About Brookvale Chinese Restaurant

A Northern Beaches stalwart serving nostalgic Cantonese staples and classic daytime trolley yum cha. Big round tables equipped with lazy Susans easily accommodate multigenerational crews—from energetic toddlers watching the live fish tanks to grandparents arriving via the entrance chair lift. Regulars pack the sprawling dining room for crispy honey king prawns, Mongolian lamb, and san choy bow, especially before the footy at Brookvale Oval. Pour from BYO wine bottles or order a cold lager while steaming baskets roll straight to the table.

  • Daytime Trolley Service: Pushcarts circulate the dining room during lunch, delivering steaming dim sum directly to tables.
  • Stair Chair Lift: A dedicated mechanical lift helps elderly or mobility-impaired guests navigate the entryway stairs.
  • BYO Wine Friendly: BYO bottled wine is welcome with a per-bottle corkage fee alongside the fully licensed bar.

Before you head over

    The restaurant is situated upstairs with an entry staircase that is tricky for prams, but an elevator chair lift is available to transport less mobile guests safely.

  • Book Early Around Brookvale Oval Match Days

    If you are attending a game at Brookvale Oval, reserve a table ahead of time or arrive early to beat the post-match crowd, and park in the rear lot for easy walking access.

  • Bring Your Own Wine for $7 Corkage

    While the venue is fully licensed, diners wishing to bring their own wine can take advantage of BYO for a $7 corkage fee per bottle.
