What an amazing winter experience at the Igloos in the Wharf Hotel! $55 pp and it was such good value! Also recommend going during happy hour as drinks were so reasonably priced. Our server Lola was amazing so friendly and helpful, went above and beyond for us :) in fact all staff were so welcoming! we would recommend this to anyone if Melbourne ❤️

The wharf hotel is one of my favourite pubs along the river being a Southbank local I have tried most. It has everything, views, such warm genuine service (Rory is the absolute best), scrumptious delicious food with generous portions at great prices and now they have winter igloos! This was my first winter igloo experience. To say I loved it would be an understatement cause within 10 minutes I was relaxed and my stressful work week was beginning to vanish from my mind. Within 30 minutes I was in a tranquil peaceful toasty igloo enjoying a special date night to the fullest waited on hand and foot. Highly recommend trying the winter igloos experience or just coming for a bite and a drink, you will not be disappointed.

A great experience with the family, really wonderful service, yummy food and awesome environment! Lola was taking care of us all night and made the experience extra special for us! My mum already wants to come back!

Tonight was our second time at The Wharf igloos. When we arrived we were greeted by the amazing Kylie, we were fortunate enough to have her look after us on our first visit. Tonight she wasn’t working with the igloos, however she changed her schedule to look after us! Kylie is absolutely amazing and she made our experience one that we will talk about for years to come! Highly recommend and if you are lucky enough to have Kylie look after you it will be an experience you won’t forget! Thank you Kylie for making our night amazing! 😍

A Mother’s Day Experience We’ll Never Forget! My mum and I went out for a special Mother’s Day lunch and were absolutely blown away from start to finish. We had the roast of the day—pork—and it was incredible. The crackling was next-level perfection… crispy, golden, and oh-so-satisfying! But what made the experience even more memorable was the incredible thoughtfulness and generosity shown by the team. We were each gifted stunning Mother’s Day presents—luxurious bath and body products and a gorgeous tea cup adorned with love hearts. These weren’t just gifts; they were heartfelt gestures that made us feel truly valued. And to top it all off, we were treated to an absolutely divine lemon cheesecake—honestly the best we’ve ever had! A special shoutout to Kylie for her outstanding service. What a gorgeous soul! Warm, attentive, and genuinely caring—she made us feel so welcome. Her mum has clearly done an amazing job raising such a lovely young lady. Kylie added a truly personal touch that made the day even more meaningful. Thank you to the whole team for creating such a heartwarming and delicious experience. We left with full bellies and even fuller hearts. Highly recommend! Warmest regards Kelly & Lenore
