Happy-hour bevvies are a heavenly experience at this beachside bar. Order up a fruity concoction and indulge in the serene water views.
Picture a watering hole where sexy cocktails match serene ocean views, and wicked DJ beats are lapped up by feel-good bar-goers. This is the lure of Pier One.
Set smack bang on the sand at Glenelg, this spot attracts a crowd of carefree drinkers who willingly surrender themselves to the idyllic beachfront atmosphere.
A generous happy hour flows from 5-7pm every day, offering a selection of chilled bevvies which can be enjoyed at the sprawling outdoor tables. If beer is your poison, there's a good range on tap, including Carlton Draught, Becks and West End Draught.
However, if your beachside bar experience wouldn't be complete without a fruity concoction, turn to the cocktail menu. For something altogether tropical, try the Mango Weiss Bar: it mixes fresh mango and passionfruit with Malibu, mango liqueur and fresh cream.
Aside from the cocktails, barflies can tuck into such tempting nibbles as oysters, crisp-based pizzas and seasoned potato wedges.
DJs man the decks on Friday and Saturday nights, spinning a mix of house and top-40 chart hits. Meanwhile, Sunday afternoons offer up live band performances. Grab your spot on the dance floor early, as the space often becomes jam-packed with perky partygoers enjoying the blithesome beachside vibe.
