About The Grange Hotel
The Grange Hotel is a heritage-listed pub from the 1860s on the Esplanade at Grange, directly across from the jetty and the beach. Inside, the old building has been fitted out with modern decor, a bistro and a front bar. Functions are held upstairs in The Balcony & Bar, a bright first-floor room with uninterrupted views of the coast. It has a private bar, its own bathrooms, a large TV for photos or slideshows and an in-house PA, and a lift makes it easy for guests with limited mobility. The upstairs room takes up to 110 people for a cocktail party or 50 for a seated meal. Larger sit-down groups can use the downstairs restaurant, which also faces the sea and can be arranged around a set menu. Food comes from the hotel kitchen, which sources most of its produce from South Australian suppliers. Seated groups choose a two or three course set menu, while cocktail parties of 50 or more pick from three platter selections, and smaller groups can build their own from individual platters. Drinks run on bronze, silver or gold packages of three to five hours, or on consumption. Music plays through the house system, and any band or entertainer needs management approval first. The room suits engagements, weddings, birthdays, bridal and baby showers, hens nights and work functions. A $250 deposit holds the date, and guests must leave the upstairs room by midnight.

The view of the sunset over the pier were breathtaking. The food was good, tasty. The service was amazing. Prices a bit high but that's the issue everywhere now.
