About Bobbys Cronulla

Perched right on the Cronulla esplanade, Bobby’s delivers Mediterranean seafood and open ocean views for an indulgent coastal meal. The airy waterfront dining room turns casual beach days and milestone dinners into effortless long lunches. Diners gravitate toward the kingfish ceviche, crispy-skinned fish, and grilled octopus, paired with chilled wine or a spicy margarita. Outdoors, patio tables look straight across the sand and rockpools—welcoming well-behaved dogs after a morning walk. Finish with house-made lemon tiramisu while the surf rolls in below.

  • Esplanade Ocean Views: Unobstructed beachfront tables overlook Cronulla sand and tidal rockpools along the esplanade.
  • Mediterranean Coastal Fare: Crisp-skinned fresh fish, kingfish ceviche, grilled octopus, and signature lemon tiramisu.
  • Beachside Patio: Dog-friendly outdoor patio seating welcomes pups following a coastal walk.
