Melbourne Cup Day at Westside

Forget the trackside hustle - we’re keeping Cup Day casual at Westside Ale Works. Join us for a relaxed afternoon of cold craft beers, delicious eats, and good company.

Here’s what’s on tap:

🍕 Pizza specials, BBQ bites & grazing boards

🍺 Seasonal craft releases + bottomless beer & soft drink packages available

🎥 The race live on the big screen

🎲 Cup sweepstakes, pub games & plenty of prizes

👒 Best-dressed prizes (think fun, cheeky, and a little weird - just how we like it)

It’s the perfect mix of community spirit, great beer, and Cup Day action - without the city chaos. Bring your mates, dress up (or down), and spend the afternoon with us.

Info: - Guests check in, grab wristbands.
- Bar open for both bottomless and regular service.

Drinks are available from the bar, with unlimited core range beers and soft drinks included.

Info: The afternoon will include a sweepstake draw and the announcement of nominees for the “Best Dressed” competition.
