About Ocean Shores Tavern

Ocean Shores Tavern, known locally as the Tav, is the neighbourhood pub on Rajah Road. It runs as a sports bar, burger bar and smokehouse, with two pool tables, big screens for sport and a beer garden out the back by the river. The pub takes functions from casual dinners to cocktail parties, and its team has hosted birthdays and weddings. The kitchen can cater for small groups through to gatherings of around 150 people. The Deck is the main function area, seating 40 or holding 60 standing. It suits long-table dinners and drinks as the sun goes down. The Gin Garden is a garden-style space with lounge seating and plenty of greenery, used for daytime gatherings and casual meetings. Neither space carries a hire fee. Food comes from Meat & Mingle, the in-house kitchen known for smoked meats and smash burgers. Its function menu is sold as shared boxes for groups of ten, and the team can tailor a menu to your taste and budget. AV facilities are on hand and hosts can play their own music.

Its a pub in a shopping center. Looks like the beer garden gets no use. They do have a kids area off the bistro which is a good idea. We went for lunch. Value for money with huge meals, although the wait was expensive.
