About Rattle n Hum Palm Cove
Rattle n Hum Palm Cove is a casual bar and grill on Williams Esplanade, looking across to the beach. It opens from late morning every day, with a stone pizza oven, a grill menu of steaks, burgers and seafood, and a round bar in the middle of the room. The building is light and high-ceilinged, and heritage-listed paperbark trees grow up through the venue. Functions use several different areas, so the set-up can match the size and style of the group. The Vue de la Mer deck at the front sits under a tall pergola roof, with fairy-lit trees and a view of the ocean. It takes seated lunches and dinners for up to 35, as the licence allows only seated guests there. Inside, the Paperbark area wraps around a huge paperbark tree and has a pool table, folding glass doors and a big screen that can play a slideshow. It suits stand-up parties of up to 55 at high bars and stools, while the Esplanade Alley outside holds around 30 at barrels and stools. The main restaurant has low dining tables for seated events, and the functions team can suggest a floor plan. Platters, boards and pizzas are ordered a week ahead, and the venue keeps a guide to local suppliers for finishing touches. The venue hosts wedding receptions and drinks before or after a ceremony, Christmas parties, birthdays, hens and bucks nights and corporate groups.
