With internationally recognised executive chef Sean Connolly heading the team you can expect to indulge in some simple, honest food from his ever growing playbook of dishes. Balcony has the most diverse oyster menu in Byron Bay. Connolly has a wealth of experience that spans the globe and he is a true visionary that never says no to an opportunity to share his love and passion for wonderful produce and honest food. The food ethos is all about simple fresh and honest flavours. “I’m a firm believer that the less you do to food, the better it tastes.” – Sean Connolly We have a comprehensive wine list created by one of four Masters of Wine in Australia that pair perfectly with all dishes from seafood to steak and dessert. We take pride in our extensive cocktail list that is always being updated with seasonal and local flavors. Our talented bar staff can create all the classics for you, or they can offer you twists on the classics like our chilli mojito or our Brookie’s gin and tonic with aniseed myrtle.
MENU
Here at Balcony, we believe that happy hens create beautiful eggs and because a bad day never started with cocktails, Balcony offer $13 selected cocktails and $29 Bottomless Bellini’s with our weekend brunch.
