It's the great pub of the local area. Enjoyable for all sorts. On a nice day the outdoor patio at the front is a great place to people watch.

Iconic (get a Squishy or a Squashy) Bakery that you'll want to grab one or two lunches at during your stay. We recommend the sausage roll, salad and a coffee all in for about $14 as the best BFYB eat in the area. :)

The absolute BEST European inspired sandwiches outside of Melbourne with fantastic Everyday coffee and vibes too! The big sandwiches are easily shared between two or fitting a big appetite. Tucked down an alley off the main street.

Sightseeing

Walking Barwon Heads? You'll want to make it to the Bluff to take in the near 270 degree views. Worth the moderate effort required to scale the stairs and inclined hills. Also 2/3rds up is some tables with great views - bring some food and drink. ;)

Right at the heads of the Barwon, this beach is always a safe and easygoing place for some beach time without the waves. You'll find lots of locals with kids there safely enjoying themselves. During the busier months you can rent stand up paddle boards (and similar) there too.

City/town information

Worthy of a half day trip. A beautiful old historical town with some great easy walks and small (but nice) shopping aspect.

On your way here you'll roll past some great wineries and distillers. When you get here it's a great little town with some good cafes and a great pub. Known for it’s Portarlington Mussels - if that’s your thing too. :)

I call it surf suburbia - big history in surfing brands there with lots of local shops and eateries of different types to enjoy. The walk from front beach all the way around to Jan Juc is quite easy and spectacular on a lovely day.
