About The Maylands Hotel

The Maylands Hotel is a century-old neighbourhood pub on Phillis Street in Maylands, looking out over Cruickshank Reserve. Inside it mixes a heritage front bar with art deco touches, and a functions manager looks after private events. There are five function spaces. The Lounge takes the most guests, with lounge, high bar and table seating for up to 120 cocktail guests, bifold windows to the reserve, a gas fire and direct access to the main bar. The Lower Dining room is the main restaurant space, seating 68 or taking 80 for cocktails. The Library has booth seating and open gas fires for 60 standing, and it can be paired with the restored Onyx Bar for up to 80. For seated dinners, the Ivy private dining room has high ceilings, glass chandeliers and room for 40, and it is accessible to all guests. The Onyx Bar on its own suits informal gatherings of up to 30, with a big screen TV and a dart board. Food leans on local seasonal produce, with cocktail platters and two set menus, and the chefs can adjust dishes for dietary needs. Each space carries its own minimum spend and room hire, which change between weekdays and weekends.
