Good questions

Not at all — the "Social Club" is just how we like to do things: relaxed, social and made for sharing. Everyone's welcome.

Bookings aren't open yet. Keep an eye on catalinasocialclub.co.nz — we'll announce as soon as they are.

We're opening on 5 December 2026. We'd love to see you there.

Every booking at Catalina is for two hours — plenty of time to settle in, share a few plates and catch the view.

Some tables are held for walk-ins, but booking is strongly recommended for groups of three or more and on weekends.

Mediterranean-inspired share plates with Asian and Latin American twists — think crispy nori with fish tartare, ceviche and oysters, sharing plates, pasta and seafood rice. The menu is still a draft until opening.

We'll have options for different dietaries and our team is happy to talk you through them. We can't guarantee zero cross-contamination, so please tell us about any allergy before you order.

We use QR-code ordering, so you order from the table at your own pace and can keep adding dishes and drinks. Our team brings everything out to you and is always happy to help or recommend something.

Cocktails on tap, house cocktails, a good wine and Champagne list, cold beer and plenty of non-alcoholic options.

Absolutely — families are a big part of Catalina, and there's a $15 kids' menu with a main, a drink and a dessert. If you need a highchair or space for a pram, let us know and we'll check for you.

Yes — there's a lift to our first-floor venue. There's also an accessible toilet. If you need anything else, let us know and we'll sort it.

43 Launch Road, Catalina Bay, Hobsonville Point — on the first floor above the Marine Centre. There's a lift up, and free parking on the street and in the gravel car park on Launch Road.

Our Clubroom seats up to 38 and is perfect for private dining; with the dining area beside it we can look after up to 60. It's also our community room, so the clubs based in the Marine Centre get priority. Send us your date and numbers and we'll check what's possible.

The Terrace sits right on the shoreline with panoramic views across Catalina Bay. It seats 108, and we can split it into two or three sections — the largest takes up to 48. Most of the tables are uncovered, so it does depend on the weather.

The Terrace is a beautiful spot for both. Because most of it is uncovered, we'd talk through your date, numbers, setup and a weather plan together before confirming anything.

Just two — a surcharge of up to three percent on credit card, payWave and online QR payments, and a fifteen percent surcharge on public holidays. There's no other service or booking fee.

Gift vouchers are coming soon — we'll let you know as soon as they're available.

No BYO alcohol, but you're welcome to bring a celebration cake — there's no cakeage fee.
