About The Duck Inn
The Duck Inn is a long-standing pub on Main Road in Coromandel Valley, on the edge of the Adelaide Hills. Inside there is a front bar, an open-plan dining room with fireplaces and leather chesterfields, and a covered deck facing the trees. Functions can take one of eight areas. The Bar Atrium beside the main bar suits 15 seated or 25 standing, while the Restaurant Atrium holds 25 seated or 40 standing and opens straight onto the deck. For bigger numbers, the deck on its own takes 60 seated or 120 standing, and the front bar handles around 80 on their feet. Combine the front bar with the bar deck and the pub can host up to 150 for a stand-up party, or 80 seated. Food comes from the pub kitchen. Sit-down groups choose an alternate-drop set menu of two or three courses, and cocktail events order platters such as arancini, satay skewers, sliders, pies and a cheese board, with low gluten, vegan and vegetarian options marked. Drinks run as a timed package, a bar tab with a limit you set, or a cash bar. The team helps with styling on the day, and the deck has heating and fans so it can be used through winter and summer alike.
