There’s something unmistakably Melbourne about an afternoon spent by the Yarra, and Riverland Bar captures that feeling better than anywhere else. Tucked beneath Princes Bridge on Federation Wharf, this iconic riverside beer garden blends heritage bluestone vaults with a breezy, modern atmosphere that keeps locals and visitors coming back all year round. It’s relaxed, sun‑soaked and effortlessly social, the kind of place where you settle in for one drink and end up staying for three.
Riverland’s menu is built for good times. Think loaded fries, crispy share plates, burgers stacked high, and fresh salads that hit the spot on warm days. The food is unfussy, flavour‑forward and designed to pair perfectly with a cold drink in hand. Whether you’re grabbing a quick bite before a game at the MCG or settling in for a long lunch by the water, the menu keeps things easy, approachable and reliably delicious.
The drinks list leans into summer with ice‑cold tap beers, classic cocktails, spritzes, wines and seasonal signatures. And this year, Riverland is pouring something special: our Hawker Market Mule — now on tap for summer.
Bright, zesty and ginger‑driven, it brings a refreshing market‑stall punch that fits seamlessly into Riverland’s riverside vibe. Crisp, citrusy and built for sunny afternoons, it’s set to become one of the bar’s go‑to warm‑weather orders.
With its unbeatable location, relaxed energy and a menu made for sharing, Riverland Bar remains one of Melbourne’s most beloved spots to unwind by the water. Whether it’s post‑work drinks, weekend catch‑ups or a spontaneous riverside session, Riverland delivers that classic Melbourne feeling; and this summer, the Hawker Market Mule is part of the story.
