Introducing The Sunday Roast Special at Sydney Seaplanes Lounge.
Winter Sundays call for something special and there’s no better place for a Sunday roast than our Seaplanes Lounge. Harbour views, a glass in hand, and a slow-roasted delicacy landing on the table in front of you. That's the vibe. That's the plan.
�Our Sunday Roast Special has three different options to delight your taste buds: �Salt-Crusted Prime Rib Sirloin
Slow-Cooked Lamb Shoulder
Slow Roasted Chicken
�All served with seasonal roast veg, Yorkshire pudding, and rich gravy. �
Starting at just $39, these Sunday Specials are the perfect way to brighten up a cold winter day with the family.� �Add a glass of Shiraz or dry white for $9 or a schooner of Sydney Brewery beer for $10.
Running all winter. Every Sunday. By the water.�

Did you know that May 28 was International Burger Day?
We love a classic burger and have just added a brand new 'Smash Burger' to our lunch menu for all the burger fans out there.
Here's our Smash Burger recipe to get your weekend taste buds tingling...
Take two sumptuous prime beef grilled burger patties and lightly grill it on the pan until the three thick slices of extra tasty cheese completely surrounds it and melts through the centre.
Lift that delicious stack onto a locally baked sesame milk bun with lightly grilled onion, mustard and fresh pickles with a generous serve of SSP
burger sauce on top.
Served with a side of freshly cooked chips and you have the perfect lunch by the harbour... well almost.
Absolute perfection would be the inclusion of one of our new beer tasting paddles.
If that doesn't get you craving a burger... nothing will :)

Eggs Benedict stacked with smoked salmon. Shakshouka straight from the pan.��Plates worth photographing, and a view to match. ��No rushing. Just Mum, the people she loves, and breakfast at its absolute best.

From there, it's a long French-inspired lunch by the water, finishing with a Café Gourmand: espresso served with a little flight of miniature desserts. The perfect finish for the sweetest of Mums in town.

Some nights are simply more memorable than others. �
Join us on Thursday April 23 at the iconic Sydney Seaplanes Lounge for an intimate exploration of finely paired food and wine overlooking the sparkling waters of Sydney Harbour.
This special collaboration brings together SSPL’s award-winning team of Chefs and one of the Hunter Valley’s most awarded winemakers Andrew Thomas of Thomas Wines,�a winemaker whose Braemore Semillon has become one of the most awarded in the country…�and whose Kiss Shiraz continues to define modern Hunter Valley excellence.
The experience begins with oysters… bright and fresh with citrus and sea, perfectly paired with a crisp Semillon Sauvignon Blanc.
Lightly seared scallops follow… paired with young and aged versions of the celebrated 96-point Braemore Semillon
Then an indulgent main, featuring carefully selected eye fillets paired with Thomas Wines 97-point flagship Hunter Shiraz, that lingers long after the last sip.
This is a rare collaboration of place, people, and provenance that is not to be missed.
Sixty guests. One night only.
