Cremorne is a North Shore suburb of Sydney, New South Wales situated between Mosman and Neutral Bay.

Shopping and commerce

Cremorne features an impressive and historic cinema, the Hayden Orpheum Picture Palace, which has been restored with old-fashioned decor and style, and features a Wurlitzer pipe-organ at selected film screenings.

Centred along Military Road, Cremorne hosts a supermarket, a large number of restaurants and various other shops, but its commercial zone is dwarfed by nearby Neutral Bay. A co-educational private school, SCECGS Redlands, has its campus to the West on Military Road.

A number of small companies lease office space in the commercial zone along Military Road, most notably Sharman Networks, the owners of the Kazaa peer-to-peer software, whose head office is situated here.

Transport

Sydney's North Shore lacks a train line, so all transport to and from Cremorne is by road or water.

Military Road connects Cremorne to Neutral Bay and the Sydney Harbour Bridge to the West, and to Mosman to the East.

Transport between Military Road and Sydney CBD is available via Sydney Buses routes L80, L85, 178, 180, 246 and 247.

The Sydney Ferries Mosman route runs past Cremorne's two wharves, Cremorne Point and Old Cremorne, to Sydney CBD's Circular Quay.
