Correction (10 October 2026): an earlier version of this page listed places and details we could not stand behind. It has been rewritten from scratch: every place below was confirmed at two independent sources on 9 October 2026.
Four venues made the cut for this page, and only one of them calls itself a beer garden. That is Eaglemont Cellars, in Eaglemont rather than Ivanhoe. The other three, the Ivanhoe Hotel, Woodfire Cafe Pizzeria and L’Artigiano, are on Upper Heidelberg Road in Ivanhoe, and what we have for them is an alfresco-dining tag from the Australian Good Food Guide (AGFG), not a beer-garden description.
So this is a short list, and it is honest about what it holds. We could not read drink prices, tap lists or deal nights for any of the four, so none are printed. What you get is each venue’s address, the hours its own site gives where it gives them, and the outdoor detail on the record. If you’re keen on a cheeky one outside this arvo, ring first.
The quick picks
| If you’re after | Head to | Where |
|---|---|---|
| A pub with long listed hours and AGFG’s alfresco tag | Ivanhoe Hotel | 120 Upper Heidelberg Road, Ivanhoe |
| Dinner outdoors, with a BYO wine corkage fee stated | Woodfire Cafe Pizzeria | 199 Upper Heidelberg Road, Ivanhoe |
| A trattoria with lunch and dinner hours on its own site | L’Artigiano | 77 Upper Heidelberg Road, Ivanhoe |
| The only one that lists an outdoor beer garden | Eaglemont Cellars | 82-84 Silverdale Road, Eaglemont |
Ivanhoe Hotel — 120 Upper Heidelberg Road, Ivanhoe VIC 3079
The Ivanhoe Hotel’s own site gives its address as 120 Upper Heidelberg Rd and lists trading hours of 10:00 AM to 04:00 AM, 7 days a week. AGFG lists it with an ‘Alfresco Dining’ tag, which is a listing feature. We did not find a page describing a beer garden, heaters or a dog policy, so treat the outdoor side as something to ask about.
Garden: AGFG’s ‘Alfresco Dining’ tag is the only outdoor detail on the record for the hotel, so ask what that means before you book a table.
Woodfire Cafe Pizzeria — 199 Upper Heidelberg Road, Ivanhoe VIC 3079
Woodfire’s own site gives 199 Upper Heidelberg Road and lists the same hours every day of the week: 4:30pm to late, Monday to Sunday. AGFG tags it ‘Alfresco Dining’, ‘Child Friendly’ and ‘Takeaway’. The site also states a corkage fee for BYO wine: $15 for each BYO bottle, wine only. That is a rule about wine, so a mate planning to bring beer needs to ask first.
Garden: AGFG lists alfresco dining, and the site’s corkage line suits a table that brings its own bottle of wine.
L’Artigiano — 77 Upper Heidelberg Road, Ivanhoe VIC 3079
L’Artigiano’s own site gives 77 Upper Heidelberg Rd and lists Monday and Tuesday from 5pm to late. From Wednesday to Sunday it lists 12pm to 3pm, then 5pm to late. AGFG tags it ‘Alfresco Dining’, ‘Child Friendly’ and ‘Takeaway’. The older hours on its OpenStreetMap entry differ from the site, so the site’s hours are the ones used here.
Go on a: Wednesday to Sunday if you want an arvo session, because that is when the site lists a 12pm lunch opening.
Eaglemont Cellars — 82-84 Silverdale Road, Eaglemont VIC 3084
Eaglemont Cellars is at 82-84 Silverdale Road, Eaglemont, and that is the only listing here with a beer garden on its own site. The site has an ‘Outdoor Beer Garden’ section describing ‘Outdoor undercover seating to enjoy some fresh air!’, so the seating is described as undercover. It also lists live music, and its wording for happy hour is ‘Happy Hour is Every Hour’. We are not printing drink prices, opening hours or a gig calendar for the venue, so check its site before you go.
Garden: Undercover outdoor seating, per the venue’s own site; check its live music page for a night before you go, since the wording we read names no day.
Quick answers
Which of these has an actual beer garden?
Eaglemont Cellars is the only one whose own site describes an outdoor beer garden, with undercover seating. The Ivanhoe Hotel, Woodfire Cafe Pizzeria and L’Artigiano are AGFG alfresco-dining listings, which is a listing feature and not a beer-garden description.
Which of these is open latest?
The Ivanhoe Hotel’s site lists 10:00 AM to 04:00 AM, 7 days a week. Woodfire and L’Artigiano list evening hours that run to ’late’ with no closing time, and we are not printing hours for Eaglemont Cellars, so check its site.
Can I bring my own wine to any of them?
Woodfire Cafe Pizzeria’s site states a $15 corkage fee for each BYO bottle, wine only. We did not record a BYO policy for the other three, so ask them directly.
Are all four actually in Ivanhoe?
No. The Ivanhoe Hotel, Woodfire Cafe Pizzeria and L’Artigiano are on Upper Heidelberg Road in Ivanhoe. Eaglemont Cellars is on Silverdale Road in Eaglemont.
