I bought here in 1978. The house was raw fibro like many of the fishermen’s huts. Built in 1920 at what was known as “The Manly of Brisbane Waters”. I painted it pink back then and it earned the nickname “The Pink Nipple” .

Undoubtedly my favourite restaurant now Le Chat Noir has gone belly up because of Covid. They do a lunch special. Great view.

City advice

Getting around

The bus shelter

The shelter is opposite the bottle shop. Buses run regularly to Woy Woy where you can take a train down to Brooklyn for lunch. Phone the pub and find out if they have a live band on.
Don't miss

Sunday music on the deck of the Hardys Bay Club

Bands jam each Sunday afternoon. The food is excellent and the club is both child & dog friendly.
Don't miss

Handmade pasta

In the main Street of Woy Woy you will find Young Barons. It used to be a vibrant night spot until Covid hit. I recommend their pasta.

Saturday Ettalong Market

Cinema Paradiso is part of this delightful art deco complex. Situated nextdoor to the cinema is Bar Toto, a personal favourite of mine.
