PEPE’s On The Beach
PEPE’S is the ultimate beachside bar, complete with an oversized deck offering uninterrupted ocean views of Wollongong Beach.
It promises a slice of the Mediterranean with a hint of Bondi on the shores of North Wollongong Beach. The space that formerly housed the iconic Beach Bar, a popular bar in the 80s and 90s has been completely transformed to take full advantage of their beachside location. The striking nautical decor that pays homage to the Greek Islands isn’t the only change that has taken place, PEPE’S is now offering all day drinks and dining with al fresco options on their large scale deck and private cabanas, providing Wollongong with a unique product.
PEPE’S on the beach offers a unique experience to their patrons. With large scale open windows and bi-fold doors making up the face of the venue it is easy to feel the sea breeze and take in the uninterrupted ocean views. The large scaled deck, a brand new addition to the previous venue is a key feature in the design and concept of the bar, it defines the cultural fabric we are trying to emulate – both Mediterranean and Australian lifestyles are all about relaxed, outdoor living and we bring this to you complete with kabanas, hanging chairs and beach views whilst being nestled among the palm trees.
Featuring an array of tantalising, innovative dishes, the food menu reflects the Mediterranean influence and sophistication that PEPE’s on the beach has promised to bring to Wollongong. From oysters, tacos and sliders to charcuterie, seafood towers and super fresh salads, the emphasis is on food that is perfect to share, designed to complement the laid back vibe that PEPE’S on the beach is famous for.
The much-loved, local hotspot is celebrating its 10th birthday; ringing in its new era with a fresh new menu, elevated interiors and an exciting live music line-up set to bring big-name musicians and DJs to Wollongong.
Summer is set to heat up with a calendar of live performances from local music acts, with the Australian, electronic dance music band, Mashd N Kutcher, performing on NYE.
As part of Pepe’s relaunch, Novotel Wollongong Northbeach’s Executive Chef, Matthew Duggan, has curated a refreshed dining menu for the venue. The menu focuses on modern Australian and Mediterranean classics done well, from locally sourced tiger prawns and seafood towers, to ‘boozy olives’ and lobster rolls.
The upgraded interiors offer a relaxed and vibrant atmosphere that maximise Wollongong’s picturesque sea views as the backdrop from the venue’s beachfront location.
