About us

Escape the bustle of the city and jump on a ferry to Cockatoo Overboard located on Cockatoo Island in the middle of Sydney Harbour.

Just a short stroll from the ferry wharf, Cockatoo Overboard offer diners an opportunity to enjoy fresh and seasonal breakfast/brunch, lunch and dinner as well as a selection of hot and cold beverages, including an extensive wine and beer list.

Diners can expect a menu with a modern twist with European influences sneaking in. We blend the natural beauty of the great outdoors with simple, rustic charm, our island eatery is an all-in-one café, bar, restaurant, garden and event hub. The Space has become a popular place for Sydneysiders and a must-see destination for visitors to Sydney.

Our hospitality experience has spanned for over 40 years in Adelaide and now in Sydney. We have a popular catering and event business, Societe Catering, that has been a focus on Cockatoo Island for over a decade.

What an absolutely AMAZING place - The beautiful lady that runs the cafe and her gorgeous daughter took the most beautiful care of us and I plan on going back regularly. The food is superb, the most beautiful and friendly staff, and an incredible view! I have been looking at this island for so many years and boy am I glad we decided to take the trip to this place for lunch before exploring the rest of the island.

Best location for coffee in Sydney. During the week the venue is quiet and peaceful, perfect for taking in the magnificent harbour view and enjoying a coffee. If you need to heal and recharge this is the place for you.

You can't do better for location. You'll find all the menu scrumptious. And having friendly staff tops off a great lunch.
