THE MONA Is everything

Good food, cold beers and feel-good vibes, Mona Vale Hotel is your go-to local where everyone’s welcome and no one’s in a rush. Whether you’re catching up with mates, wrangling the kids for a cruisy family lunch or settling in for live tunes and a cocktail or two, The Mona’s got the space, the flavour and the vibe for every kind of good time.

This isn’t your average pub. It’s the kind of place that does weekends right. Think sunshine in the courtyard, pool tables inside, music in the background, and a relaxed crowd that knows how to enjoy themselves.

The Good - Time Local

Classic pub feels with a fresh, local twist. The kitchen is serving up all your favourites, schnitties, burgers, wood-fired pizzas and share plates, alongside seasonal specials that keep things interesting. Add a frosty beer, a glass of wine or one of their house cocktails, and you’re winning.

The courtyard is a sunny spot to post up with a group, while the indoor spaces are perfect for chill dinners, pool comps, or impromptu celebrations. No dress code, no pressure, just good people and great times.

Bring the Fam, No Stress: Sunday Family Day

Think pubs are just for grown-ups? Not this one. The Mona has something for everyone, big and small. There’s a dedicated kids’ playground in the beer garden, a kids’ menu that keeps even the pickiest eaters happy, and plenty of room for little legs to move. It’s easy, it’s local, and it’s the kind of place where no one minds when the kids get a little noisy.

Sundays are especially family-friendly, with a line-up of kids’ events over the coming months, from petting zoos and magicians to face painting and more. First up is the Petting Zoo on Sunday 28th September. Keep an eye on our website for the full schedule and details.

From Lazy Lunches to Late Night Vibes.

Saturdays are made for a slow roll into the afternoon. Start with lunch, stick around for a few drinks, and kick back while local bands and DJs bring the tunes. As the sun goes down, The Mona picks up the pace with live music and a buzzing atmosphere that keeps the party going without the city crowds.

Ben’s Bakery

Fresh this spring, Ben’s Bakery has launched a brand-new menu packed with seasonal flavours and handmade creations. From indulgent treats to wholesome favourites, it’s all about celebrating the best of the season.

Opening from 8am daily, the bakery has quickly become a local go-to, whether it’s parents grabbing a coffee after the school run, early risers starting their day, or anyone looking for something tasty before the pub gets buzzing. With inventive specials and a warm community feel, Ben’s Bakery makes The Mona an all-day favourite.
