Riverview Hotel

Midweek pub meal at this busy little local.
Food was hot, fresh and prompt. Highly recommend the chicken burger.
Wait staff were friendly, efficient and coped well during a busy service.
Thanks for a great treat meal.

Strangely enough a hotel in Australia is typically foremost a pub and not necessarily a place to stay. Hence it makes no sense to sign stars to the "rooms". The food is very good, particularly given the remote location. The only downside is that there usually is only one vegetarian mains, which sometimes is excellent and sometimes not my first choice (the menu is changing reasonably frequently), but then there is also a veggie burger, to make up for those occasions. Good destination in this otherwise culinarily challenged region.

Lovely staff and amazing food. The cheese burger was the best burger I’ve ever had (yes big call). Simple but very yummy. The beef baddy is fresh and flavourful. Also the best hospitality from all the staff. I would give it a 6 start if I could.

Happy Australia Day 🇦🇺
Dinner with family 11 of us.
Prompt food served in great time. Good servings. Outstanding Satay Chicken Skewers tonight 10/10 from me.

The Riverview is situated in a great spot on the river. Dining on the large deck, or inside. You can bring your dog onto the deck and it can sit beside you.
The food is typical pub food, I recommend the fish and chips .
I always make a point of visiting here when I’m down from Melbourne.

Stayed free camping behind the pub. Must be self-contained. There are not many spots and no pre booking. Great food.

Perfect location for a counter lunch on the outside deck in the winter sunshine.
Five spice Pork belly, Lamb shanks and Seafood Risotto were all perfect.
Great friendly service from the lady behind the jump!
Highly recommend 👌

The new owners have done a great job fixing all that was wrong with the bistro in the past. The meal was great and the service perfect.

We organised an 80th birthday celebration for my dad at the Riverview Hotel recently. It was a wonderful day, the staff were great, the venue was spacious and welcoming and communication with the hotel while organising the event was excellent. Thanks to the whole team for leaving us with lots of special memories of the day.

Probably the best steak I have ever had. I had steak 3 nights in a row. Very nice food. Good vibe and friendly people.

Burger so good. Burger the best. Burger is life. Best burger ever. Mmmmmmmmmmm. Burger 10/10. Cheeeeseburger was the greatest experience in my mortal life, and will never be beaten.

Fantastic food for lunch. The staff were so friendly and helpful. Recommend to anyone staying in the Venus Bay area.

We ate here Thursday night. Our expectations weren’t high coming here for the first time, however they really delivered.
The service was excellent and the food was just what we needed … and there was plenty of it! My goodness, I’ve never had blackstrap so tender.
Compliments to the chef, and staff, especially the gentleman who wore many hats that night, we see you 🙏🏼
Be sure to book as it gets very busy!

Seperate fryer for shoe string fries! Celiacs wife of very happy 😃🤘🙌 great food and staff too!

Seriously the best tasting pie I've had. Steak and stout pie, plus a schooner of the stout. Great price and friendly staff.

We called in with friends and kids after a beach visit at Walkerville - everyone was so fried staff and patrons - we had a quiet drink and a game of pool before hitting the road again. We have been told the meals are great too so will be back again (hopefully soon)!

Great location. Friendly staff. Excellent food menu selection for dining inside or out. Very well cooked meals. Great selection of drinks on tap & from the shelf. Clean & safe environment. Lots of parking outside. Highly recommend a visit if in the area or for a nice drive from towns around the region.

Was a favourite haunt back in the younger surfing days, hasn’t changed a lot, but great food & service for dinner…

We all had a great meal and a really nice night out. 8 of us and everyone was very happy with their meal. We will be back.

Cracking local pub. Great service and incredible food. Was there two days in a row.
