About Two Buoys

Two Buoys is a restaurant, wine bar and cocktail bar on Point Nepean Road in Dromana, directly across from the foreshore and Port Phillip. Food is built around shared plates, and the wine list leans on Mornington Peninsula producers, backed by a cellar of around 600 bottles. Functions use the restaurant, the cocktail bar and the weatherproof, heated decks with views over the bay. Cocktail parties fit up to 138 guests across the inside and the decks, while seated dinners run from 10 to 90. For a party, canapé packages start at $25 per person with a minimum bar tab, beginning at $1,000 on the Sunset Deck beside the cocktail bar for around 30 guests. Larger groups take the decks and bar together, and exclusive use of the venue for five hours is available on a minimum spend for groups over 25. Seated share-style dinners start at $45 per person, with a $55 option that adds oysters, prawns and steak, and dessert can be added for $10. Menus can be adjusted for dietary needs. Local acoustic musicians can be booked, or the in-house PA and small stage suit a DJ or band. Weddings and engagements are quoted after a free planning meeting, so send an enquiry to start.
