Meet Adam Rust, the man behind the creation of Fish Faces menu.
Adam, ex Harbord Hotel and 12-Micron grew up in the Northern Beaches and is entrenched in the local community. Through a love of surfing, Adam has a passion of capturing ocean flavours and thoughtfully delivering them on a plate.
Adams culinary goal is to provide the freshest of seafood in the freshest of spaces.
Our menu is extensive and aimed to be enjoyed either al fresco in the sunshine and fresh air, or inside within our spacious and vibrant interior - whatever you choose we look forward to providing for your enjoyment fresh and vibrant flavours from the sea.
For our gluten-free and coeliac friends we have lots of choice for you. We take cross-contamination seriously. That's why we don't fry anything that's not gluten-free in our deep fryers. So you can enjoy your gluten-free fish and chips without any worries!
You can easily identify gluten-free options on our menu by the 'gf' designation, ensuring a worry-free dining experience.
Aimed to match the delicacy of our cuisine and always served with a smile, our drinks menu spans both local and abroad offerings so as to provide a myriad of refreshment choices when dining with us.
If you would like to bring your own personalised cake, please note that a cakeage fee of $5 per person will apply.

Manly Observer - "The new restaurant provides a space that seems to cover it all – perfect for a date, a family catch up, a friends night out, a lunch meeting, and even our young family were well accommodated with enough room between tables for a pram. But the food is a great offering as well; it’s not just a pretty face.." - Read the full article here
Eat Drink Play - “Balgowlah’s Fish Face, now plating exquisitely prepared simple seafood just a stone’s throw from Manly beach. To plate the ocean, you must know the ocean, which is probably why Executive Chef Adam Rust’s menu is proving to be such a huge hit” - Read the full article here
