Waterside Public Bar
Located on the ground floor of The Waterside Hotel, this Melbourne CBD bar is where locals and visitors alike gather for cold beers, great flavours, and warm service.

The Beer Garden
A relaxed open-air beer garden in the heart of Melbourne CBD, offering a welcoming space to enjoy drinks away from the main bar. Ideal for casual catch-ups, sunny afternoons, and alfresco dining surrounded by views of lush greenery and the levels above.
Located on Flinders Street, the Waterside is a walk-in friendly bar made for easy city meet-ups.
