WHAT’S ON

ALWAYS SOMETHING HAPPENING HERE AT THE BAY.

With our weekly lineup of pub classic specials, trivia every Monday, the upstairs sports bar showing all major sports games & matches, and live music every weekend, The Bay Hotel has something for everyone.

A three-story building with ornate white architecture on the upper levels and a brick facade at the ground level, with outdoor seating and string lights in front, and a sign reading 'The Bay Hotel' at the entrance.

A proper locals pub.

The Bay Hotel is more than a place to grab a pint, it’s a living piece of Mornington’s story.

Set in the heart of the main street, this fully restored 1889 heritage building once housed the town’s Commercial Bank. Today, it stands as a proud reminder of Mornington’s rich history, beachside charm, and vibrant pub culture.

Blending classic Australian pub design with warm Irish hospitality, The Bay brings together all the elements of a proper pub—great food, cold pints, open fires, live sport, music and a genuine sense of community.

Whether you’re here for a long lunch, live music, the footy, or a nightcap by the bar. The Bay is a place where stories are shared, locals gather, and new traditions begin.

STAY IN THE LOOP

We promise we’ll be in touch for exciting reasons only.
