Australian 18-Footers' League Limited reviews

2 Star Review by Us 2 Travel Moments “Us 2 Travel Moments”

Staff and location were amazing! Food was below average, bland and simple. We had the curry and seafood plate. Seafood plate came with a few leaves of lettuce and a bit of rice. Small serving size, left the table still hungry. Would come back for a drink, but skip on the food unfortunately.

4 Star Review by Jessica Yin

Very convenient walk from the double bay area - Decent food and generous portions with gorgeous views! However, you do have to become a member if you are from the area. It almost feels like there's a preference towards tourists / visitors.

3 Star Review by Chloe S

Went for dinner and sat in the bar area rather than resturant area. Strange ordering system (food and drinks from separate areas). Your given a buzzer and when it alerts you have to go up and collect your food yourself, as well as any cutlery sauces etc. I think this is terrible service...the waitress still had to bring the food to the service area so what little difference does it make for them to bring it an extra 5feet to the table!? The burgers were tasty, chips were very plain and very small portion size. We won't be returning.

4 Star Review by J V A

This place has a fantastic view overlooking the bay of Double bay. The bar and restaurant staff is friendly and professional. The food is good and above pub quality and is reasonably priced considering the location and the views. We had mostly good experiences here and a occasional bad one, but the issue has always been resolved by the restaurant staff. The 18 Footers yacht club is located right next to the ferry terminal in Double bay. This is a club under the nsw club act, so you need to be a either a member, guest of a member or live out side the 5 km radius to be able to sign-in as a non member. It can get busy here so if your not a member there is a chance you cant get in, especially nowadays with Covid capacity restrictions. Tip! To avoid disappointments have a reservation and book a table in the restaurant for lunch or dinner.

Attended a baby shower event here. Food was great and location was cosy while overlooking the water and Double Bay ferry wharf. Loved having the option to sit outside and enjoy the sun

4 Star Review by Dave Derby

5 Star Review by Stephen Clode

Not cheap, but, good food & service. Returning for the final of the 18 footers, with a feed & ferry ride, chasing them around!
