About The Seaton Hotel

The Seaton Hotel is a family-owned pub on Tapleys Hill Road in Seaton, in Adelaide's west. It pairs a bistro, sports bar and beer garden with several areas that can be set aside for group bookings and functions, and Seaton train station sits beside the carpark. The Palm Deck is the outdoor entertaining area, dressed in white timber, palms and canvas umbrellas, and it seats 50 or holds 70 standing. A covered beer garden takes 60 standing, so an afternoon party can stay outside whatever the weather. Indoors, the dining room seats 100 for a sit-down meal and the Tapleys Room seats 70 or holds 100 standing. Across all the areas the hotel caters for groups from 10 to 200 people. Function food comes from the pub's own kitchen team. Platters cover sandwiches, hot pastries, squid, arancini, sliders, pizzas and charcuterie, while the set menu brings a shared entrée, an alternate-drop main and a dessert. Packages are tailored to the group, from a casual cocktail menu to a full sit-down dinner. Each booking carries a minimum spend agreed with the venue manager, and any unused balance is charged at the end.

Great spot. The indubitably impeccable Issy is an asset to this establishment. Made sure the beers were cold and espressos were on point. Recommended the Seaton Hotel to every person. Be there or be square
