We were brought there by a private tour guide as a good stop for lunch. It was. It seem you need a temporary membership, which is no charge, no problem and only requires an id. Then you in. Beautiful marina side spot, good food and service. My eggplant linguine was first class and my wife fully enjoyed her barramundi.

The location is wonderful and we have always had a great time on previous visits but this time we were disappoint with the food and wine list.
Charging $54 dollars for a bottle of chardonnay to have with burgers and pizza is ridiculous.
Bring back our $27-$30 chardonnays which are so much more appropriate with your menu and standard of food.
Its not a fancy restaurant.

Went with a group of friends. Chicken schnitzel burnt, thin and tasteless. Barramundi small but nice
Suggest Management try the garlic bread...need a hammer to cut thru it then impossible to eat...absolute worse ever eaten so $9 totally wasted.

We are regulars at the CYCA as visiting boaties. Over the years we have enjoyed the Club’s friendly deck bistro bar area. But my advice now is eat somewhere else. For breakfast the cafe in the park is not bad. At the club the menu is boring. The offerings may sound okay but the food is woeful. Expect 5 sad small prawns on the prawn pizza. Anything coming with gravy forget it, go home and get your gravox. The chips will be okay. The only steak is usually a T-bone. Expect a tough steak with gristle. The chicken snitty is pretty bad. Okay, sounds bad. But in fairness, after I got the worst prawn pizza I’ve ever had, I spoke to the kitchen manager and sent an email to the club. Not much has changed. And the prices are over the top for poor cafe food. The club needs to really fix this up. You might come once or even twice, the view is beautiful and what a harbour, but you won’t be a regular. We needed a feed tonight and thought, oh well we’ll give it a go. 3 large glasses of Australian wine was $55. Food was bloody aweful. Try KingsCross up the road or Double Bay (Double Pay).

Located on the eastern side of Rushcutters Bay, the Cruising Yacht Club is open and accessible to the public. There is a footpath that goes around both on the road and the waters edge. For the visitor there is a cafe, a restaurant with indoor and outdoor seating, as well as all the modern amenities.

Went with a group of four friends for lunch! Really enjoyed it. Two of us had the kale salad which were so fresh and absolutely delicious! We also ordered the fresh olives & a side of chips. The flat bread pizza was nice and the hamburger was ok. Sitting there was quiet and lovely overlooking the marina on a beautiful sunny Sydney day.

Absolutely terrible service I am actually shocked and would give 0 stars if possible
Gerard is probably the rudest person I have come across in my life
Tried taking a friend there as I have been before - will never go again
Spoke to us in a disgusting way and snatched my phone off me twice
Really shouldn’t be hired there and in future will tell everyone not to bother

We recently visited here for lunch, and this newly refurbished venue is excellent. If your planning meeting friend s or a tourist to sydney don’t miss the opportunity for a nice refreshing meal and or drink looking over all the amazing yachts and views of sydney harbour.

Well worth the visit for the great location and wonderful views of the spectacular yachts.
The renovations are excellent with giving the Club a fresh new look. Friendly staff, good bar prices and great choice on the Menu.
Whether visiting for a refreshing drink or meal its a great venue.

Service has dropped a little at the bar, people served out of order. Restaurant has changed caterer and improved range and quality! Pricing is in line with a wealthy area without being over the top and taste is good! It's always nice near the water but it's not Hawaii, lacks music to create a vibe though they used to do it🤷♀️

HI there, parking is my question - in the evening from 1800 on. Would it be better to take public transport? We are coming OTB so would actually prefer to drive.
Thanks,
