About

The Barwon Heads Hotel has four distinct spaces: the bistro serving fresh seasonal produce with vegetarian and gluten-free options, a cocktail lounge (bridge bar) for drinks and light bites, a sports bar for live sport, and a private function room for up to 60 guests. Wednesday parmi nights ($24) and Thursday steak nights ($28) draw the locals, while summer weekends bring free live music to the beer garden. About 20 minutes from Geelong CBD, the hotel also offers on-site accommodation — making it a solid base for exploring the Bellarine Peninsula.
