Birthday Party Venues in Somerville

Choosing the Right Birthday Party Venue

Somerville's Station Street pub, the Somerville Hotel, gives birthday groups two spaces away from the front bar. The pub has kept its heritage brick wall and timber bar top, and a family bistro and sports bar sit alongside.

It is a handy choice for families in the Red Hill & Western Port region who want a local pub feel.

Two ways to run a Somerville birthday at the hotel:

A big standing party: the enclosed Beer Garden holds up to 100 cocktail-style, with booth seats and a high ceiling.
A birthday with the big game on: the Beer Garden has a big screen for a match or a slideshow.
A family dinner: the Alfresco room seats up to 40, or takes 50 standing.
Natural light by day: big windows in the Alfresco room suit a lunchtime gathering.
Any season: the Alfresco room has air conditioning and fans for summer and heaters for winter.

Cocktail packages run for five hours and bundle room hire, roaming security, staff, platters and a bar tab.

Seated guests are served alternately from two choices per course.
Platters can be added to a package or ordered separately.
Savoury grazing tables suit a standing party in the Beer Garden.
A sweet table can stand in for, or sit beside, the birthday cake.

Beer Garden or Alfresco room for your party

Choose the Beer Garden for a 30th or 40th with a long guest list and drinks flowing.
Choose the Alfresco room for a semi-private sit-down off the bistro.
The two packages differ in guest count, platters and bar tab, so pick by numbers.
The functions team shapes the package around your headcount.
