The Boathouse Cafe and Bar Narrabeen



What a fabulous spot the Boathouse Cafe and Bar in Narrabeen is, to spend a day.



Not only serving beautifully fresh and delicious food, both inside and out on the terrace,




but also providing you and the family with the opportunity to hire a kayak, in the park right next door.


Or perhaps you would prefer to pound the pavement around the lagoon, to walk off lunch


Either way, you will love this hidden gem, overlooking Narrabeen Lagoon.
