Restaurant
Dinner: Fri & Sat from 6pm • Brunch CLUB: Sat & Sun from 12pm
At Faith In Strangers, dining is just the beginning — but make no mistake, the food means business.
With panoramic sea views, cinematic sunsets, and a kitchen led by Jackson Berg (St. John Bread & Wine, The Goods Shed, Barletta, Quality Chop House), our restaurant delivers a full dining experience every Friday and Saturday night, with dinner, drinks, and dancing into the evening — and Brunch Club taking over the daytime on Saturdays and Sundays.
The menu is built to suit your mood — from snacks and smaller plates to generous mains and shareable dishes that anchor the table. It’s thoughtful, seasonal and produce led food designed for all kinds of occasions — whether you’re here for a date, a dinner party, or something in between.
Our Brunch Club runs every weekend from 12pm — a laid-back affair on Sundays for friends and families, and a more upbeat, adults-only vibe on Saturdays with DJs, cocktails, and that unbeatable coastal energy. Expect Jackson’s bold takes on brunch favourites alongside a sharp drinks list and a view that’s worth the booking alone.
As the evening builds, so does the energy. Lights dip. Tables clear. And the room transforms — into a dancefloor.
Whether you’re joining us for a full dinner or something more casual, we’ve got space for both. Drop in for drinks, share a few snacks at the bar, or settle in for a full evening of drinks, dining and dancing — walk-ins always welcome.
We also cater for larger groups and offerprivate hire options, from long-table dinners to full venue takeovers. For bookings of eight or more, just send a request through our reservations, we offer a ‘feasting style’ menu.
