Really great service from all the staff. Host was able to find us a spot outside with a dog. Waiter was very attentive and brought over dog treats. Bar tenders very friendly and helpful. Live music was wonderful. Really nice vibes. Pizzas were outstanding.
J. W.
Service was excellent, the kitchen staff and bar staff and waitresses were very friendly and helpful, Chicken Schnitzel with garlic butter, chips and salad was first class. View from the open window was perfect, trees parkland, sound of the ocean. And the cutest little birds who are very shy, but also very brave.
N. J.
We stumbled across the Apollo Hotel. It was situated right in front of the Apollo Summer Carnival. We loved the ambiance and the food was very delicious too. We were impressed with the service- it made all the difference. Only thing was, we wish there were more food options but otherwise we would recommend as a stop at Apollo Bay for sure.
V. P.
Fabulous pub on Main Street with fantastic views of Apollo Bay. Huge spaces in side and out on front deck. Beer Gardens restaurant/bistro. We were there for a few drinks and a bit of people watching the front deck was perfect. Lots of tap local beers to choose from. staff happy and helpful a very pleasant afternoon Recommend
M. V.
Cool pub in town, staff are friendly and the place overall is nice. Quite a young crowd around but enjoyable atmosphere. I didn't give the 5th star because the kitchen closes waaaay too early considering how much people keep drinking from 8pm onwards. When I asked, the owner said 'we open from 10am to 8pm 7 days a week'. I'd say: maybe you need to get priorities right and either feed the early crowd (ie no one is going for breakfast to a pub) or the later crowd (ie literally the entire town). But in general it's a good spot for a beer and an early 😉 nibble.
J. S.
Love it! We stayed at a seaview room, the view is awesome, you can see sunrise in the room, or simply across the street to the beach.
It is 'sparkling' clean and plus it has a spa bathtub!
Everything is perfect and would definitely stay here again when visiting Apollo bay.

Everyone is getting out this November in Victoria, and this was a great place to have a feed on a sunny day. Just pay the extra dollar and get the cheesiest garlic bread in town. The desserts were a highly recommended as they were delicious just to look at. All the meals were super fast, that gave plenty of time to enjoy a few local beers on tap.
W. M.
Saturday night called in for a meal, front office staff wonderful, waiting staff couldn't be more pleasant and kitchen went out of the way to please. Food was great, beer cold and excellent seating made for a memorable evening.
S. L.
We had lunch here on the way along the Great Ocean Rd.
This place is fantastic and very reasonably priced.
We got 2 x bowls of wedges, kids chicken tenders meal, hawaiian pizza, garden salad and a jug of soft drink for ~$70.
All food was waited to us quite quickly by bistro standards and was of a high quality.
The outside area at the front is great, just across from the ocean which provides a great refreshing breeze. Has a big outdoor TV as well which was showing the V8 Supercars.
We're thinking about doing a trip specifically to Apollo Bay instead of passing through and have every intention of returning to this venue.
f. p.
I’ve visited many restaurants around Victoria, however this is a very convenient hotel and experience! Me and my family had a extremely warm welcoming service, and the food was very well made cooked and had extraordinary taste ✅ We had a sensational visit and even though we live far away from Apollo bay I’ll definitely be coming back! 😁
J. S.
We came for a quick beer after my partner finished the GOR Ultramarathon last year.
The place was super packed, but everyone was cheering for anyone who participated in the race.. so the sense of joy was electrifying!
C. K.
Just a really solid pub. Great size meals, fast service, probably good value, I dunno, the Mrs picked up the tab.
Try the Texas Wings, bloody rippers.
The Pork Ribs was a huge feed. Somehow I finished it, they aint mucking around.
Great selection of beer. Great atmosphere. Wasnt my first rodeo, wont be the last.
4.5 Stars.
C. E.
I've been going to this pub on and off for 50+ years and it's still the best place in town. Food is great and the team all really friendly and helpful. We travelled 3 hours to get there yesterday and I'd do the same again in a heartbeat 💓. When you're there checkout the famous mirror painting of the old man with the pipe. It's been part of the decor ever since I can remember. And there must be a heap of stories associated with it.
R. J.
Went for drinks and probably didn't need to. Totally get it is the quiet season but why have a cocktail night advertised when most of them are unavailable. I didn't have any food and would be willing to try but not a drinking destination.
S.
Gorgeous view, lovely interior, lively environment and lovely customer service.
The food was bland and didn't have much flavour. The sizes were large but when the food isn't that great it doesn't make the overall experience special. Vegetarian options were bland.
M. d.
Fantastic place for a meal and some delish cocktails. Perfectly cooked steak. Friendly wait-staff!
N. D.
Great feed, customer service at fair prices. Nice to see Ash Barty win the open here and nice to hear the patrons cheering her on!
Onya apollo bay hotel

Spent a fun filled NYE here! Staff were really nice and the food was delicious! Great location and I really liked all the different room spaces 😁 And DJ Ramdaddy was awesome!
L. D. B.
Was great food and I highly recommend to people looking to have ribs, I had the smokey bbq full rack of ribs and it tasted amazing and was good value for money. $36!
B. P.
Good meal. Friendly service. Nice spot for lunch after a ride
A. G.
Excellent service from Jack, Oliver, and Jason. Great recommendations of local stuff and current cocktails, plus great banter!
A. L.
Food was served very promptly. Service was good. Seated outside and weather was perfect! Great effort!!
d. r.
Always a good place to stop for a meal or a drink. The staff are great and a good selection meals. They have a good range of local beers.
O. B.
"Sticky BBQ pork ribs" is the best! Be ready for huge portion of delicious food.
W. B.
We rode our Harleys around the coast to lunch at this location. Very good service and food. Friendly staff make you keep coming back.
J. H.
Does not sell Champaign by the glass.
Crispy skinned salmon was soggy skinned.
I. M.
Awsome service with a friendly bar man
Had a band playing which were awsome
Had a good night out with my man & met a young lady whom were on her own, asked her to join us, we chatted & had a good night altogether...plus we're a friendly bunch and this pub Had that Awsome vibe
L. D.
What a great pub, lots of different rooms, beer garden, bistro, front bar, outdoor views, bottle shop, great meals.
M. F.
We were treated fantasic with meal and service ..food was absolutely 💯 staff were just fantasic ..if you are heading out for a Anniversary or for just great service this is your place ..thanks to all staff for making it a night to remember
M. A.
Great meals, friendly service and icy cold beer. Big thumbs up from me 👍
B. J.
Great location. We had a recent holiday in Apollo Bay and this pub was a short walk from where we stayed in Moore Street. It is dog friendly and the staff doted over the two pooches our group had (on leads) with us. We remarked every day how friendly every staff member was. The friendly service was so consistent that that could not have been happening by chance. There is a great culture there amongst the staff and kudos to the managers and team members who make the customer experience extra special. The beer choices are excellent. The food is great and the view overlooking the foreshore and beach makes for a perfect spot to visit for a drink and/or meal. Highly recommended.
H. S.
Everything was perfect. The staff were lovely. The lady waiter, Pam, was so friendly and the food was delicious as well. They made a great night for us and they deserve 5 stars. Despite our cheater and disappointing accommodation, Seafarers getaway that advertise something and give you something else and I DO NOT recommend them at all, this restaurant is highly recommended.
E. G.
Lovely staff, great environment , good accommodation and food.
D. D.
Great pub food and a friendly atmosphere. The staff were terrific and very helpful. Meals were ordered and delivered in a timely manner. Love the upsize wine glass. Thank you for a relaxed and well fed end to a happy day.
K. P.
Lovely location and pub! Friendly staff. Nice food.
Z. S.
Pam our lovely waitress for the evening catered to every need and also going above and beyond for my jacket which unfortunately had a run in with some buffalo sauce. It was so nice and refreshing to see such a kind and caring person who was happy to help in our time of need.
The surf and turf didn’t reflect the price we paid for however, barramundi and Texas hot wings were good.
Thank you Pam for taking care of us❤️.
M. M.
The food and service here was absolutely fantastic! Very friendly and fast. And our Bartender, Flynn, went above and beyond to make our custom order favourite drinks to perfection! (Passion-Fruit Mojito and Old Fashioned)👌🏼 Best experience, and a MUST visit restaurant for Apollo Bay! My wife and I highly recommend!
C. M.
Great ambience and fast service. Variety of meals suited for the whole family. Kids menu better than norm. Fast service and a fabulous warm fire, we went back a second time on our short stay 👍
K. S.
Fast service with quality meals. We have eaten here twice now on our 5 day stay and each meal has been just as good as the last. Also if you're looking for a great drink, the bar man, Flynn, is a perfectionist with his mixology and beyond good customer service. All in all, if you're looking for a family friendly night out or a date night by the sea, this place is definitely worth visiting.
S. K.
Only been here once for a few beverage, they had live music and the staff was friendly, great atmosphere, always a big fan of the high stool tables
J. T.
Enjoyed dinner here. Staff were friendly and welcoming, service was prompt. Beautiful pub meals. Nice seating outside overlooking the foreshore reserve. Dog friendly seating available. Lots of gluten free options. Recommended.
D. K.
Basic pub grub, but overpriced in that category. Meals looked good, but lacked flavour. Portions were fairly generous. Worst pepper corn sauce I've ever had. It was literally a very bland gravy with some peppercorns in it. My Sons' burgers looked great but tasted of very little.
TV's everywhere. Very loud covers duo blaring outside.
And just to top it off, 15% 'surcharge' for public holiday weekend meals.
Definitely a thumbs down from our 10 person dining group.
A.
Nice place, helpful staff and great meals
M. A.
Can't complain, good food, great position and beer 🍻
C. D.
Meal and service was great. But in this day and age of a cash less society to pay a credit card surcharge is annoying. Included the fee just like everyone else.
B. b.
Nice steak but vegetables were under cooked
G. M.
Nice place
The menu has a variety of options and the food is good
R. H.
Great Country Pub with tasty food, views & good service
J. C.
Friendly and helpful staff. Quick service. Good food. Great beer - local and not so local. Highly recommended. You can book ahead for indoor seating or take a gamble on the outdoor seating on the terrace, which cannot be reserved.
R. O.
Friendly staff, good food and atmosphere .
Recommend and will be back.
A. F.
Went for dinner and it was amazing,
The service was great and they were so quick with our meals we didn’t have to wait long at all.
G. T.
The food and staff were wonderful. Great view from the bench of the balcony.
B. G.
Great location. Staff were so friendly. Meals were generously portioned (omg the beef roast was HUGE). Lovely decor. Excellent music playlist. Thanks for a great dinner after a long day doing the Great Ocean Road drive.
P. P.
Friendly service, and good pub food at a reasonable price.
S. K.
Amazing experience. Fantastic food and professional staff.
Pam is so kind, polite and warm. She is so supportive and respectful to the customers.
Thank you pooneh and thanks to Apollo Bay Hotels management.
I do recommend this place to everyone.
J. S.
The staff are very friendly. The food is amazing. So if you're in the Apollo Bay area, do yourself a favour and enjoy a bit of a relaxing time. Enjoy some really amazing views and an awesome meal
M. J.
Service excellent! Pumpkin and zucchini pesto fettuccine rocks (with chicken) 🥰
G. H.
Great service and food, put this place on your "must visit" list
A. G.
Staff were lovely. Genuinely nice and cheery. I enjoyed my meal and the cocktail I order was delicious. My 11 month old enjoyed her creamy mushroom pasta. They have done an awesome job accommodating the necessary measures for covid19 as well. The venue still feels very comfy and relaxed.
J. M.
Great food best prices for the area and the staff so helpful 😃😃
T. T.
Happy Hour prices of the Stone and Wood pacific ale were fantastic. $6 a schooner happy days. The Texas hot wings were a solid 8/10 with a mediocre ranch sauce that wasn’t very ranchy. Followed by our mains, a delicious parma, classic pub parma, couldn’t fault it. However the chefs interpretation of the cooking of a steak was very rare. I do recommend the mushroom sauce and the salad dressing was pleasant. I would give another half a star if it had the option.
S. K.
Nice hotel. Very expansive. Have a great little wood fire in winter in the bar area. Still do pizzas after most other places in the area have shut kitchens.
Have Feral Hop Hog on tap if you like IPAs like me.
B. L.
As regards the meals, I suggest 1. change your oil, and 2. get some help on the roast. That said, we thought your staff were very nice and the ambience was very warm and comfortable. Service and efficiency were high. We had calimari and roast beef, both need work. Im sure you can do it. Good luck
S. F.
Very impressed by the dinner I had here. The staff were friendly and welcoming of my dog, the views from the deck were lovely and the steak was perfectly cooked. The knowledgable bar staff were fantastic as well.
R. S.
Ribs spot on, pramas on point and good prices.
Definitely will stop by again.
J. B.
A busy spot, so book ahead. But a great view from the balcony. Dillon the host was very accommodating and helped us with a great table.
Common pub food, good size meals at reasonable prices.
The place gets busy and the lines for the bar or ordering food can be frustrating. So consider going outside of peak times.
D. A.
We all had pizzas, tastes great, chicken tikka was the stand out, highly reccomend it. Truffle fries were better than the chips (not that the chips were bad). Good customer service from the staff and quick delivery of food from the kitchen.
g. m.
Live entertainment with friendly staff along with ample space for seating and dancing
B. L.
the staff were lovely and the burger was delicious but the chips were cold when they arrived and they just chucked them in the fryer to heat them up making them very thick and stale tasting. also quite a shame to charge higher prices with no table service
A. W.
Great food! We had our dinner here on a Thursday night. The staff are super friendly and attentive and the food was terrific!
N. H.
Super friendly staff and great cocktails
P. N.
Amazing food and the staff here were extremely welcoming and accommodating to us.Overall an amazing place that I would recommend anyone who’s in the area checks out, especially for dinner and drinks!!!
R. W.
Friendly welcome on entry, Covid safe expectations explained in a friendly manner. Service and food was spot on and we had a great experience having lunch and a few bets on the races. Would highly recommend a visit to the Apollo Bay Hotel.
J. V. D. L.
Very accommodating considering current restrictions..great pub food
S. V.
The food tasted good but it was very quick as other commented. 5 min for a well done steak!? To be served to the table . Waitresses were in a hurry to clear us out even on a Friday evening where we wanted to have a relaxed dinner. Lamb shanks were well cooked and the quantity of the food was satisfying!
S.
A lovely place to relax and enjoy a beer, the setting and views were great. We only stopped for a quick break but ended up staying longer than anticipated due to the ambience and pleasant service from Michelle , she is a credit to the hotel. Her smile & friendly manner made our time there very enjoyable. A well run establishment which has all you could ask for, a good bar and restaurant. Well worth stopping for a drink and meal.
J. F.
Came for a lunch while on a road trip. Staff were amazing and friendly, bathrooms were clean and new, ambience was warm and cheery, and food was well-presented and delicious. If you are passing through Apollo Bay and need food, this is the place to go. 5/5.
R. G.
Great spot for dinner and drinks along the Apollo Bay foreshore.
D. P.
Staff are great, drinks and food are delivered quicky. Sack the chef(s).
I recommend you go there for a drink it will be very enjoyable sitting in one of the many areas they have or outside watching the Great Ocean Rd.
The food was terrible.
Eye fillet steak , medium rare.
It arrived in two pieces, always a huge no-no.
One piece medium rare and the other well done.
Salad was warm. Chips cold
Wife's salmon meal was worse.
In short, good pub but bad food.
A. A.
A grwat place to dine. The chicken pizza was delicious. Staff friendly and plenty of atmosphere inside Bistro especially with the fire going.
N. T.
Great location, nice staff.
Do not ever go here for the pizza, very underwhelming.
However the Parma’s here are amazing!
You win some you lose some.
S. B.
Delicious Pork Ribs. They don't serve any mocktails, but made an exception as it was our 10th wedding anniversary and took an effort to make virgin Mojito - 5 stars for cust serv.
Recommend making reservations in a busy season.
B. A. H.
Excellent service by a very welcoming and hospitable folks. Flynn is such an amazing and generous lad... nothing was too much for him.. Large variety of drinks and delicious food.
k. m.
As Hotels go, this would be one of the better one's. Wonderful staff excellent food. And they have Guiness on tap.
A. P.
Went in at night after a trip to the 12 apostles.
(Didn't check what time they closed)
Apparently it's 2 minutes before they close the kitchen.
To my surprise the staff still welcomed us warmly and everything was good!
Service was very friendly and professional, even though we're in the "last order" group, they still check on us from time to time.
Food was great too!
The pork fennel bangers and mash was superb! Steak (medium) was better than I expected. And a "jug" of lemonade was served in a fancy/giant coke bottle.
The only exception is the kid's cheesy nachos: it's not what I expected of a nachos but call it any other name I'll still eat them.
We enjoyed our dinner very much, thank you :)
K. S.
Great meal well done 👍😎
A. b.
Great atmosphere, most meals decent except for surf and turf, average cut for the price
D. T.
They hosted a rum weekend and they didn't even know how to make piña coladas... shame.
After following the recipe they kinda did it... "Kinda" actually was more like pineapple juice and rum with a coconut cream TSP.
There was this bartender older than the rest of the crew, he really knows what he is doing 🙌
Pizza was good.
Espresso martini was good too.
t. b.
Nice place and seaside view, friendly staff. Pizza crust is hard and dry, not great. Quality ingredients for mains, but served in the style of cheap RSL food, sadly the cooking lets the ingredients down. Chips were brown and tasted of old oil. Id be very satisfied if these meals were half the price, these dishes would make good $15 pub feeds, but dont live up to the $30+ price tag.
S. K.
Firstly a massive thank you to Richard for your amazing customer service making our stay a very memorable experience.I would also like to thank all the staff at the restaurant for a truely wonderful evening (hats off to the chef ) a true 5/5 dinner not a fault could be made this chef speaks through their food. it captivates and entrances you begging for more.The serving size is quite generous yet you can see the perfect care and time taken with these meals.Just as one course was finishing the next was ready waiting to tantalise your tastebuds.You will only be left completely satisfied and dreaming of your next dinner at this wonderful family friendly establishment
A massive thank you from Steven and Mirrani
A.
Stayed in Apollo Bay for nearly 2 weeks in March this year and having had some bad experiences at this pub in the past was reluctant to visit again but my daughter suggested we try again. What a surprise. The bistro has had a bit of a make over which has lifted the place and the food is now really good. We ended up eating here twice during our stay and left happy both times even though the drink prices are a little exy. Try the pizza and sit in the bar area with live music. Noisy but exciting.
V. B.
Much better than your average pub. Had a lunch: lawns were tender and well presented, and this value. The steak had real flavour! And the service was attentive and friendly. You can't beat the foreshore view. They also have a very this range of beers.
T. B.
Good food in the bistro, with lots of space and a friendly atmosphere. Basic selection of food at the bar, but good quality. Decent selection of beers on tap, as well as takeaway booze sales and a motel. It's a quality holiday town pub. Gets very busy at peak times, and is quiet and relaxed in off peak times.
D. C.
Service was fantastic. We got seated at 7pm and received our ordered garlic bread within minutes. Our mains arrived around 10mins later. We were finished by 7:30pm.
My Kobe steak was cooked to perfection with very nice sides included. The staff were very helpful and friendly.
Highly recommended!
M. M.
The pork ribs were to die for! Recommended
D. S.
Food is great, just a bit expensive.
B. L.
We ate here sat night, it was absolutely amazing.
Staff were super friendly and meals were fantastic. Some of the best cocktails we've ever had!
D. F.
My wife and I attended with our two small children, and had a lovely time. The menu is standard pub fair, well presented, and the staff were helpful. Nothing that stands out, but I'd recommend it for a pleasant evening of outdoor dining (if the weather is fine), over looking the beach. Otherwise there are plenty of indoor tables.
B. B.
Great food. We had the oysters and prawn dishes and they were delicious. The only thing which stopped it from being five star was having to go to two separate sides of the venue to order your food and drinks. No table service offered apart from delivery of food. Would expect better service for the price of food and drink.
P. J.
The Apollo Bay Hotel is a great relaxed upper market pub. Pleasant, friendly approachable staff that are willing to help and offer any assistance when needed.
The saffron beer battered fish n chips were amazing. Both my wife and i ordered it and greatly enjoyed it, the serving size was great, it came out quickly and the chips an salad were fresh and crisp.
The venue is clean and tidy and the music is loud enough to enjoy the music and have a normal speaking volume conversation.
J. D.
One of the best hotels on the Great Ocean road. The staff are very nice and friendly offering an awesome service. Great food, menu is huge and have different dishes, mostly Italian. Pizza is amazing and you must try it. Excellent beer, large variety on the tap. Alcohol menu is also great, pretty much got everything. A must try and highly recommend.
C. F.
Staff and atmosphere were great. Food was average, came out very quickly and I think mostly precooked. Would go again for drinks but probably not for food. Staff did a good job catering to the holiday crowds.
D. K. (.
Great range of beers on tap and bistro food was great pub quality food. Nice selection of whiskies too
T. D.
Delicious food and reasonably priced
M. C.
We had the best lunch for a long time! 2 children’s steak meals, a quiche lorraine and a Moroccan steak salad. All meals were cooked to perfection and really reasonably priced. I would highly recommend lunch at the Apollo Bay Hotel. 😀
N. C.
Great meals, friendly staff, thanks again.
T. Y.
Food was amazing but the service was beyond amazing. Our server was David and he was hilarious and very complimentary. Really went above and beyond to make our experience the best it could be and he was very successful. Will definitely be back
M. E.
We ordered take away pizzas after reading some great reviews. The staff were lovely and seated us at a table by the fire place while we waited. The pizzas were PERFECT!!! We ordered a satay chicken (no capsicum), pepperoni and aussie pizzas. Bases were the perfect medium, not too thin or thick. The base sauce was delicious and didn't overpower the flavour of the toppings. Not greasy, base was crisp and fresh. Also ordered a side of garlic bread but didn't get a pic before it was inhaled. It was delicious, not the cheap garlic bread. The pizzas were just as tasty as a midnight snack. Highly recommend!!
C. B.
It was amazing. We went in for dinner an we were surprised. 4 meals and everyone was perfect. Steaks are on the point. Watermelon salad looks and taste amazing. Vegetarian pizza was perfect and the same with the fish.
So just perfect!
B. M.
Beautiful views out on the deck area for drinks and some great meals. Staff were super friendly and had a really good vibe!
S. t.
Both food and drinks were below average, lovely spot though. We did not return during our stay in Apollo bay
R. K.
I ordered food over the bar. Service was quick. There was a mistake worth my order. The barstaff were very apologetic, even know it was not his fault. He gave me a drink on the house while the order was being replaced and was extremely friendly. Great service A+++
J. G.
Great spot but if dining outside you will need to be near the entrance as that sun can be piercing toward the back of the outside dining area. Can only comment on the pizza menu as that was the only option available . Not the best.. Processed cardboard textured base with lovely toppings.. Almost got it 👉
Cuatomer service, friendly and helpful.
J. H.
Was great for a drink plus a lovely meal. Here for the great ocean road running festival, so was busy as! Great atmosphere on this particular weekend, will be back probably for the 14km run on the sat rather than the half mara just so we can enjoy more of the entertainment provided.
A. B.
A great little place to eat. A group of six of us popped into this place for a last minute dinner. Across the cod, lamb chops, tandoori chicken salad and prawns, everyone was impressed with the quality, taste and overall portion size. It's not the cheapest but reasonable for what it is. The bistro closes at 9pm.
G. D.
Great atmosphere. Great staff. Fantastic ribs & the wife said her fish ad chips was great
S. M.
Friendly staff good location. Bar prices reasonable. But disappointed in my roast pork meal. Cold plate made food cold and the only roasted thing was the pork. Extra crackle was the only thing that stopped me from sending it back. And seeing them turn people away at 8pm on a wed night in school holidays when it says 9pm had us shaking our heads. Won't go back for rest of our stay in the bay.
F. C.
We came late to order food, it was about 20:30 - 20:40 when we came and we have been "lucky" to be accepted by probably the responsible/owner who saw we were 8 people. We had time to order anyway and surprisingly the food came very very fast! We ordered smoked salmon, maroccan lamb ribs, fried prawns, pasta... etc.... I am quiet precise if I say that within 20 - 25 minutes we were having our meals on the table.
the big problem: FLIES FLIES FLIES FLIES FLIES... WHY WHY WHY??? This was horrible and embarrassing for our overseas guests and for all of us too... It was disgusting and I have been forced by the partner to stay calm and not to complain and ruin the evening.
I have been traveling all around the world and I have been in Countries where Hygiene is worse than our Western Countries but at least they put in place small actions just to fight the flies (rudimental devices who turn fast and in circle and this actually keep flies away or the simple light who attracts and kills the flies, I am pretty sure everybody has those in their houses.
We are talking about the common flies.. the one that eat and put eggs in feces. We were eating with them and they were touching our food and us and we could not winning the battle... there were 20... 30.. 40.. who knows how many...
We did not see any mosquito/flies buzzers or anti flies light devices, the ones with the purple light who attracts insects and then kill them with electricity. they are cheap and they actually work pretty good!
why don't you buy them?
I have never eaten in such situation where I have to eat fast and moving my hand continuously to avoid the flies touch food, glasses, forks and myself. It was also hot and humid inside....
This applied to all people. For sure this situation was not a good presentation to our overseas guests. This is actually a breach of Food Hygiene in many Countries and some rectifications should be put on place.
Food was average and price was the usually 29 - 36 $ dollars meal...
Cleanliness and so Hygiene are important factors... very important... people get sick... infections and diseases spreads easily like that.
M. B.
Nice fish and chips for a late lunch
M. D.
Had a great fish and chips meal, good service with friendly staff. Will be back.
J. G.
Nice restaurant, pizza was pretty good and reasonably priced however I would not recommend the one with potato and garlic on it. Good selection of beer (mainly Matilda Bay and Carlton United varieties).
The public bar is definitely for the locals, visitors will most likely feel more comfortable in the restaurant or out on the deck.
B. C.
Food comes out fast and service is reasonable. As if they're aiming for quantity over quality food wise. Meals were a bit hit and miss.
B. W.
The foods good and the pizzas are the best in town hands down. The drinks prices are also a lot cheaper and fairer than the top pub who are absolute thieves. The Apollo bay hotel is definitely the pub to be at and has a great atmosphere.
P. O.
Lovely venue. Staff are very friendly too. Not a massive beer selection, mostly the big beer companies on tap which wouldn't normally be a problem but they charge more for a schooner than the pub that serves craft beer 100m up the road.
B. J. (.
A nice enough pub. We only went to the bistro side, but the main bar looked warm and inviting. The food was nice enough ... nothing to rock your socks off, but far from terrible. The kids meals came with veggies which is admirable.
Compared to the 'Brew House' down the road, the tap beer selection is about as mainstream (i.e. boring) as you can get. But my guess is, this suits the main demographic of locals. Or at least, enough locals to differentiate themselves from what the other joints aims for.
It's clean, it's nice, the toilets are nice (though a change table would be good ... unless they prefer parents of babies/toddlers not eat there), the decor is pleasant. I'd eat there again next time.
T. M.
Spent two lovely evenings perched on the outdoor area overlooking the town of Apollo Bay sipping on a cider. I can highly recommend the pumpkin and blue cheese pizza, it was a delicious vegetarian option. Hubby wasn't so keen on the steak (overpriced?) But all round good option for dinner in the town.
G. V.
Restaurant is quite good. The Scoth Beef is absolutely great. Soft meat and really tender.
However, stay away from the Wagyu Burguer because it is frozen and does not taste good.
Staff very polite and friendly.
J. C.
Very friendly and locals were welcoming. Had excellent customer service with acceptional attention to detail. Beautiful place to visit.

It has indoor resturant setting, for chic dinning. You can call and reserve your table. Pleasant cheerful staff. There is also the outdoor benches. You have the beautiful green ground across the road and also you can bring your dog (outside omly). Food is good. We have yummy pizza. Very delicious. Vegie delight was a super delight, and also the chicken barbecue was excellent. We enjoyed our meal. We sat outdoor.

Good value as far as the Victorian coast pub's go ,modern menu with lots of choices.
Great location to the beach and on the main street, opposite the carnival during summer for the kids and young at heart, walking distance to anywere you stay at the Bay.
K. B.
Great to be back, great food & service

P. B.
Ribs and service was great just didn't have any local seafood on the menu...
M. S.
Great place...first time I was there was new years eve 1982. Nice food and goodservice
M. Y.
Amazing staff and my food came out so quickly! One of the waitresses noticed I didn't receive any lemon with my meal, asked if I would like some, and came back with a bowl of lemon. It was busy but my food came out within 10 minutes.

After a long day of exploring Melbourne great ocean road. We just wanted a nice meal ti finish of a great day. The food is Extremely fresh and the food quality tells of a very experienced chef. The service by staff was spot on and it felt locally staffed, pleasent, family and the family atmosphere is very cosy. Highly recommended if youre here in the area.
B. Z.
Popped in for a quick dinner. The service was excellent and fast. Very friendly staff. Food was good with a good portion of vegetables still crunchy and not horribly soggy. We would go there again.
M.
Great. Food is decent, prices expected, and most importantly the interior designer understood acoustics and how to minimise noise in the eating area. I thoroughly enjoy being able to have a discussion at dinner without shouting.
T. B.
Got to the hotel too late for the standard pub menu but could still have the bar served pizzas that were really good! Had a veggie and pepperoni one and both came in good time and really well cooked.
G. M.
Me and hubby had good session tonight, first time in Apollo bay, staff were really friendly, service was quick and drinks cold, exactly how we like it ☺️
Had a cheese sticks which game out real quickly after ordering them, but it hit the spot for us specially after couple hour drinking session 😅😂🤣
Also Locals we spoke with were lovely, specially Greg, thanks for joining and playing couple games of Pool 😉
Thank you guys 🙏
M. 4.
One of the most enjoyable meals had.
The chicken parmi was beautiful and the risoto was great. Will definetly be back. The live music also added to the pleasure of eating out. The atmosphere was a buzz. It has out side and inside dining with plenty of room and did not have to reserve a table.
M. T.
Food available rapidly after ordering, which is awesome, but maybe a little too rapidly not giving meat time to cook fully, lamb cutlets just a little too rare. Staff great, atmosphere fantastic, location awesome, will go again.
S. H.
The staff here make this bistro style dining amazing. Food is good & well priced for a tourist destination. Its a huge well set out area with very efficient processes so diners are not kept waiting.
M. R.
Delicious & bloody goes off when they have bands and events here! Good for the family, good for the friends - highly recommend.
R. E. c.
I have been come to this pub for year as I visit the bay and have seen how big it has grown and how great this place has become .
The friendly door service, friends and myself received when we arrived for lunch .
The restaurant is huge and you have very nice inside dinning area and a big outdoor area facing the sea to enjoy a drink or meal .
The food we had while visiting was delicious and will certainly be back .
There is two big bars on the dinning area so easy to get drinks and food and drinks are at standard pricing .
S. Z.
Had a great time. Quiet place. The night time annual carnival was fun. Looks pretty lit up at night. Across from Apollo Bay Hotel.
I. M.
Great family meal & fantastic outdoor meeting place with a view which even accommodated my dog with a drink & a schmacko! Friendly staff too
A. P.
Their craft beer range has improved recently which is great to see. Good classic pub food too.
J.
Has a sign out front saying it has Australia's top ten craft beers. By the looks of the list the ranking is a bit old. Food was ok but a bit pricey. Pizza was not bad. Went to get some beer from the bottle shop and the six pack was $5 more expensive than the shop next door.
M. R.
Ordered and waited over 35mins to discover that the order hadn't gone through to the kitchen.
So why 5 stars. Because they owned their mistake abd worked hard to put it all right and the food was great. An amazing steak with peppercorn sauce for me and pumpkin soup and a side of grilled green beans for her.
N. S.
Michelle is awesome and Stirky and Drifter are the most patient and awesome locals to hang out with.
Actually all the locals are fabulous. I’m moving here as soon as I can.
Thank you for your hospitality team Apollo Bay.
PS the newsagent and post office have the friendliest and most helpful staff ever. You guys all rock. 😁
J. S.
Food was really tasty. Venue had a good range of beers. Biggest let down was the air conditioning. Unfortunately it was a very hot on the day and the aircon couldn't cope. Most definitely would go back on a cooler day, or when there's enough of a breeze and the doors are open.
V. C.
Came down for a break from the city, unlike similar establishments, it was a relaxed environment, the service here was excellent everyone was friendly and welcoming, and the food was delicious. Will certainly come back.
T. O.
Great experience with the staff, was slightly unhappy with my meal and just gave the waitress my opinion (no yelling, just feedback) and they accommodated very well. The staff were amazing and the Pizzas were to die for.
L. C.
Food is amazing, fish was beautiful, dessert was fresh and fruit was sweet. Staff were very accommodating.
L. V.
The food was very good service very happy. But I have traveled the world and been Italian the spaghetti marinara I had last night i have never seen cut baby spaghetti serve with marinara that is a insult to the Italian cuisine 😡
A. K.
Bright, VERY BUSY dining room on a holiday weekend. REMEMBER TO BOOK your spot in the dining room. Mucked up our pizza order but fixed it pronto when made aware. Pub fare with vegan pizza option which I must say was pretty damn good. Good waiting staff where flat out. One flaw was evident. Seated customers watched one young woman turn away or offer limited bar places to hopeful diners who had not booked ahead. She got called away and was replaced by a senior for five minutes who immediately began to place new arriving hopefuls. Consistency guys.
J.
Had the ribs with chips and salad amazing, the ribs where soft and delicious great chips as well, lovely customer service.
A. J.
Great meal and very reasonably priced, very friendly atmosphere and great surroundings. Tables on the balcony are fantastic.
J. E.
service excellent the staff were friendly and the meal what was expected. Great atmosphere.
A. G.
Been coming to this place for over 25 years and was shocked to be charged a 'public holiday surcharge' whilst eating in the bar on New Years Day. Lovely surrounds except for the fireplace full of cigarette butts. Bar meals were nice.
C. A. (.
Great atmosphere with people and a band.
It was however, disengenious to have a sign outside that said $6 cocktails only to be told that it's not available until February, I even read the fine print.
My mojito was ridiculously minty and not enjoyable. But it wasn't a bad joint.
a. p.
Good pub fare, reasonable serving sizes. Wouldn’t rave about it but good solid pub food.
K. B.
New girl on the door was great(kept calm and friendly) despite being left alone on first shift during a busy weekend. Food was perfect despite large crowd...Good work kitchen maintaining food quality during busy period(seafood festival weekend)
M. G.
Nice place , good food .. reccomended that you book a table in advance , can be busy during weekends ..
N. G.
Delicious food and fast service. Kids loved their Parmis and the steak was cooked perfectly. Thank you
M. M.
Friendly staff, great meal the kids meals were a very good size.
d. f.
Great cosy, tidy and comforting hotel room, very good quality for price! Was skeptical about the price of meals but when the garlic bread arrived in 4 minutes and was beautiful and both of our mains only took 10 minutes and were also beautiful with a full bistro and bar price goes out the window, very impressed with this over night stay
J.
The staff are friendly and work extremely hard. The atmosphere on the front verandah was lovely and very family friendly. Nice place to relax
The food was good.
P. M. G.
The best pub of apollo bay, live music, good food, nice atmosphere for a couple or friends.
D. A.
Food was superb! Highly recommend the Burramundi. As long as you don't mind ordering your own food and drink from the bar/s and paying as you order, this place is perfect. Service was incredible, food was out in less than 10mins with a packed restaurant!!
A. A.
Good food great customer service, fast food no crazy waits, good all round family spot
L. T.
The air conditioning on this particular hot hot day was terrible. And the summer staffing was very light on. We were there on the 30/12/19. Food was nice. Drinks were cold.
J. W.
good service
good food
nice view
D. D.
Nice venue overlooking the bay. Tasty food, well presented with prompt service. Gaming room and bistro in separate areas. Ample parking on site. Nice spot on a cold night.
N. R.
Nice Hotel friendly staff but $28.00 for a chicken schnitzel with chips over the top.
K.
Came here under arrangement of a tour. The food is alright, not sure about the price because it's included in the tour packages. Service could be improved, the staff aren't as friendly compared to those I encountered in other places. I requested extra tartar sauce but the staff told me to just get it at the pantry, the thing is I have went there previously to check and they only have ketchup, chilli sauce, BBQ sauce and also mayonnaise there.
W. M.
Had a really good lunch, good service and peaceful. A shame the local council doesn't inforce there parking laws, nearly impossible to find a parking spot for a car and caravan as all parking bay's signed for cars with caravans, trailers and buses were taken by single cars.
A. R.
The food was great, and fast. I waited approximately 20 minutes at the bar before being served. It was a really busy weekend with the running festival, so I will forgive them for that.
C. M.
We were met by a friendly young lady to be seated. Not a huge menu but enough to choose from. Both our meals were excellant and well priced. The bar staff were super friendly. Definately recommend this place.
A. S. J.
Great Pub Grub look if your looking for 5 srar service its a country town for gods sake... why people expect luxury 5 star dinning in country towns and moan if they have to wait 5 mins more for their steak cause they wanted well done is pathetic.. its great
S. T.
If you are a fan of anything truffle please do yourself a favour and try the truffle chips
Truffle mayo, parmesan cheese and truffle oil lightly poured over the chips
Delicious!
M. J.
One of the best bistro have ever been too. Wonderful staff even got a chair for my little ones teddy food came quicker than a fast food joint was delicious and reasonably priced.
S. T.
The chicken tikka pizza was mind blowing. Would have been regular customer only if I lived nearby. Friendly staff, quick service and AMAZING pizza.
G. G.
Chicken satay pizza was really good! Like, far exceeding expectations. Venue more crowded and noisy than I like, but it was during the seafood festival so fair cop.
C. M.
Great to be open on a public holiday and the food was ok. The pizza toppings were really nice but the bases were obviously pre-bought frozen ones which was disappointing. Service was ok and there were lots of good options on the menu but a bit pricey.
B. P.
The prices are pretty high for an order yourself at the counter service, also way too cold in there. Standard pub food really, tasty but not a lot of choice.
R. J.
Great food, the chips are the best I've ever tasted, the atmosphere was pretty good too. Accommodation was actually pretty impressive for a pub, I highly recommend going.
A. K.
A nice beach hotel with friendly staff. Came late without reservation, no problems which was highly appreciated.
Clean and quiet room even if street was busy and noisy. Would give another star if they offered breakfast, truly disappointing at such nice place.
T. J.
The staff are kind and the food tastes decent. However the food comes out so quickly it seems like the food was reheated.
The prices are high, but that is the way this town is.
Z. D.
Nice atmosphere and fantastic spot, food came out within 10 mins (really quiet at the time though) a little too expensive for quality and portion size, probably paying for the scenery, good choice of beer on tap
G. B.
Great place great staff food and atmosphere
S. B.
Had dinner here with the mrs. We tossed up between this place and the pub down the road. We chose poorly. Decided to get the prawns as a starter. Sounded well enough with some salad and a honey almond dipping sauce. It looked like someone just grabbed a handfull of unpeeled prawns, plonked them on a bed of rocket and served with a side of honey with a few almond flakes in it. All this for 22 bucks. We felt quite foolish for getting it. Also the salad tasted like the prawn shells. Otherwise the chicken parmigian was below average and the pumpkin soup was ok. Give this place a try but please do not order the prawn starter, absolute joke of a dish.
r. l.
Great customer service. Very friendly staff. Napkins were very soft and pizza was great.
D.
Went with low expectations after reading reviews but was pleasantly surprised.
Food was good, very busy though. We arrived at 5.30 exactly and we're lucky to get a table without a reservation
K. S.
Great service
Meals good size and hot
Cold beer
M. B.
Nice hearty meals. Chicken parmigiana with salad and chips was really nice, filled me up and didn't cost the earth. What more can you ask for. Service was good and place looked well kept
W. C.
I thought the meals were over priced but the ambience of course is what you pay a premium for. The seafood stew for the price was grossly inadequate but the common Parma was reasonable
W. H.
What a place, amazing staff and top notch food. Don't miss their Nachos and Sangria
P. R.
Good menu, ample room and very helpful staff.
E. A. P.
Newly renovated and spectacular meals. Nice beer garden at the rear of premises.
C. B.
Great traditional pub with views of the ocean. Food surprisingly good, especially Wagyu steak. Some craft beer options as well as the normal range.
R. K.
Two dogs?? What a howler of a nite. Awesome fun. I'll be back for Two dogs and I'll bring the pack with me too.
K. C.
Dropped in for a pint had another. Good beer , good service nice location friendly staff . Nice and clean and good opening hours from whst I saw. Didnt eat there but only as we had other plans
D. J.
Great Apollo Bay eatery, with food and drinks catering to all cuisines at prices comparable to Geelong and Melbourne
P. M.
Amazing fish and chips, so fresh!! Fast and friendly service 😊
S. C.
This beach road restaurant adds more glamour to the journey....well trained boys & girls are here to pamper you and you are well taken care of.. being vegetarian they took care of my needs with rich complimentary smile flowing in and around.. Penner cottage cheese made in India style with well cooked jasmine rice made my day.. Look at the plate... Cant lick because.....dining etiquette? hmmmmmmmm
.follwed by Dessert & coffee...
A. M.
I have been in Australia for 8 years and i have visited many pizza places all around but this place must be the one to provide the best pizza. Hats off to the Pizza Chef. And Thank you.
S. S.
Best surf and turf on the planet. Rib eye, prawns, lamb chop, gummy shark, salad and chips. Absolutely delicious. Oh, first class coffee too
S. G.
Went there again recently and this time the service was great! The food was also great as usual. Very glad to see their improvement. Will come back again this Christmas.
D. M.
Great customer service. Happy hour pints were very good. Will visit again!

The best way to get away from the other side of life and everything else is just getting to the "Great Ocean Rd 😊" to the lovely, quite, friendly staff and very clean and comfortable.
You want to just stay here. .
Thanks for the best time away .
Ocean, and Forests awesome
So close to everything 😊
S. S.
Food was good. Could use a couple of smaller, less specialty pizza options on the kids menu. Service was fast and friendly.

The chicken tikka pizza. Wow it was very delicious, nice amount of spice. Good price too. Very happy with the service. Great entertainment too.👍
N. M.
Excellent service. Great food and decent prices. Parma wasnt anything special but it was still good. Chocolate lava cake for dessert was amazing. Definitely recommend coming in for lunch or dinner
N. C.
Lovely hotel to spend a weekend. Walking distance to town centre and the beach. Clean apartment, has everything we need, and even have a view of the beach and a lovely rainbow.
R. J.
great food, the pastas were not really hot, a little loud (a lot of people) - but the meat was awesome! I would go again and can recommand it to everyone!
G. H.
Food was ok, priced higher than it should be. Staff were rude and dismissive, and noisily moving tables and calling to each other while everyone tried to eat. Everything was disorganised.
D. C.
Absolutely excellent well worth stopping in food is excellent and the location is just stunning
C. L.
Great service, fantastic food, great atmosphere. And that was on a Tuesday night in winter, will be back to try in summer. Best snitzel and steak we have had.
G. L.
Great pub in very touristy location. Staff handled my food complaint exceptionally well. Recommended.
L. T.

We went in after the Great Ocean Road Marathon and the atmosphere was electric, packed, great live music, tasty pizza and cool beer! What more could you possibly want..
a. f.
Food Ok. No vegan offerings. Except plant of roasted root vegies. Which was missing quite a few root vegies such as beetroot turnips parsnips carrots sweet pot
Had cauliflower pumkin potato beans. DIDNT EVEN HAVE ROAST ONION OR GARLIC. Drinks expensive.
c. s.
Great place with a nice vibe and it is by far the best vegetarian Delight pizza i have ever tasted!! Staff were really friendly too!
C. A.
Great place for an evening meal and a cold pint. Great pizza with a large menu which come with great prices. Wonderful fire and very welcoming staff.
C. W.
We had the chicken pizza and it was very very good! Price is not too bad either. I'm sure everything else would have been very good.
R. C.
We had a beautiful meal there and the young man who served us was very pleasant and easy to talk to, awesome place highly recommend.
A. D.
The food was delicious and you should definitely consider going there and I recommend to try the pork ribs, chicken parmigiana and last but not least the americano pizza.
J. C.
Nice place, friendly staff. Dont mind paying $25+ for a chicken parmigiana but this one was a bit disappointing, couldnt tell if it was overcooked or undercooked.
M.
Pretty good food, decent selection of beer and good atmosphere. Seems like a family friendly pub with lots of kids running around.
M. B.
Great location, good food and friendly service. Enjoyed our meal there. One of the few outlets that is open after 8 pm
B. C.
Love this place. It's elevated so gives you a view of the sea. Good food and great service. Best place for a feed in Appollo Bay.
S. D.
Ordered for a table of 5 and the order was taken wrong... Sent incorrect meal back to the kitchen where it was promptly forgotten. Rest of table finished eating while we repeatedly asked staff for updates... Lone meal arrived 45 minutes later. Terrible service.
C. E.
Excellent surf and turf with great views from the table. Exceptional hotel
e.
The food was very nice and the staff were friendly but my only con is that the food did take a while to come out
M. J.

Meals nice but a bit skimpy and pricey, I've come to expect more from country pubs. Drinks prices a bit steep..
N. H.
Great space, very pretty. Good service and big variety at bar. Food quality was good and servings were generous.
A. N.
Was there on the weekend, kitchen got closed early on Sunday but they had pizza available.
Like the view from deck, live music and designated smoking area. Will go there if I travel to that area again.
G. R.
Ques were very long , food was average but good place for a large family
K. B.
Great location with a good bar selection. Food is decent but over priced probably due to the premium spot on the strip.
D. P.
Very nice. Cosy yet space to move. Prices are reasonable. Service excellent. Food lovely. Not a lot of vegetarian choices though.
M. S.
Good food, was a busy but fun night
M. R.

Easily the best Parma and chips we have ever had. Our raspberry lemonade tasted like it had beer in it though. :))
