The Peninsula Beer Garden is one of the Mornington Peninsula’s premier destinations for live music and great food and drinks. You come in alongside the Eagle Ridge Golf Course, which makes for some stunning views over the sweeping greens and some equally impressive architecture as you enter to find an atmosphere that’s laid-back and welcoming.

Perfect for both indoor and outdoor experiences, the large open areas at the back are ideal for the children to run around as you relax with local craft beers, beer paddles and wines, cool cocktails with locally distilled spirits, and of course great bar food. You’ll find all the favourites like pizza, parmas, tapas, fish and chips, and a menu for the little ones. The meal deals that run all day on Thursday and Friday and from 5.30pm on Saturday are excellent value at only $25, with kids under 12 eating for free.

The inside dining area is cosy and bright, with a choice of comfy couches, quiet corners and picturesque views, or you can be a bit closer to the live action and enjoy the musical vibe as you dine. The Velvet Lounge is a separate area and hosts top bands from the region and visiting performers from all around Australia. Check the gig guide for your favourite musos or to discover something new. Tribute bands, stand-up comedy and festivals are sprinkled throughout the year as well.

Whether you’re looking a family-friendly place for a Sunday session, a cool place for a Friday happy hour or just a relaxing place to grab a bite and hear some tunes, the Peninsula Beer Garden is bound to put you in a feel-good kind of mood.

Opening hours: Thursday 11.30am-6pm; Friday-Saturday 11.30am-8.30pm; Sunday 11.30am-6pm
