Shark Bay Hotel — Hotel in Denham

Shark bay hotel.

We visited this fun traditional Aussie hotel (pub) a few times while in town.

First time we were hungry and keen for dinner but a little early and the kitchen hadn’t opened yet. We swore to return.

We had dinner the following night along with some fresh beer to wash it down.

We had the local shark bay sandwhiting grilled with chips and salad. So tasty. The fish was amazingly fresh, delicate and cooked perfectly. Great chips too which seems like a standard in this part of the country. The food came out super fast with a smile. The place was busy being a Friday night, quite a few locals and tourists in this fun place. Live band also due to start soon after we left.

We returned again the next day after a trip to dirk hartog island. We enjoyed a few more drinks and the atmosphere.

I can recommend this place and...

I am French but have been living in Australia for 5 years. I went in the pub during a trip with my brother who was visiting from overseas and stopped at the hotel for a cold drink after a long drive. The person behind the bar refused to serve my brother because he supposedly didn’t hold the right vaccine certificate, which however allowed him in the country, the state and every other places we went to. The lady then was very reluctant to serve me, she was forced to when I firmly told her I was Australian and hold the right paperwork. I stayed friendly but the atmosphere was very unpleasant. It was hostile, discriminatory and expensive. The town is lovely and I would recommend stopping there, but maybe try the bakery instead or every other place where people were...

Billed as the most westerly hotel in Western Australia. They have a fun pub and restaurant that we dined at as well. The setup that makes for a great spot for evening sundowner and meal in Denham. Located just across from the jetties, the bar is right smack in the middle of town and convenient to visit from pretty much everywhere.

Fairly typical lineup of pub drinks and food menu, plenty of indoor and outdoor seating as well. We were served up a nice order of grilled sea bream and fried calamari both with fries and salad. Orders were reasonably priced, prepared timely, good plate presentation and quality food. All was enjoyed, would happy eat and have another round of drinks here next...
