Going for Lunch or Dinner
Here are some local recommendations for food and fare.

The Hotel is open for lunch and dinner.
The restaurant menu includes some great pub classics as well as some gourmet specials and lighter options.
http://www.penneshawhotel.com.au/
The Eatalians team met in Sydney, from that very moment on they naturally have built a strong friendship but more so as brothers whom had been split from childhood. The bond in between them became unbreakable with a foundation of respect and frankness, sharing the same trace of tradition, perspective and dreams.
Their stories are simple, grew up in hard working families and spent their youths opening restaurants, hustled as ambassadors and consultants, all around the world.
The team have launched Eatalians in Penneshaw to embrace the land of Australia in their own Southern Italian way. They cook traditional Italian food along with other family friendly food.
