The best local ever good food friendly staff and wide selection of wine spirits and beers
Grab a beer and sit outside on the sidewalk or in the garden in the back. Great weekend afternoon spot.
Roast western plains pork shoulder & crackling ,Apple sauce & shaved fennel salad - mmmm
The Prawn Omelette is amazing.
Try the aged sirloin steak . Absolutely spectacular with the red wine jus + bernaise and quite affordable at $25 (should come standard with veggies though)!
Service excellent. Decor was classic & classy . Fish pie was warming. Beers were little expensive .
Everything is good here! Very casual
Fish pie , smoked trout , prawns , rockling, sorrel
Get a seat in the propped up lounge in the front bar .
Try a pot of 2 brothers "growler " brown ale . A tap rarity and delicious!
According to Herald Sun's Weekend, the Fish Pie is a must-have.
Good to see 4 pines in tap ????
$10 jugs of boags draught or gypsy pear cider before 6pm daily.
Wednesday mussel feast (like eating seafood critters, not show-pony gay men as per the former establishment!)
Was playing the score from the assassination of Jesse James when I walked in here...loved this place off the cuff
Steak night, steak was tough, don’t go, not even worth $19.
Gypsy cider jugs $10 before 6pm!
monday night half price bar menu!
Good nuts .
Coffee is terrible (as you would expect of a bar and after speaking with the honest staff )
Sweet little beer garden.
The best vegan burger in the universe, ok Melbourne. Great local pub with awesome food for your meat loving friends as well. Can't get enough of this place - James Ridenour
Great happy hour 4pm - 7pm, $2 pots and $4 pints. Food also reasonable price of $10 but limited to burgers only at the moment. - Yondering Monkeys
The Jukebox IPA on tap is to die for. Floral notes, great smooth taste. - Samit Malkani
Absolutely delicious chicken. Tried the dark meat, really hot spiced with bleu cheese dressing. Love it and will return - Brian Ritchie
Fave flavour of the month for me is the Mighty GM Pie (peanut butter gelato with choco crust & custard, and banana jam). Went back there for two consecutive weekends! - Lynn Wabbit
A perfect place to step back in time. Cocktails are $19 and I recommended the Toreador - lime and apricot in a beautiful glass. - MelbournianGirl
