Pricing is reasonable and our meals were enjoyable. We started with the trio of dips and bread to share and then each selected a Parma because that's generally the most sensible choice in a pub. A wise choice it turned out as the parma was sizeable and utterly delicious. A quick google confirmed it ranked as number three in Victoria something I can certainly attest to. Atmosphere of a Friday night was lively too

Nice place for after work food and drink. Multiple screens to enjoy your fav sport.
We ordered
1. pizzas (margarita, capriciosa, prosciutto and sausage) they were all very good and good portion size
2. Nachos - 5/5
3. Chips with aioli very flavourful kept us busy while the rest of the food came
4. Calamari - 4/5 less portion
5. Chicken ribs - more like wings

Drinks:
Beers were good but overpriced compared to other places but the ambiance covers for that
Cocktails- espresso martini - 3/5
Elderflower 4/5

Strong lunch crowd. We were recommended here for lunch and were not disappointed. The steak Senga sandwich here is enough to make one drool.

Hands down the best Pub Food we've had in Melbourne. Lived up to the reviews of being one of Melbourne's best pubs with a fantastic atmosphere & food to match. Plenty of screens to catch the sporting action whilst enjoying a meal or drink.

Looking forward to returning to checkout the rooftop bar!
