The rich Mediterranean atmosphere of Classic Club’s palatial clubhouse flows from wine-themed oil paintings right into Bellatrix restaurant and wine bar.
Open seasonally for lunch and dinner, the restaurant serves an approachable upscale menu with options ranging from traditional salads, sandwiches, and prime steaks to more eclectic and adventurous fare. The extensive wine list has been recognized by Wine Spectator with the Best of Award of Excellence for its third year.
Two decades ago, executive chef Gerard Brunett joined the Troon Golf family, the entity that manages Classic Club and other premier courses around the globe. He arrived at Bellatrix by way of renowned properties such as Pebble Beach Resorts and, notably, was invited to prepare a meal at the prestigious James Beard House in New York.
Bellatrix boasts an indoor-outdoor feel with a fully enclosed private garden and a dining terrace that overlooks the championship golf course.
The restaurant, clubhouse, ballrooms, and outdoor event spaces are available for weddings, meetings, and other group events.
