Set right on the beach with views aplenty, Balmoral Cellars has been one of the suburb's legendary establishments since 1951. The current owner has run the shop for 20 years now, and he's a local expert on all things wine.

The shop is open daily and focuses on Australian labels — from malbecs and shiraz–grenache blends to classic merlots. This cellar doesn't just stock wines from well-known regions like Barossa Valley, Margaret River and Mudgee, either; it also offers drops from lesser-known spots like Coonawarra, SA and Buronga, NSW. Balmoral Cellars is a convenience store, too, so you can grab your booze and nibbles all in one go. Plus, you can nab free delivery on orders over $100, or free local delivery on all orders to Mosman, Cremorne and Neutral Bay.
