Bayside Bistro & Bar

Set on the ground floor of InterContinental Sydney Double Bay, Bayside Bistro and Bar brings relaxed charm and stylish flair to the Eastern Suburbs. It is the kind of place where the buzz of Double Bay meets easygoing hospitality, inviting diners to settle in, sip something refreshing, and watch the neighbourhood glide by.

The kitchen leans into beloved classics with a confident hand and a nod to comfort. Think a 250g grain-fed rump steak with Diane sauce, or chicken parmigiana layered with passata and Gruyere. For grazing, chicken wings come glossed in Buffalo or smoky barbecue, while truffled mushroom arancini arrive crisp and moreish with a lick of aioli. The mood is unfussy and welcoming, with a well-judged list of drinks made for sunny afternoons and unhurried evenings.

Families are well looked after too, with staples like spaghetti Bolognese and a cheeseburger and fries, and desserts that go straight for the heart: warm chocolate pudding or a classic homemade tiramisu. Whether it is a midweek bite or a leisurely weekend linger, Bayside Bistro and Bar serves familiar flavours with a Double Bay sparkle. Swing by, bring your appetite, and let the good times roll dockside.
