We had a lovely time for our daughters 18th dinner
The beer garden was a perfect environment and the food and staff were fantastic
Would highly recommend
The food we had was absolutely delicious, especially the burnt carrots ( maybe a name change needed ). It would be easy to have a meal consisting of just a few starters. The service was efficient and friendly and the wine list was good. It's noisy but hey it's a pub. Will definitely be back
Sheree is the greatest mixologist and took care of us all night. Amazing free cocktail for my besties birthday and an awesome manager. Highly recommend! Plenty of fun all night xxx
Awesome venue with a great beer garden. Food was very good and a great selection of beers on tap. Definitely be back again.
Friendly staff, with reasonably priced food and drinks, especially during the footy season. THanks guys
Visiting from SA - awesome food, I ate the chicken snitzel and it was lovely and juicy, chips were awesome. My husband had a rump steak and rated it up with the top 5 he's ever had! Cooked to perfection! He likes them rare and juicy and he said it was awesome! Thanks Terminus!
We love the Terminus in Abbotsford, especially when Miranda is running the dining area. She's the best, it's never the same when she isn't on. Best local pub anywhere!
My friends and I absolutely love the Termi - the atmosphere and staff make for a very nice time. Thank you.
Great casual place with a bit of table service to elevate it. My chicken burger was yummy. Fancy seats and busy crowd.
Fantastic business lunch with the work crew! Offered a set menu with choice and options, and the food was delicious! We shared a number of entree starters then got to choose our own main, the salmon was fantastic!!!
This is a cool corner hotel that is actually quite classy, with great service, a nice atmosphere and good food. The decor is quite flash... certainly not your usual run of the mill pub, and there is plenty of seating and a nice dining area. There is a great beer garden that is awesome when the weather is good.
With a decently stocked bar, and some good wine and coctails available, it's easy to settle in for a few drinks. The food menu is classic pub grub done well, with some more modern spins. There are a good choice of bar snacks which is great when you don't want a whole meal.
Overall, this is a friendly place with a great vibe, and not a bad spot to spend a weekend night or a Sunday session.
Have eaten at the Termo a few times now, last time of which was Saturday night. A friend and I shared half a dozen oysters: fresh and very enjoyable. I had the pork belly special and he had the Porterhouse. The pork belly was very tender; however the crackling could have been slightly crisper. Service was excellent!
Previously I've really enjoyed some of the sharing plates (calamari; pork buns etc). Also the mid-week happy hour is great value!
Will definitely be back!

On this 37 degree day we sipped Aperol spritz in the Terminus Aperol Garden. The hidden garden oasis was cool in temperature but high on energy.
We snacked on a cheese platter as we soaked in the surroundings, what a perfect way to spend a hot Saturday evening.
Continuing to enjoy the ambiance, the great tunes (thanks Mr DJ) and the slight breeze we had some more Aperol and a sublime passionfruit martini
Tonight we dined on the spiced pumpkin salad with herbed goats curd, seeds, mint, parsley, asparagus, with a tahini + honey dressing, this was an absolutely flavour bomb, every mouthful was a different combination of flavours, my tastebuds are doing the happy dance and my lips are humming from the spices. I loved the fact the pumpkin was one huge piece and was served warm. Seriously a salad to get excited about.
The 250g grass fed porterhouse medium rare with chips and a mushroom sauce. This steak was cooked perfectly medium rare and sliced well which was an improvement on the last time I visited. The chips were very well seasoned and crispy.
For dessert I chose the strawberry gin and tonic cocktail, this kicking drink was sweet and super strong, it was laden with fresh cut strawberries, easily dessert!
We also ordered the baked vanilla cheesecake for the driver. The strong ginger base added a nice zing to the vanilla cheese cake, but what really made the dish shine was the pineapple and mint syrupy combo on the side. I think I could eat a bowl of that with ice cream, yum.
Huge step up on our last visit to Terminus. Thanks so much for inviting us in.
When everything was full around this area on a Saturday night we happened to come here. Don't get me wrong it was absolutely full as well we walked around and finally scored a table at the door. Just having some casual drinks, the strawberry G&T was actually really lovely. You can see I love strawberry because I ordered the strawberry vanilla panna cotta. It was OK, at the end of the day we are at a pub. Friends enjoyed their espresso martini etc. Loved the tunes they played as well, almost made me feel like wanting to go out after this!
Happy to give a 5 star review here. We live around the corner from Terminus Hotel. The atmosphere is awesome here. There are cute lights and trees in the beer garden. There are heaters over the tables down the bottom outside and it's not cold inside.
Their food specials make the meals very good value for money, and they are delicious. Drinks are reasonably priced.
The service is great. Very friendly staff and enough of them so that you aren't left waiting.
Great atmosphere! Love the indoor/outdoor vibe. The gentleman that served us was really nice and consistent service, also good for a chat and had local knowledge. We had the beef burger, duck bao and croquettes, really nice pub food however I didn’t love that the bao was fried as it was hard not soft and fluffy like I was expecting. Chips were great! Burger was nice but not the best you can get in Richmond, croquettes were yummy and unique, would recommend them! Great selection of drinks too, both happy with the tap beer and cider we had.
Every time I’ve gone to the terminus the service and food has been great. I really like the vibe and the outdoor area. Happy hour is every night 5-7pm 5$ house wine and 8$ pints. Food is pretty generous and tasty! I’ve come here many times for the parma and it’s great . Tonight we got calamari and wedges! Calamari main was big enough for two but we always get greedy haha and got wedges too. Way too much food didn’t finish it.
The terminus is a great space for drinks. The large beer garden spanning several levels is one of the best in Melbourne with a great vibe. Good selection of beers on tap.

The name reminded me of Asimov's Foundation series so I immediately liked it :) The place is big and has a nice beer garden! Staff was nice and so was the wine. I recommend it!
Nicely refurbished pub. I thought the food was great. Tuna with soba noodles was delicious. Nice wine and cocktails. $30-$35 for a main - expensive, but not entirely unusual at done up pubs in Melb. Staff are very nice. A nice place to go for a drink and a meal.
I live around the corner so I have drinks and food there regularly. Since it re-opened the interiors and beer garden at the back are lovely. They do parma nights on Thursdays - $16 parmas. Not the best I've ever eaten but for the price it's honest. Food tends to be overpriced on regular days though. Considering how packed is it on Sat nights I'd say it's quite successful!
I visited twice last week and was really impressed with the service and the parmas! Yes, they offer a fresh pub parma and unpasteurized cartlon beer if that's your jam
Poor slow cook lamb shoulder over all completely uneatable tasted stale as if held much to long after cooked as much as days Have had shoulder of lamb before which was excellent in a different format was expecting the same standard
Nice and friendly environment, top quality gastro pub. And the food is delicious, I personally recommend a nice pint of the unpasteurised Carlton with one of their aged Scotch Fillet. It simply melts in your mouth.
Really nice Chicken Parmigiana, and a large selection of beers and wine to choose from. Best part about the place is the new renovations. Very cool design, lots and nice areas, and will be awesome in the warmer months.

Wowzers. At first glance this place was surely a smack joint. The new owners have done it up with a bangin' front bar with generous set of tvs to catch sport, and a beautiful warm beer garden out the back. Plenty of deals throughout the week. Sadly my rating takes a nosedive as my friend relieved a RAW chicken Palma. Apologetic manager, placating us with...a round of Carlton draft???
We've been meaning to visit the Terminus since it re-opened, finally got there on Friday night. We sat upstairs in the bar area, which was a bit noisy (live music downstairs followed by dj music upstairs) but we had a good sing along anyway. Just not overly good for having a normal conversation. The interior & decor is lovely, they've done a great job. Restaurant menu & counter menu were up for offer, was disappointed there wasnt more GF main meals on offer, but we did enjoy the meals we chose: Omelette (gf) Salmon (gf) & Parma. All were well cooked & tasty. Will visit again and try some of the grazing options.
The Terminus Hotel in Abbotsford is quite recognizable, painted in a unique green it sits on Victoria St, newly opened and refined, it is a great pub to drink at, I was there to see if it was a good pub to eat at. I went with a few friends and ordered three standards to judge their food, the Parma, their 300g Porterhouse cooked rare served with chips and herb butter and finally their 200g cheeseburger.
Perfect place for drinks in the sunshine. Great venue for drinks with friends. Delicious food for sharing. Will def be back.
Tasty pub food in lovely surroundings. We had steak sandwiches which were very well cooked and tasty. The courtyard and decor are fabulous and I will certainly return again.
Despite previous reviews, my partner and I throughly enjoyed our Thursday dinner here-perhaps it was the specials $14 for Parmas and Steak or the gorgeous sunny outside area upstairs or just the friendly service. Would recommend and return
Firstly, the venue is amazing, great vibe and a brilliant place to chill, and have a drink. Unfortunately the food, not so great my friends and I tried the Fish and Chips of which there was more batter then fish and the fish that was there was fatty and oily, the chips were cold and limp and at $24 a serve it was very upsetting to receive such a distasteful meal. Others on the table had the Parma which was dry and again had soggy limp chips. I hope that this was just a teething problem and the food will be improved in the not to distant future.
Great night. We used to go to the Terminus many years ago so was keen to return. Great meal, fabulous atmosphere, we will be back!
Yum. Just finishing eating my dinner here and I needed to write a review to clear up some previous comments I've read... firstly, yes, awesome atmosphere and vibe... gorgeous venue and its so new it doesnt smell like a pub yet! Staff are attentive and lovely... And the food, wow, i was impressed. Firstly, really fast service and meals came out in 10-15 mins... I had the farro salad and asked if i could add chicken, which they happily agreed to... huge flavor, great portion size and overall impressed. The guys had parmas which they rated highly, said they were some of the best theyve had... overall really happy and looking forward to coming back... Maybe the other reviews were early teething problems as the food was top notch tonight!
It's back!. After some rather large renovations the terminus is back. A no fuss pub that serves good food.
Yay! It's back. Fabulous reno, great beers and good food. This place will go off in Summer!!!
Lockdown is over, let the beers and peppercorn sauce flow!
After essentially 2 years locked down, the Terminus team have returned and have not missed a beat. Awesome service still remains, the food is as good as ever and the staff are professionally & respectfully managing the check-in situation with care.
Highly recommended, perfect 5 stars!
Never been before.
Really enjoyed lunch with the family at an affordable price and quality menu items.
Great layout, with main bar, inside, outside and upstairs dining areas.
A good modern pub. I ordered the tacos which were good, the tortilla fell apart but flavours were really nice. My friend ordered the burger and wasn’t a fan of the bread roll, the others enjoyed their meals. I would go back here.

We went for a party and were in the upstairs function room. The staff, drinks, food and decor were first class. I'm wheat free and there were some good options for me.
The only issues were the stairs, they make the venue inaccessible for people with mobility issues, & parking is only off-street.
Hands down the best food in the area. Staff are really lovely and welcoming. Friday night cocktail special is DANGEROUS 😉
My new favorite. Great pub - love the traditional front bar - the beer garden is a fantastic space. The shared plates were delish and the kingfish ceviche is delish!
Stylish, cool pub with great outdoor beer garden and separate dining area. Staff are friendly and quick. Food is fairly good, we had the DIY crab tacos, calamari and wedges. The food was tasty and heavily salted, it would have been nice if it was fresher and not deep fried.
