Never a good idea to challenge fate. We had been Mosman Rowers for breakfast previously and, although the service then was execrable, the food was very good - so we entered with the rationale ‘how bad can it be?’.
Oh dear. The service was as we remembered it (although after a certain amount of elapsed time the concept of ‘service’ ceases to be relevant). The food was not as we remembered it. My brioche French toast was clearly supermarket-industrial-white French toast. My wife’s zucchini and corn fritter was, in fact, a zucchini-free zone (presumably it had eloped with the brioche) and one cannot but sympathise with the chef who, not unreasonably, had assumed from the external charring...

Went there in June 2022 for lunch. Drinks ordered and delivered promptly. Entree and 2 mains ordered all delivered promptly at the same time. I have been to this venue multiple times before and would have given it a 5 star rating if the food delivery hasd of been staggered. I have spoken with the manager and staff training is being implemented. Will be returning shortly to dine.
Have visited for brunch, lunch and afternoon drinks at different times and haven't had a bad experience yet. Food is lovely, staff are great and the setting it's fabulous. Great opportunity to do a walk to Cremorne Point, enjoy the view of the harbour then return to the Rowers for a well earned refreshment.

Great venue by the water, food was good, unfortunately the servings seemed quite small for the price you are paying. Cheeseburger was juicy and full of flavour, with a soft bun. Fish of the day was fresh and cooked perfectly. Highlight would definitely be the view. Especially with the Outdoor seating
A pleasant surprise to find this exquisite gem on the water. Food was fantastic and the staff kind considerate. We were lucky enough to arrive during happy hour 4-6pm $6 tap beer house wine) and we were delighted to catch the live jazz band from 6-9pm, who were impressive. Thoroughly recommend !
The food is definitely not the best you'll ever have and they don't do any fancy cocktails and all but the staff is nice, the location is absolutely fantastic and there is something there that makes it easy and peaceful. Great place to chill during the day before or after a walk nearby
Was expecting a pub meal but everything was surprisingly delicious. My Caprese salad was one of the best ever. View is lovely and there are two separate levels. The top is more traditional whole the bottom more modern. Same yummy good on both levels.

Menu was much better than it was 6mths ago. Also its a shame theres no coffee or tea ever available after our meal. Pavlova Brownie deserts are delicious. Love the live music too.
Nice restaurant and bar. Good for lunch and dinner. A places we can bring family and friends. Enjoy meals with The harbor view.
