Design Statement
Located in Coogee and affectionately known by locals and regular patrons as “The Pav”, the Coogee Pavilion is the ultimate social spot in Sydney’s Eastern Suburbs. The complete redevelopment of what was originally an old aquarium has transformed Coogee Pavilion into a heaving beachside venue.
Designed as if it was once an eccentric botanist’s conservatory, the Rooftop houses four indoor and outdoor bars each with its own exotic flair. Choose to bask amongst overflowing greenery or take in the endless view across the Pacific Ocean from the terrace.
