Waterloo Bay Hotel

Waterloo Bay Hotel is a broad, family-friendly venue in Wynnum, Brisbane, combining the Fig Restaurant and Beer Garden with accommodation, a sports bar, gaming facilities and a bottle shop. It is positioned a short stroll from the waterfront, with plenty of seating and a casual setup suited to an easy meal, a drink or an afternoon of live sport.

The Fig Restaurant and Beer Garden is the main choice for dining, offering table service, ample seating and high chairs for younger guests. The website lists a range of weekly food specials, including chicken parmys on Mondays, wings on Wednesdays, rump on Thursdays, surf and turf on Sundays and a Sunday brekkie special. Families can also make use of the kids menu and play area, which opens from 11am through to the end of dinner service. Friday’s kids-eat-free offer is another family-focused feature, although current conditions should be checked with the venue.

For sports fans, the Marlin Bar shows sporting events live and loud on large screens. It serves beers, wine and cocktails, and also has KENO and TAB facilities, weekly promotions and raffles. The venue’s Jackpot Lounge provides another gaming option, while Cellarbrations at Waterloo Bay Hotel operates as an on-site bottle shop. Regular events add to the pub atmosphere, with trivia at the Fig Restaurant, poker nights, Jag the Joker and meat tray raffles among the listed activities.

There is also accommodation on site, described by the venue as simple, affordable and convenient, making Waterloo Bay Hotel useful for visitors wanting to stay near the waterfront as well as locals looking for a relaxed meal or live sport. With a children’s play area, family dining, a beer garden and dedicated sports facilities, it is best suited to families, casual groups and sports-minded pub-goers rather than a quiet, intimate dining occasion. The venue is at 75 Berrima Street, Wynnum.
