and with a beach view as backdrop.
