Favourite Beer Gardens in Melbourne

What makes a good beer garden..

A good beer garden has a comfortable atmosphere with weather-resistant furniture, adequate shade and lighting, and welcoming entertainment like games or live music, creating a sociable community space. It offers a strong selection of drinks, a simple but delicious food menu, and features friendly, efficient service and a family-friendly environment, making guests feel relaxed and encouraging them to stay longer.

Beer gardens are where we meet friends and family, so they have to be comfortable and accommodating.

Beer gardens have been around forever in Melbourne, so if its open-air and serves drinks, its a beer garden.

Some of Melbourne's favorite beer gardens include the Garden State Hotel for its vibrant city center atmosphere, The Standard in Fitzroy for its craft beer and cult-following parmas, and Welcome To Thornbury, a popular food truck park with a vast outdoor space.
