About Largs Pier Hotel

The Largs Pier Hotel has stood on the Esplanade at Largs Bay since 1882, its arched verandahs facing the beach and St Vincent Gulf. Inside, warm timber, swinging ceiling fans and Art Deco details carry through the bars and restaurant. The main function space is the Pier Restaurant, which has its own bar, an open fireplace and French doors onto the Pier Deck. Booked together they hold around 175 for a cocktail party or 80 to 100 seated, and the deck has a fully enclosed awning, glass surrounds and heating. Smaller groups can take the Directors Room, a heritage room with a feature fireplace and AV, for up to 60 standing or 50 seated. Dixons Bar is a lounge-style cocktail space for 50, the Pier Deck on its own takes 50, and Room 1 on the first floor seats 10 beside a balcony over the seafront. Food ranges from canapé platters and grazing tables to plated set menus. Two and three-course set menus for groups of 30 or more start at $48 per person, and wedding menus start at $80 per person. Drinks packages cover tap beer, cider, wine, soft drinks and coffee from $50 per person for three hours, or a bar tab can be set to a budget. For weddings, the team can also help with styling, photography, entertainment and a ceremony space.
