The local

Your table at the bay

De Palm sits in the De Palm Lifestyle Centre in Britannica Heights, with a deck that looks out over the sea and the harbour. Locals come for the quiz and karaoke nights, holidaymakers for a cold one in the sun, and everyone for the big games.

Inside there’s the bar and the blue-and-white dining room. Outside, a courtyard under shade sails and string lights that comes alive on music nights.
