About Victory Hotel

Perched high on Old Sellicks Hill, this coastal pub pairs panoramic gulf sunsets with an unexpectedly cellar-driven dining experience. Southern coast regulars head up the hill for unhurried dinners overlooking Sellicks Beach and Silver Sands—especially when the afternoon light breaks across the water. The kitchen outpaces typical counter meals with plates like slow-cooked lamb shoulder roulade and crisp crumbed fish, served alongside an encyclopedic South Australian bottle list. For group get-togethers, tables tuck down into the century-old subterranean working wine cellar. Snag an outdoor seat before dusk, soak in the ocean vista, and follow the road signs around the Sellicks Hill roadworks on your climb up.

  • Sweeping Coastal Views: High hillside seating with panoramic ocean sunsets over Sellicks Beach and Silver Sands.
  • Centuries-Old Wine Cellar: A working subterranean room surrounded by historic bottle collections for private group dining.
  • Elevated Gastropub Fare: Hearty plates like lamb shoulder roulade, crisp fish, and robust McLaren Vale pours.
