The Orrong Hotel

Pub dining$$

Dating to around 1940, this art deco pub was sensitively restored in 2021. The original timber front bar sits handsomely in the retro-styled corner parlour, making the idea of lifting an elbow to drink an icy lager extremely appealing. Important to note: the old coolroom is now a poolroom.

The very model of a friendly local, the Orrong has alluring happy hours with $5 beers, $25 express lunches, a steak night on Thursdays with a meat raffle, and an all-day rotating Sunday roast of meat and (usually more than three) veg for $28. Classic counter meals are balanced by contemporary dishes such as tacos and eggplant parmigiana.

Best for: An all-are-welcome attitude.
