Dress Code & RSA Policy

Coolangatta Hotel provides a comfortable environment where patrons are able to enjoy their surroundings without disruption from others, who may be inappropriately dressed, or behave in an unacceptable manner. We believe that individuals have the right to choose to consume alcohol in licensed venues as a form of social activity. We have a responsibility to deliver best practice in terms of our service of alcohol and to set a positive example to our customers and to other licensees.

To ensure patron compliance with these principles, we actively participate in local liquor accords, forums, appropriate industry bodies standards and have been set for dress reguilations and behaviour standards.

To prevent underage drinking in our venue we require valid proof of age to be presented by young adults on our premises. Whether its day or night, patrons are advised to carry valid photo ID with them whilst on the premises and the venue is unable to accept and expired or damaged ID.
