A Little Slice of the Summer Holidays: Beachfront Eatery Opens in Collaroy

A new beachfront bar has recently opened in Collaroy sitting next to The Collaroy, offering seafood-laden snacks, tropical cocktails and a sweeping view of Collaroy Beach.



Just in time for summer, Merivale opened its latest venue by the beach, The Surf Deck. The beachfront venue offers a perfect spot to swing by for some brunch or catch up with friends over tiki-style cocktails and tasty food whilst soft breezes and waves roll in the background.

And at the helm of the kitchen is Merivale executive chef Jordan Toft whose Mexican and Mediterranean-inspired menu has been tailor-fit for snacking and for sharing. Looking at the breakfast menu, you’d find the classics including House Granola made with seasonal fruits, coconut yoghurt and almond milk; and Bacon and Egg Roll with aioli, American cheese, lettuce and a soft roll.

The Food Menu, meanwhile, offers an array of seafood dishes, tacos and burgers. Think Sydney Rock Oysters with pineapple and pepper mignonette; Swordfish Carpaccio with lemon, pink peppercorn and chives; and Diner Bacon Burger with American cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion, b&b pickles and burger sauce.
