Harbord Hotel

Best Known For

Wood-fired rock lobster, charred T-bone, assorted flatbreads.

Capturing the spirit and flavours of the ocean through salt, smoke and wood, head to Harbord Hotel on Moore Road in Freshwater for great food, cold beer and cracking tunes. Located just moments away from the beach, this hotel encapsulates Freshwater’s rich history and young spirit, offering a laidback haven from brekky to sundown. Standing proudly as a community landmark for more than a century, this local icon was inspired by the surf culture that has long been part of the Northern Beaches, from the name of the Balsa restaurant to surfboards lining the walls. Stop by for crab spaghettini, tomato, pangrattato, smoked chilli and basil; or linger over dinner starting with a lobster roll, before mains like charred T-bone steak, black garlic, sweet potato fries and smoky creamed corn.
