    Fabulous experience! This hotel is part of my local neighbourhood, but in 21 years of living here, I've never eaten here. The food was wonderful - tasty and fresh. Serves were reasonable, and the prices were good. The view of the bay is spectacular, and it was lovely to be able to show that off to my Tasmanian friends! The waiters were more than helpful, even taking some photos for us and preparing some Martinis in a special way! 5 stars all round, and I'll definitely be back soon!

    Purely basing my review on my Sunday afternoon drinks. Have yet to try the food so can’t judge on that department. But overall this place has become one of my favourite places for a sit down drink. The venue has its own parking which is highly underrated, as most street parking in the area is limited and paid parking. Big win already. The venue is quite big and spacious, every time I’ve come here I have not need to book and been able to find a table easily. Each table has its QR menu so ordering is easy. The chips for $7 is quite good and plentiful. I usually order a jug of Stone & Wood Pale Ale for $25 which is well priced. Great place for afternoon drinks, nice views and warm atmosphere.

    We went to dinner at Brighton beach hotel as I’d heard the views were spectacular and I was craving a classic steak sandwich. The views were certainly nice but the venue itself was absolute pensioner central so a strange sort of atmosphere. Particularly as there was a vast contrast between the 80 years plus majority clientele and the 21st happening in the beer garden. I ordered the calamari entree and the steak sandwich main, both of which were very average. We were missing cutlery and our water never turned up so the service wasn’t much chop either. Wouldn’t go back

    8 of us for lunch. Had to order on app which I don't like doing and for very good reason! Everyone had received their meals except for my vegetarian pasta and another's steak. After 30 mins I approach one of the staff members to find out what going on. She said she'd look into it. After another 15 mins approach another staff member and they said that if you order within 90 seconds of someone else then your order is combined on docket and I said regardless it doesn't take 45 minutes to cook a steak and pasta. 9.6.23 called in for a drink after coming back from city. It was late so we sat in the Sportsman's Bar to have a drink which as the name suggests had wall to wall big screen TV's showing the footy. Anyway quite popular but what I loved was that they have pool tables and back in the day my husband was a top pool player! 17.12 with friends for lunch and after waiting 30 mins for a coffee (!) ordered vegetarian schnitzel (eggplant) with chips and salad. Didn't like it. Others had calamari and chips. Place busy and system always seems to let them down. Note view from hotel is spectacular!

    Thank you so much Leanne & team for hosting our wedding on 4/2/23. We had our ceremony and reception upstairs and it was the perfect amount of space for our 54 guests to spread out, eat, drink and dance. Leanne made sure the entire day was perfect from bringing me up to the bridal room before the ceremony, ensuring my bridesmaids and I had a great entrance to the ceremony and then putting some finger food aside for us afterwards. The timing of the reception was spot on with guests being fed hot meals quite promptly. She made sure our DJ and photobooth guy knew where to set up and chased my cake when it didn't arrive on time. I never had to look for Leanne, she was always there just making sure things were going well. The venue itself is really nice with the perfect view from the balcony. Many of our guests went outside for photos, especially at sunset. Overall the venue is great value, and we were so happy to find a place that already looked good inside - we just brought a welcome sign, and some flowers and candles for the tables. It was so convenient to have the ceremony and reception in the same place as well. We have had nothing but compliments from our guests on how comfortable they were, the food and drinks, the location and great vibe. Thanks again Leanne & team for helping us pull off an amazing wedding! - From Sarah & Stuart

    One word - DELICIOUS!! Everything we ordered was 10/10, even enjoyed a couple nice drinks while watching the sunset from the beer garden. It was a lovely night and the place had friendly staff, highly recommend.

    This review is mainly about the food. The actual pub staff are nice. Good drinks nice pool table. The food use to be good but since it’s changed hands the food is a massive let down know. I had the caesar salad they didn’t have grilled chicken available, so I had the karage chicken it was ok but had better els where. My partner had the chicken schnitzel, the coleslaw was lacking flavour my partner said it’l was Average

    When we arrived the place was disgustingly dirty, the beer garden is beautiful but the inside seating is rather lacking. Food is nice enough but th service is a mess, while I was here they just didn’t bring two dishes after serving everyone else gave us a glass of Diet Coke when we ordered a jug of coke 0, and gave the table next to us a cheeseburger without cheese.

    I have just had a fantastic seniors lunch !! It was so delicious! and waitress Anna was so attentive & kind ! Anna made my booking when I phoned a few days ago .. a booking for 2 by the window, the day after my birthday. All was perfect (except my friend had to cancel at the last minute) , so I ate alone but not lonely . Amazing food, special attention by Anna (who remembered making the booking even) , and beautiful sea views ensured a lovely birthday memory !! 👌

    View is AMAZING, and the Apple crumble was nice. But the service was poor and the waiter at the bar was rude. This put off my day. Not a great place to be...

    Lovely spacious venue with great views and wonderful staff. The food is standard pub fare executed well. Tip: Book a table by one of the windows or (if the weather is good) in the sheltered outside area.

    If you’re planning to have your wedding or any function here, don’t bother. There is a reason they’re cheap. I went to look at the venue, loved it, was shown where my ceremony was going to be, my reception. All seemed too perfect. Paid the deposit and that was that. I was told that I’d be contacted a few months out from my wedding to pick my menu items. Many months later I emailed to confirm everything as we were now 12 months out. To cut a long story short I found out that my ceremony space was no longer available, it was currently getting turned into a sports bar. Lee basically told me bad luck because I booked 2 years in advance and things change and it’s not their problem. I asked when they were going to notify me that I couldn’t have my ceremony there anymore and they couldn’t tell me. Lee didn’t plan on telling me at all. No apology was given, just excuses. Worst customer service. Don’t waste your time. Find a different venue that won’t lie to get you to pay a deposit.

    Good simple food for a late lunch on a Sunday. Trio of dips needs more bread. Expensive cocktails , $25 for a spritz Service is great and friendly Great location Lots of people but not too loud. Solid 4 stars. Good management Needs to double check for vax. Still 4 stars... Dips are better... FYI.. thanks.. beetroot too sweet but add Chili sauce to make it amazing....

    Hotel is easy to get to with parking right outside the door. The view is amazing from the restaurant. The food is very reasonably priced and great value for money. The service needs to be improved as only two of the three meals ordered came out together and there was a considerable wait for the third meal. We had to ask where it was!

    The morrocon lamb salad was INCREDIBLE. Perfectly cooked and seasoned, couldn't put my fork down! Fast and very lovely servers. The beer garden was stunning over sunset and the heaters kept us warm outside. The inside was classic pub, with pokies and a little bar with knowledgeable bar staff. Will go again for family dinners!!

    Not as friendly as it once was Also not as clean. Let's just say I was there on a bad day. The beer was cold the patrons were friendly enough. I would go back again hopefully on a better day cheers. It's now 1.7.2022 and I went out for dinner to the BBH and how very disappointing it was I ordered prawn cutlets and was given 8 small prawns I orded chicken Parmalat and it was over cooked. 😢 no chief in his professional career would send these meals out. 1 star for me for being loyal and going back. Please better food it was Thursday night 8 pm

    It was a random find when going to a late beach session with the family, but I'm so glad we found it. Customer service when we entered until we left was amazing. The staff are so friendly and accommodated us immediately without a booking. Food was outstanding for both adults and kids. I have never seen my kids clear their plates or as fast as they did. Portions were just perfect, leaving you full but not bloated. Amazing views of Brighton Beach and would highly recommend if you're in the area. They have a beer garden and inside eating area. Kids' menu was great, and their portions were just enough to fit also a serve of ice cream as well on a summer night. I can't wait to go again and thanks to staff for being so amazing!

    Went to the BBH with family - overall an excellent experience. Tasted quite a few meals - all were very good. Cheeseburger was delicious - one of the nicest I've ever had and that includes eating a lot in America. Tasty steak pizza was fresh with a crispy base, the beer-battered fish fillets were piping hot and really lovely. Snapper was very good too. All meals were very generous size with reasonable prices and a magnificent view!

    We booked for lunch on 25 June 2020 there was a group of 4 of us at the 1 o'clock sitting. We waited more than 15 minutes for someone to take our drinks order. Then it was time to order food and my 3 friends ordered their meal and I ordered a bowl of chips and the lady very quickly said i need to order a main meal as they can't do the chips for me. I told hher I am a vegan to which she said I can order a salid. As all I wanted were chips, I told her I won't order anything and then she said I can't sit there with no food. We then got up and left, so they lost the 3 other main meals we were going to order. We have never had a good experience here over the last few years and today takes the cake. We will never be back. Staff are rood and not friendly and everying including signing seems too hard for them.

    Christmas buffet lunch was a really lovely experience. Beautiful summer sea views and festive decor created the perfect ambience. There were so many choices of delicious food that everyone was surely catered for. A great selection and an abundance of food you could not possibly want for anything. Hats off to the terrific staff for helping make our Christmas 2022 lunch a perfect one.

    This place has a lot going for it. Ocean view dining with super friendly and helpful staff, two bars and and beautiful beer garden with ocean view on the outside and covered. Good selection of beers on the tap. The food is pretty good and the place is great for families and large groups to dine. No kids play area means you should entertain your kids. A senior menu as well as pokies in the back adds to what this fantastically located Brighton place has to offer not to forget the function area upstairs. Cheers!

    Lovely views of Brighton Beach. Sailing boats on the horizon and a dolphin close to shore🙂 Nice, light filled hotel. Not nearly enough staff to attend tables. Average pub fare. Overall not bad.

    The staff were amazing but I think they should have been at least another 2 staff to cope. Atmosphere was great and it was a beautiful day which helped. The quality of food was surprisingly good. Well done. Also good value for money. I can see why it was so busy.

    We had our family Christmas lunch and the overall atmosphere was relaxing and comfortable with a view of Brighton beach.The lunch was delicious and even the kids meals was a great size and no complaints from my 3x girls.I had the fisherman basket lunch and I was in heaven.It was mouth watering delicious and can't fault the meals.Staff were very attentive and overall service was excellent.Highly recommend for a enjoyable lunch or gathering with that awesome waterfront view.👍

  • 3/5 ray m. 2 months ago on Google • 38 reviews New
    I would have given 4 stars for service, but they cut corners (understandable on a busy time) by serving an incomplete food compared to what's shown on the menu. The rest of food that we ordered was good. Location and atmosphere is great. Hopefully this kind of service does not happen again.

  • 1/5 Thi L. 6 months ago on Google • 27 reviews
    Terrible first time trying this place with exact 40mins wait. others came after me ordered same food but they received the dish first. 📍Kid 2xburgers meal with strawberry topping & water BUT (burgers were too dry, Chips tasted weird dried & hard undercooked, NO topping and NO water) 📍Salf & Pepper Calamari ( Calamari too soft, had no taste of salt & no pepper) 📍Peri Peri Pizza (Too much cheese, less meat, tasted like curry pizza) Staffs were helpless didnt bother go check our foods and stated that wait time should be 30-40mins. Wont go back this place ever again.

    We celebrated our wedding last Saturday and the venue at the Brighton Beach Hotel looked fantastic. The food was amazing and the staff and service was exemplary. Special thanks to Dan, Michelle and Shannon for making the evening very special for us and our guests.

    Me and my missus are visiting Melbourne from Sydney and we are doing a self driving Holiday, on our way to Phillip Island we took the scenic view as as we saw this Beautiful place right in front of the beach we got so excited cause we were starving. We ordered the chicken burger and the meat pie. The looks of the food were good but oh dear lord the smell and the taste of the pie was very unpleasant as it was obviously been defrosted after being in the freezer for ages for sure the crust was hard but oh god I was disgusted the rest of the day, (don’t know if anyone has ever eaten something that’s been for too long in the freezer but this stanked exactly like that,off) the mash potato was bland and nothing special the peas I bet were frozen too, the chicken burger was a bit more bearable but it was delivered on red bun as “they had ran out of normal buns” it was obvious that it had been frozen too because it was crumbling all over the place… I didn’t wanna make a fuzz cause we are on holiday and honestly we don’t need to argue or stress in any way shape or form but as we had to continue I just eat it, I also didn’t want my missus to feel stressed or bad as she googled this place and she liked that it had an ocean view. Prices are exorbitant considering the quality of the food in this place. Bartender guy was also arrogant and unhelpful. Shame on the chef and management of Brighton Beach Hotel it actually looks like a high end place for wealthy people But beware and come here at your own risk. Not impressed at all

  • 1/5 David Le B. 1 year ago on Google
    Very bad experience. The food was not up to scratch, even for basic pub food. The Caesar Salad had grit in the lettuce, the bacon was small, under cooked and insipid. The Calamari was under cooked and soggy, the Margherita Pizza (pictured) was was covered in so much cheese that the oil was floating on top and my daughter could not eat it. On top of the bad food, three entrees that we wanted and all steaks were not available. Did I mention it’s a pub? Also chips could not be served, unless with a meal. Which was a shame, because it was one of the few things our Coeliac daughter could eat apart from the soggy calamari. Give this place a miss, there are better pubs around.

  • 3/5 Siddharth A P. 1 year ago on Google
    To celebrate our 3rd engagement anniversary, we went for dinner at Brighton beach hotel today. I personally liked the Customer service but I did not enjoy the food and the location on the courtyard. There is a lot of sitting space on the ground level however not much space upstairs. We ordered Veg Pizza and Salad. Veg pizza had a lot of cheese and pesto whereas Salad was a bit blend. Looking at positives, Hotel has been located opposite brighton beach which allows you to have a nice view of the ocean.

  • 4/5 Hayden J. 4 months ago on Google
    Really good service with wait staff constantly checking. Food was good. Chips amazing, steak slightly inconsistent and some vegetables a bit undercooked. Great portion size though and for the type of venue it is the food was what I expected. Amazing views and generally decent atmosphere

  • 1/5 Peter H. 3 months ago on Google New
    I am sure people have given this place good reviews. But I can only go on what I experienced. Shocking service. Food did not come out in the right order. 5 of us went. 2 mains came out before starters arrived. I could go on but won't bore you with the details. Just hope that when you go it is your lucky day. It was not ours.

  • 4/5 Heidi D. 2 years ago on Google
    Was there for a function. Food was delicious, service great )despite being a function) and wait staff friendly. Only concern I have is there is no lift for disability access. I understand it is an older building and they didn’t have them that it would be great if they could accommodate this somehow

    Sunday lunch …. First visit to BBH in quite a few years and what a delightful change. The renovations are excellent and have opened up the whole area in arguably the best spot on Beach Rd., Service was timely and very efficient. Meals were of a very high standard and well priced. Very impressed with the wine list, a lot of variation and some top labels. Again the prices are very acceptable. Good to note that the Seniors are looked after with a very generous menu. Highly recommend BBH for a meal , or quite simply , stroll by and enjoy a drink and a snack .

    Met with a group of friends today here and had a fantastic afternoon. Staff were so attentive & friendly and although the food took a while it was obvious with the amount of other people here that it would. Food was worth the wait though I definitely recommend any of the pizzas. Beautiful views of the bay and such a fresh vibe. We couldn't think of a better spot to spend a Sunday afternoon

  • 3/5 Carolina H. 3 years ago on Google
    Stunning location, great venue. Such potential however food is terrible. Everything tasted as though it came out of a frozen food packet. No main vegetarian options. How in this day and age are venues still not accommodating vegetation’s. It seems the focus of this venue is still on pokies revenue. Really - so much more could be done to turn this pub into a Brighton destination. Unfortunately no changes have been made to improve food quality since they rebranded. I’m giving 3 stars as venue location is great, it was clean and well maintained. Staff were friendly and accommodating. Food unfortunately was a big miss. Please make some changes before you lose all your local and future clientele. We will not be returning.

    Came here few days go for a quick lunch. Great selections for the menu. We were not that hungry and decided to order the calamari and arancini. The service was pretty slow. Only one guy behind the bar who would look after the order from people who were sitting outside and inside. The food was ok. Beautiful view facing the beach. At least the food came pretty quick :)

  • 5/5 Jacquie D. 4 years ago on Google
    I had my son's 21st birthday here on the weekend in the beer garden, you know the wet and wild weekend. I was stressing about everyone getting wet and cold. Then along came the Knight in Shining armour, Lee, with his staff and rescued us. It was exactly like a fairy tale. Lee treated me like a Princess from the first phone call and eased my mind he patiently waited until we got organised enough to give final numbers and on the day, The food was amazing and plentiful. Catherine organised a corner of the bistro for us just in case the rain came. It was warm under the heaters, blankets if it got cold. We had the most amazing beautiful night. 80 people thoroughly enjoyed themselves. From the minute you walk in the staff happily greet you and nothing, absolutely nothing, was too hard for them to assist with. I honestly believe they genuinely cared that our celebration was a success and ensured that it was. If you are looking for a venue to hold any celebration, wedding, birthday, anything then Brighton Beach Hotel along with Lee and his beautiful staff is the place for you. Go check it out for youselves you will not be disappointed. THANKS A MILLION Jacquiie

    For the first time ever i am writing to point out how disappointed in not being able to get a gluten free seniors fish meal. Only 2 weeks before i had it but was told today that new menu cant be changed. I invited some friends along to join me as we all renembered how we used to come here in our teens Dont understand why us gluten free people dont get much of a choice in menu Cant see how hard it is to offer a plain grilled piece of fish to gluten free people Hope you improve Marlene

    Change of decor and menu since late 2019. Unable to sit at windows to see beach views. New chairs uncomfortable especially the arm rest. New menu disappointing. No pasta. On brightet note meals we did get were nice. Staff very friendly.

    When someone sends back an uncooked piece of meat they do not expect the chef to send the food back to them claiming it to be cooked and the customer to be wrong. This is a disgraceful way to treat a customer, that meal was unable to be finished and enjoyed to the full extent. A shame because the food was delicious. Pull your head in chef and give the customer a 5 star experience next time.
