Bistro Seymour
North Stradbroke Island
OUR RESTAURANT
Welcome to
Bistro Seymour
Situated at the beautiful North Stradbroke Island Golf Club, virtually the highest point on the second biggest sand island in the world.
From the dining room deck you have a bird’s eye vista overlooking Brown Lake, Moreton Bay and the big island (Australia) in the distance. On a clear day you can see the Glasshouse Mountains. At night the lights from the mainland might be considered a little romantic, and to see the lightening on a stormy night is something to behold. The Bistro is fully undercover regardless of the weather conditions.
It just so happens that my surname is Seymour, I thought about calling the Bistro ‘See More’ or some other connotation because of the aspect. I settled on my using my actual name because my late dad always envisaged me having my own place called ‘Chez Seymour’
Whilst I am a classically trained chef, my offerings will be far from traditional fare. My darling grandmother and mother were/are wonderful cooks and were my inspiration to becoming a chef and I will implement those treasured homestyle skills.
My irreplaceable Right Hand, Kristina Groombridge’ is the face of Bistro Seymour, a local Dunwich girl and mother of three wonderful children. Kristina, myself, and our team will do our utmost to ensure that you’re comfortable, relaxed and well catered for.
A menu and venue for all hopefully. Whether you're a golfer wanting a bite after a round, taking in the view with a snack, or a long lunch or dinner with friends. Or, why not plan to make a day of it! Catch the Water Taxi from Cleveland, a very pleasant 20 minute trip across the Bay and we can collect you in our shuttle bus. Just call or email to arrange.
We are fully licensed and we would be delighted to assist you with plans for any special occasions.
