International Executive Chef Tim Francis has fine tuned his culinary skills at an array of venues, ranging from The Gherkin, a private restaurant designed to cater for the likes of CEO’s of major financial companies, in London to Fishheads, a local well known restaurant in Byron Bay. Tim has working beside him an abundance of talented chefs working hard to provide a well rounded, sumptuous modern European menu. Ranging from a variety of fun tasty share plates to indulgent irresistible desserts, this menu will satisfy even the pickiest of appetites.
The produce-oriented menu is balanced by a dynamic winelist with over 20 local and imported wines available by the glass and extensive reserve list of hand-picked New World and European treasures.
The venue’s eclectic design brings together the unusual and unexpected, from unique pieces of vintage and contemporary designer furniture to industrial fans and polished original timber floorboards. Vintage sofas, wingbacks and high gloss white Peacock chairs from the 1960s and 1970s are here to be enjoyed. As is the acclaimed two-seater Veuve Clicquot Loveseat by New York designer Karim Rashid, available by reservation.
Babalou is four venues in one: our vinyl record library for enjoying analogue sound from our extensive library; bustling Main Room and Balcony and our Bathing Box Booths for the more private dining experience.
With our commitment to minimising our carbon footprint all four facets of the venue are separated by nothing but open space, allowing the circulation of fresh ocean breezes to move unhindered.
Our staff may be easygoing, but our standards are anything but. Please drop in for a real taste of contemporary coastal lifestyle.
