The Pavilion at Douglas Golf Club is more than just a place to grab a bite after a round—it's a welcoming, fully licensed bar and restaurant offering fantastic food, a relaxed yet elegant setting, and stunning views over one of the Isle of Man’s most historic golf courses. Whether you’re a member, a visitor, a keen golfer, or someone simply looking for a quality meal in beautiful surroundings, The Pavilion is a hidden gem in the heart of Douglas.
Located within Douglas Golf Club, which was designed in 1926 by the renowned course architect Dr. Alister MacKenzie—the mastermind behind Augusta National, home of The Masters—the Pavilion enjoys a rich heritage and a unique atmosphere. But you don’t need to know a nine iron from a sandwich wedge to appreciate the welcoming charm, friendly service, and mouthwatering food that The Pavilion offers daily.
Open to the public, The Pavilion serves both lunch and evening meals, all prepared using locally sourced ingredients wherever possible. The kitchen focuses on hearty, honest food with flair—think fresh fish, classic pub mains, seasonal specials, and vegetarian options, all cooked to order and beautifully presented. It’s a space where you can enjoy a light lunch with friends, a romantic evening meal, or celebrate a special occasion in comfort.
A real highlight of the week is the Sunday Carvery, which has earned a reputation as one of the best on the island. Guests can enjoy a choice of locally sourced roast meats, crisp roast potatoes, a selection of fresh vegetables, Yorkshire puddings, and rich homemade gravy—the kind of traditional Sunday meal that brings people together. Due to its popularity, advance booking is highly recommended to avoid disappointment.
In addition to casual dining, The Pavilion is an excellent choice for private functions. From birthday parties to weddings, corporate events, and seasonal get-togethers, the venue can be tailored to suit a variety of occasions. With ample space, tasteful décor, and a flexible layout, it’s ideal for both small and large gatherings. The staff are experienced and accommodating, ready to work with you to deliver a custom event to your exact needs—complete with personalised menus, drinks packages, and room configurations.
