    Who knew what an amazing backdrop Wollongong Golf club offers! It was the perfect place for an almost beach wedding! On one of the few beautiful, sunny and warm Spring days we've had this season, a fabulous view of the islands, the massive waves crashing in the sand in the background... awesome...and then there was the reception upstairs in the club...food was excellent (well mine and hubbies were), very accommodating to weirdo allergies and preferencesπŸ™„, and full windows giving more than glimpses of the front 9, with island backdrop.... definitely on the recommend to all list... And, now keen to play a round!

    Love Wollongong Golf course. Proper links style course right on the beach. It was a bit dry when we played at Xmas( 2019), but Im sure the creeks and dams will be full of water now. Looking forward to playing there again in a few weeks. Friendly staff, easy parking and close to everything if you make a weekend of it.

    This is well located, had great staff. But. The rooms are getting tired and that doesn't seem to be reflected in the price. However the rooms were big and spacious and we all fit in. There did appear to be plumbing issues aplenty whole we were there (our shower didn't drain and flooded the room)

    I ordered a cheese burger meal from the bistro for $24, and then received the meal which was less appetising then a quarter pounder meal at MacDonalds which I can by for $13 and at least I get a drink. Poor meal they need to improve burgers for the cost you pay.

    Good location, nice club house, poorly maintained. Distance yardage markers not coloured. No golf hole signs. No yardage markers in centre of the green. No distance mark on pop up sprinkler head.

    Updated again. A better experience today. Fish and chips were good. Updated review 8 mths ago. Very enjoyable lunch or dinner location. I wish the chef would bring back the Maple BBQ Beef Brisket w/ House Made Corn Bread & Slaw for $24.00.

    Ordered a barramundi fillet with salad and chips. What turned up on my plate was a surprise. I got all of the above plus a little green grub in the salad. Returned the meal and requested no salad but they did not listen and got the salad so it went back again and finally got the fish and chips. So check your salad.

    Nice venue and views.. food menu very mediocre - no kids options on menu.. some waitstaff were very short and rude others were lovely...

  • 5/5 Tony C. 1 year ago on Google
    The golf course is in excellent condition. The 19th is a great place to sit and have a cool drink!

  • 1/5 Caairojo G. 1 year ago on Google
    It was my first time eating at the club tonight, and I can sum it up in two words....overpriced and mediocre! I'm just glad I didn't order the fish & chips (it was served on a piece of paper on top of the plate), or the $24 cheeseburger (it was served in a plastic basket??). Very poor for the venue it's trying to pass it self off as.

    It's a club, so...

    We have played here socially a few years ago and enjoyed it. But doubt we will bother coming back again after today. We are experienced players who often play in competition. It was a comp day here and we were 1st 4 off after the comp. Unfortunately we are not used to players who just walk onto your fairway to take their shot, underestimating what we could drive. And were quite rude about it. The comp was slow and at 15 2 of our party gave up. We then waited more than 5 minutes for players in front to find a ball then give up to take another tee shot. As they had lost a hole thought we should have been called through. Did 16 and thought we might as well finish it was a very windy day too. Apparently we were complained about cutting through though we drove straight off to give up and were told there are comps every day so to expect the same. It's a shame as it is an unusual course along the sea but not worth the trouble in my opinion.

    Lovely food with great views. Good value.

  • 4/5 Mark W. 4 years ago on Google
    Didn't appreciate having to show my ID only to be contacted by Google the very next day to review the place. My suggestion is the Chicken Carsar Salad entree/main. Quite spacious and nice views.

  • 4/5 Jenny and Allan W. 1 year ago on Google
    Bar service quick. Food more bistro standard, salad & chips acceptable only. Menu reasonable and pricing $22 - $40. Coffee and desserts good.

    After seeing an ad on IG for "The 19th Hole" restaurant we decided to go and look. The view was outstanding! Overlooking the golf course with the sea as a backdrop. Just wow! The table was excellent, right next to the window. The blonde girl that showed us our table gave us a choice of two, well done, compared to just telling where to sit, thank you. I will say that she certainly can try to crack a bit of a welcoming smile. She made you feel as if to say 'so what are you here for?'. She could take your experience up a whole notch. The young man was very helpful and friendly. The brisket burger was just excellent, I could suggest just a tad less hot sauce to get the full flavour of the excellent brisket. The cheese burger was also excellent! Real hand made Patty. The Chip were extra crispy and perfectly fried. A definite revisit is on the books. Maybe the girl will be having a better day.

    Nice place, on the night we went it was not crowded but it was busy. Service was good, as was the food.

  • 3/5 Gary G. 9 months ago on Google
    Enjoyed playing this links style golf course. The course is located adjacent to Wollongong beaches with several holes providing scenic backdrop views of the ocean. A number of holes included water hazards that provided challenges, and when combined with raised greens and coastal breezes, it just adds to everyone's enjoyment. The kikuyu fairways were in good condition, as were the greens that rolled fast and true. The practice facilities consisted of a putting green and warm-up nets. The pro shop carried all your golfing essentials. The staff were very professional and friendly. I look forward to playing this course again in the future.

    Great service, generous serving size, and reasonable price. Outlook over golf course spectacular, what's not to love.

  • 5/5 Scott R. 6 months ago on Google
    Golf course in great condition. Haven't played it for nearly 30 years, but loving the new layout. Gives a chance to score all over the course. Might now rate as my favourite course in the Illawarra.

  • 4/5 Amy J. 5 months ago on Google
    We haven't stayed within the accommodation as we are local and, therefore we cannot comment on the rooms, but we enjoy coming here for a late afternoon bevvy and sitting outside soaking in the scenery.

  • 3/5 Margaret F. 3 years ago on Google
    Lovely location and ambience. A little disappointed my friends and I couldn't go upstairs, as we aren't members. We were there to celebrate birthdays and cake. Need to amalgamate now so I become a member through my other club.

  • 5/5 staelens15 4 years ago on Google
    Best before 10am

  • 4/5 Rebecca P. 4 years ago on Google
    This is the second meal we have had here and both were pretty underwhelming. This time, we ordered rosemary & sea salt flatbread with hummus - definately wasn't flatbread and the "smear of hummus was disappointing, the crumbed calamari with wasabi mayo - calamari was tender but crumb wasn't very crispy and fell off the calamari, the slow cooked beef "cheeks" with Paris mash - although the single beef "cheek" we got was tender and didn't need a knife, the Paris mash was very lumpy and undercooked. The meals were really nicely presented. The staff seemed more interested in a function being set up next door in the other room.
