Tried this pub over the road from the beach as it doesn't take reservations and a lot of Byron restaurants are booked up too far in advance. We don't normally choose big pubs as they tend to be a bit noisy for our taste. We are glad we did though as although a really big pub with nearly all tables taken by 6pm on a Tuesday night we found a little area near the shack that was quieter than the others, although you could still enjoy the live music.
The guy looking after our section (Leon) was fantastic. He told us about the new table service app so we didn't have to leave our table to order. He did a great job of selling a few meals to us when our preferred options had sold out. Unfortunately our drink order got lost so we were waiting 30 mins. Leon came over with our drinks, an apology and offered us a comllimentary round to make up for it. The menu is big enough with choices for everyone (pizza/burgers/meat/seafood). The kids menu has some healthy choices too (not all just chips). The vibe is relaxed and friendly. I'd highly recommend for family dinner. Looked good for adults too.

I really don’t like adding poor reviews, but my experience at the Beach Hotel Byron Bay a week or so after an apparent covid clean and Covid scare was deplorable.

In over an hour and a half I did not witness the tables and chairs being wiped down and sanitised once in between customers.

Customers we asked to seat them selves and dive into a seat and table as not to miss out on a spot as people left.

Food was straight out of the Bidvest van no disrespect to the company that supplies food to venues... but it was extremely average for the price you pay.

Not to mention lining up with out spacing at the bar.

If an out break happens it will be at this venue.

Re think attending this pub... there are loads of amazing places in Byron to visit.

Great live music venue, sweet ocean views in the daylight hours and there’s now a new (since last time I visited town) big outdoor teepee with fairy lights that give shelter while adding hella atmosphere!
