The Mosaic Hotel has opened a new all-weather beer garden at the Footy Park Precinct in the heart of West Lakes. 

Blending contemporary architecture with a relaxed coastal feel, the launch of the Mosaic beer garden marks another milestone in the transformation of the former Football Park site.  

“The vision for the Footy Park Precinct has always been to create a place where people can come together to meet, eat and play and perhaps reminisce about the iconic moments that took place on that ground,” said SANFL CEO Darren Chandler who’s played a key role in developing the Precinct.  

“This new beer garden is another great addition – a flexible, year-round space designed for everything from casual family meals to watching live sport on the big screen. 

“We really hope that families who travel to SANFL’s High Performance Centre can enjoy a meal in the beer garden while their kids are training on the oval or even practice their swing on the X-Golf simulators.   

“The goal all along for this precinct is to be the premier entertainment and sporting destination in Adelaide’s west and we hope the local community get the most out of these facilities as well,” he said.  

To celebrate the launch, the Mosaic Hotel has introduced monthly Sunday Sessions featuring live music. There’s also $20 Schnitzel Nights on Wednesdays, $20 Pizzas, all-day dining on weekends, plus Siren-to-Siren Happy Hour during AFL night matches and generous Happy Hour specials every afternoon.  

“We’re really proud with how this beer garden compliments the existing bar and our relaxed and casual atmosphere,” said Mosaic Hotel’s General Manager Jeff Dickson. 

“The award-winning team at Studio 9 have designed a space that shifts seamlessly with the seasons. In the cooler months there’s a Vergola roof and heaters to keep things cosy while the footy is on. The menu has casual comfort in mind – think classic pub favourites, pizza, salads and share plate offerings for relaxed group dining,” he said.   

Owned by SANFL, Footy Park Precinct includes premium function spaces located in the SANFL High Performance Centre, indoor X-Golf simulators, Hey Caddy mini golf, and the Mosaic Hotel and beer garden.
