About Morphett Arms Hotel
The Morphett Arms Hotel is a neighbourhood pub on Morphett Road at Glengowrie, in Adelaide's south-west. It has five areas to book and an events team that helps match the space, menu and drinks to the occasion. The Lounge Bar mixes high bar tables, long benches and booths, and its floor-to-ceiling glass doors slide open to the outdoors. It holds up to 190, and an area of the right size is reserved for your group unless your numbers come close to filling it. The Courtyard covers 160 square metres over several levels under a large shade tree, with a big curved screen for sport. It takes up to 135 guests, with indoor seating next door able to be added. For something private, the Dridan Room is a closed-off space with a TV, a pull-down screen for presentations and its own sound. It seats 22 with the doors closed or 34 open, and takes 30 to 40 cocktail style, with a $150 hire fee if fewer than 15 book it exclusively. Catering runs from pizza, pastries, sushi and antipasto platters to cold, hot and premium canapés and dessert platters, with a $20 per person minimum for groups of 20 or more. Drinks can go on a tab, be subsidised for guests, or be bought individually.

How do drinks work?
You can set up a drinks tab with a money or time limit, offer subsidised drinks where guests pay part of each drink, or let guests buy their own.

Yes. The Dridan Room is closed off from the rest of the pub and comes with a TV, a presentation screen and sound. A $150 hire fee applies if fewer than 15 guests book it exclusively.

Went with the family for a meal after footy. Food was bang on and the staff were fantastic, enjoyed watching the game on the big screen out in the Courtyard under the tree. Recommend for a good feed and atmosphere.
