For the last twelve months, all I've heard out of my boyfriend's mouth is 'Oh, I can't wait to go…read morehave another Westernport Parma'. I am pleased to announced that he had it again and it didn't disappointed. I'm displeased to announce that he has started going on about how good it's going to be to get another one in January 2016 *groan* I love this pub. It really caters to everyone with it's large menu, varied dining areas and huge selection of drinks from the bar. There are big name acts that roll through town to play gigs to entertain the older crowd, and there is a small play centre to entertain the youngest in the crowd. There is inside seating and outside seating (with heaters for the colder months). The staff are friendly and really welcoming to the tourists, which might not be surprising for most but I've stepped into some small town pubs who want nothing to do with you if you're not a local. Definitely not the case here. The dining room caters to large and small groups but it's always best to book ahead for groups larger than 6 so that you can get your hands on the huge table designed to fit roughly 20. Enjoy! I know I have over the past two years.

Every now and then you find a pub in a small town that is an absolute gem. The Westernport is in…read moresuch a great location on the waterfront in San Remo and it's surprisingly large. There's a huge bistro offering a generous menu. You'll pay around $25 for a meal but you'll get a big serving plated beautiful and the food is delicious. The boys in our group all got the HUGE Westernport parma and the girls had to listen to their groans of delight as they polished them off. I opted for the salt & pepper calamari because I saw it being plated up as I was waiting to order and it looked divine. And it wasn't just presented beautifully, it was SO tasty. Light and fresh, no chewy or stringy bits, and just like the parma the serving was so generous I couldn't finish it. There's a large bar and beer garden too. Pints are about $10 and spirits are $8.50. And bands play every Saturday night including big names such as The Beautiful Girls and 360. If you're heading to Phillip Island for a weekend away I definitely recommend trying the Westernport for lunch or dinner and admiring the scenery.
