About Queen's Terrace @ Queen of the West

Queen of the West is a long-running pub on Pakington Street in Geelong West, first opened in 1856. It has a front bar with sport on the screens, a large beer garden, live music on weekends and a menu of pub classics, woodfired pizza and charcoal grill dishes. Queen's Terrace is its main function space. It has an exposed roof, hanging greenery and a view through to the beer garden, plus a private bar for your group. The room can be cleared for a stand-up party of up to 150 or set with tables for 40 seated. You can style it to a theme, and there is a screen for photo slideshows. Food is served as canapé packages built for mingling, with options like pumpkin arancini, pork belly bites, pulled beef sliders and popcorn chicken. Function pizzas can be added by the tray. For drinks, choose a two-hour package, a bar tab with your own limits and drink choices, or let guests buy their own. Bring your own DJ or acoustic act if you want live entertainment. The pub also offers the Pakington Room, with its own bar for 60 seated or 100 standing, and a semi-private section of the beer garden. Birthdays, engagement parties and corporate events are all regular bookings.

Front bar service and atmosphere is great. Really friendly hosts and spot on vibe. Beer garden not so much. Large area, bit airless on warm arvo. Prompt food delivery even though busy, and tasty.
