About Beer Garden @ Mile End Hotel
The Mile End Hotel has been pulling beers at 30 Henley Beach Road since 1841, on the western edge of the Adelaide CBD. Inside, an art deco fit-out nods to the pub's long history, and behind it sits a large courtyard beer garden. The beer garden can be booked as a whole for big celebrations, holding up to 190 people standing or 176 seated. It mixes open sky with undercover sections, so a long afternoon can carry on into the evening. Smaller groups can take one part of it. The Alfresco section has booths and a fire pit for cooler nights, the North section sits closest to the bar and the LED screen, and the South section has room to spread out, with each holding roughly 60 to 100 guests. For food, the kitchen sends out platters such as party pies, arancini, satay skewers, dumplings and churros, priced by the tray. Sit-down groups can choose a shared set menu from $53 per person or an alternate drop menu from $58, and dietary needs are handled when arranged ahead. Drinks can run on a standard or premium package for two to four hours, a bar tab you set and review during the night, or a cash bar. Packages need at least 20 guests, and add-ons include a spirits upgrade and a spritz on arrival.

Not the friendliest of welcomes we ever had, but everyone at times has a crummy day. Despite the website stating "Restaurant", this venue doesn't take table orders but rather expects orders at the bar or via QR code. Bes…
