South Coast kingfish. Thoughtfully layered winter flavours.

Delicate kingfish meets pickled BBQ leek and a rich smoked mackerel chowder - a dish that balances freshness, warmth and depth in equal measure.

A reflection of the season and the coastline that inspires so much of our menu.

Michelle and Jack were delighted to attend the 2026 NSW Sommelier’s Wine List of the Year Awards at NSW Parliament House last night, following the honour of Bangalay Dining being named a finalist for Best NSW Wine List in a Regional NSW Venue.

It was an evening celebrating the extraordinary wines produced across our state and the passionate people behind them.

At Bangalay Dining, we pride ourselves on creating a dining experience to remember - and thoughtful wine pairings are an important part of that experience. Carefully chosen wines have the ability to elevate a dish, tell a story and make a memorable meal even more special.

When you dine with us, Jack is always happy to guide you through the wine list and suggest the perfect pairing for your meal - just ask!

Congratulations to all of the winners and finalists - how lucky we are to have such talented producers and curators across NSW.

The first day of winter calls for something new.

Introducing our seasonal Winter Menu at Bangalay Dining - a thoughtful celebration of the season, shaped by exceptional local produce, rich flavours and the quiet comfort of winter dining.

From South Coast seafood and slow-cooked favourites to warming seasonal sides and desserts worth lingering over, Executive Chef Simon Furley’s new menu is designed to be savoured slowly.

Winter has arrived - and so has a menu to match.
We look forward to welcoming you to the table.

Meet Jack!
We’re proud to share that Bangalay Dining has been named a finalist in the 2026 NSW Sommelier Wine List Awards for Best NSW Wine List in a Regional NSW Venue

We sat down with our Head Sommelier, Jack, to chat about what he loves most about being a sommelier, the role wine plays in shaping a memorable dining experience and a few of the NSW wines currently on his radar. Hint hint: Coolangatta Estate Matt Atallah

Thoughtful pairings, great conversation and a deep appreciation for the stories behind every bottle — just a small glimpse into the experience Jack helps create at Bangalay Dining.

Let us know — what’s a NSW wine you think we should all know about?
