A place full of history and heritage

One of Sydney’s oldest sports clubs and harbour destinations, Mosman Rowers reopened in March 2019, following the generous support of loyal members and the local community. The much-loved local institution since 1911 welcomes wet bums, sandy feet and paws to our special place in Mosman - a community hub for water-based activities such as paddling and kayaking as well as social events & more.

The Club offers a unique dining experience spanning breakfast, lunch, dinner and everything in between. The Rowers Gallery Cafe, located on the lower level, offers all cafe classics, as well as drinks & dinner through summer. The heritage Rowers Bar on entry offers lunch and dinner, as well as all of the Rowers staples including weekly trivia, meat raffles, live sports and more. The members’ Gallery upstairs offers a private and intimate space for community events and functions.

The combination of a stunning location in Mosman Bay, rich character and heritage of the clubhouse, and warm and friendly culture make Mosman Rowers a community hub for all.
