We're delighted to welcome you back to the Daylesford Hotel, where country charm meets warm hospitality in the heart of our town. After a brief renovation, we’re excited to release the first stage of our reopening. Whether you're stopping by for a meal and a beer in the public bar, a special occasion dinner in the Bistro, or enjoying a spritz on the balcony, you’ll be welcomed by the same team from behind Daylesford’s much-loved Cliffy’s Emporium, now bringing their signature warmth and expertise to this grand two-storey hotel.

PUBLIC BAR

The Public Bar is the lively heart of the hotel, where locals and visitors alike gather. The perfect spot for a pint after work, a pub meal with the family, or a spritz while catching up with friends. Cosy and warm in winter, air-conditioned and cool in summer. Order and pay at the counter, and our friendly team will take care of the rest.

Prefer some fresh air? Enjoy your meal out in the beer garden or balcony, where you can soak up the sunshine or enjoy the sunset (weather permitting). It’s first come, first served, so no bookings - just good food, great drinks, and the kind of atmosphere that brings everyone together.

Wednesday - Monday 12pm - 10pm.
Tuesday 4pm - 10pm (closed for lunch)
No reservations

BISTRO

A step up from the everyday. A space made for those times when you want something just a bit more special. Think soft lighting, relaxed charm, and an intimate atmosphere. Full table service means you can sit back while we take care of the rest. While welcoming to all, the Bistro is a space designed with grown-up gatherings in mind, ideal for indulging in a leisurely meal in a relaxed, composed environment. Bookings recommended, with a $40 per person minimum spend to secure your table.

Dinner Thursday - Sunday from 6pm
