Social in name and character, this restaurant is a bright and vibrant place to park up for the evening with a big group of mates. Another thing that’s parked up here is the renovated ute that now boasts an electric fire, and makes for a neat spot to hang out with your drinks.
A café, bar, restaurant and venue for event hire all in one, Social Club is open early to late and strives to be a community hub where hungry visitors can feel right at home no matter the time of day. Serving only free-range meat and eggs, and plenty of gluten-free and vegan options, the menu here ranges from bountiful brunch to tapas and bigger meals. Easy-sharing is the ethos at Social Club, so be prepared for your meal to look so good that your table mates just can’t help but steal a bite.
Wines, beers, spirits and cocktails are available to the folks coming here later in the day, while if it’s a daytime pick-me-up you need, go with something from the smoothie, juice or fair trade, organic coffee menu.
