Housed in the historic and iconic once a church, turned library, turned restaurant, 1908 Cronulla is a seaside gem that is full of continental flavours and charm. Shaped by the coastal flavours of cuisines from across the world, diners are taken on a culinary journey from the Caribbean to Spain, India and back to homegrown Aussie soil. The head chef is a fan of the flame and mostly uses BBQ grilling and guéridon flambé methods to create that smoky, charred effect. Drop by for casual drinks at the bar or settle in for friendly feed, 1908 Cronulla is a true taste of the Australian seaside food culture.

At the turn of the XXth century, the Illawara train line revived the remote seaside gem of Cronulla & put it on the map. Surrounded by glittering waters & magnificent sand dunes, Cronulla started to attract settlers, beach lovers & Sydney-siders. A Methodist church was erected circa 1908, where the restaurant now stands. It went on to be the Shire library in the 1970’s, then The Old Library Restaurant in 2011, & now 1908 Cronulla Social Restaurant & Cocktail Bar.

Impressed by the great bones of the building, the tall ceilings, the exposed beams & original timber lining, award-winning interior designers Guthrie & Hecker transformed the venue into its current incarnation, cleverly designing the space with a connection to both the seaside location & the original architecture, whilst adding new elements such as the impressive central bar. Working within the voluminous spaces, they created a sense of intimacy & gathering through creating a series of rooms within rooms & spaces within spaces. Custom furniture pieces & a natural palette of oak, linen, white timber & blackened steel contribute to the relaxed & somewhat domestic space that is 1908.
