One of the best corner hotels left in Melbourne ! The Publican is slightly different! But OK after a couple of waters!
The food is great here, one of the best value steak nights in the area.
Love the "hidden" rooftop as well, great place for a few drinks in the sun, with really friendly staff.
Such a beautiful venue. Upstairs roof top is quite nice. Heaps of lighting and quite cosy. Sports running in the background. Great drinks and atmosphere.
Not only is it a good pub, I also really like the food. They do good quality pub meals, and if you get the specials it makes it very affordable as well! Itās one of my go to options for when we want to watch the footy at a decent pub while eating a tasty dinner; as thereās only a few places that offer both these qualities!
The only advantage I can possibly see in having to work back and then missing my train by about a minute is I had over twenty minutes to fill in before the next train home. Just enough time for a walk up from Hawthorn station and into the Elgin for a very quick pint. I love this place but have only ever come for a drink here and there and the chips... I pledge to come back for a real meal sometime soon when I have a little more time on my hand
Fantastic place to eat too many delicious choices to selectš. Staff are so friendly and helpful. Very relaxed place to be on a sunny afternoon. Will head upstairs next visit
The menu offers the whole bunch of great gourmet foods. Very popular restaurant for families with kids. Itās packed but still has the nice and comfortable feeling
A truly solid place to have a decent feed. You can't go wrong with their fish and chips, made with thin pieces of King George whiting. Their pasta is pretty good as well, I've enjoyed their pumpkin gnocchi.
The Fettuccine with mushroom, rockets, and cream was fantastic. Service is prompt and efficient. Food also made within 15 minutes. Ambience an old pub feel. We sat on a table and was asked if we could move as the group of men have been sitting there for the past 30 years they said. Good on them, love the strong sense of neighbourhood feel.
Been here a few times. The fish & chips and steak is pretty good here. Good ambience, friendly service. Wednesday nights are packed from Parma night.
Good Grub ... For the love of Monday Night $16.00 steak ...This corner block, old style, spacious, grand looking, one of the most comfortable pub to ventureĀ and hangout do served good grubs, sorry food.At $16.00 for a medium-rare Porterhouse, chips, saladĀ and Pepper sauce (other sauces available too), cooked well, they did it well. Although the $9.00 Yarra Valley Pinot Noir was a disappointment.
Order at the counter and the kitchen is very efficient in making delivering your order. At that rate is a good grub. JT-16/04/2017.
Lunch deal is good at $12. Tried calamari salad, Shepard'a pie, fish and chips, pizza and enjoyed it. Pasta and eggplants was good too. The upper floor is pleasant but careful with those high chairs. Some are so rusty that it snaps. A friend was sitting on a high chair when it snapped and he fell off the high chair. We had a good laugh thinking back but thats just because he didn't hurt himself.
Came down for long overdue meal since moving in locally. The parma was pretty lacklustre. Parma, pint and gravy sets you back about $43. I'd give the parma 6/10, could of been bigger. Gravy was 10/10. I guess it averages out as "just alright"?
Love this place, staff are super friendly. We hosted my Step Sons 21st birthday party upstairs and great fun was had by all.
Lamb back strap was nice, but a little small. The chutney they had with it was great. The pumpkin gnocchi was good however they used way way too much garlic which overpowered it and made it very difficult to eat. Not too bad, prices were a bit expensive and the portions were on the small side.
Food was delicious, came out quickly. Staff excellent. Vibe calm and relaxing.
Would definitely visit again. Thank you!!
