There is not a lot,not to like about this pub ,great place for a feed and drink,beer nice but food excellent. Highly recommend
The Publican Julian was an absolute legend.
We needed a table for three adults and three kids at late notice on a Friday night before the footy, and he helped us out. He was even willing to call other pubs in the vicinity to ensure we got a table, if there was no spot available at the Irish Times. Absolute Above and Beyond service, great food, fantastic atmosphere. Next time we're in Melbourne we'll be visiting again for sure!
Lovely Guinness....and had tayto...lovely atmosphere..truely Irish feels...with rugby
Good spot to take a break for lunch and people watch. Serving all your favourite Irish pub food with a comfortable and easy atmosphere. Also – they serve great Guinness.

The Irish Time never disappoints! Came here for Guinness and their signature dish, Beef and Guinness Pie! It was amazing!
ORDERED:
Beef and Guinness Pie (RECOMMEND)
GUINESS
Very traditional, casual and unassuming.
The menu is old school pub favourites but the dishes are quite well executed – it really is hearty, comfort food.
Beef & Guiness Pie – so much flavour in this pie. Good chunks of soft beef, sweetness and body from the stout and a load of woster. The grilled cheese finish on top rounds everything out, and is an excellent winter dish.
I'd come back again when I need a little something extra.
My parents and I absolutely loved this place! The grub’s really rustic and is perfect #comfortfood. We dropped by on a Monday evening so it was more laid-back and chill. The service is great. Ambience is a 10/10. I adored their mashed potatoes.... YUM!
Nice cozy place, good range of drinks and food was nice. I ordered lamb and beef pie, both were piping hot well cooked served with some delicious bread which we ordered and they were so nice to give us extra bread for no cost.
Want to try the best Guinness in Australia? Then head to the Irish Times in Melbourne. Its now a tradition for our group to head over there or after work drinks on Friday and christen the weekend with a beautifully poured Guinness.
Food is good with all the classic dishes you want in a pub aswell
After dinner was looking for somewhere to have a drink and this was right next door to dinner. An Irish pub which had the footy on and was beaming. A beer in had we were happy
In my opinion, one of the top pubs in Melbourne. Brilliant staff, super helpful management, and delicious food - we're looking at you Shepherds Pie! Awesome vibe downstairs too - like having a little bit of home right here in Australia. I now take friends and colleagues here frequently - not had a bad experience yet :-)
😱Lizzie’s first impression:
I came here for a lunch on Friday and I was pleasantly surprised. We tried their "infamous" curry chips which was topped with the traditional Irish curry sauce. Think a curry flavoured gravy.
🍩Lizzie enjoyed:
I tried their famous Beef and Guiness Pie. IT WAS DELICIOUS. Think a stewed beef that's perfectly cooked with mushrooms, then a layer of mashed potatoes and then a quick layer of melted and crispy cheese on top. Honestly one of the best dishes I have tried in a while. Moreover, the fries with the curry sauce was a real winner also. I loved the flavours.
🍅Lizzie did not enjoy:
I never realised how busy this place was, but the wait for lunch was excruciatingly long! I think we got in at 12:30pm on a Friday but after ordering in 5 minutes, we didn't have our food until 1:13pm.
🥇Lizzie rates overall: Next time, I would highly recommend to at least bring out the entrees even though the mains are not ready. But, even then I think this place was worth the wait!!
Decked out as a traditional Irish pub, our interest was piqued from the beginning. Great ambience and eclectic finishes add to an atmosphere that lends itself to lingering over both food and beer. While the menu is not extensive, there is plenty to like and our choice of rib eye on the bone was delicious. Plenty of sides to choose from and share. The place filled quickly, with people meeting up and chatting over a pint or two right into the afternoon.
Highly recommend!!
Homely comfortable pub with friendly service. Stopped in for lunch on Good Friday not expecting much and was completely blown away by the service, friendly staff, delicious food and drinks. Can't go past a perfectly poured pint of Guinness. We had such amazing food we forgot to stop and take a photo, Snitzel, Guinness pie, buffalo wings, onion rings. We were stuffed and couldn't stop eating!
Went for a quick drink with a friend. Gets filled very fast. We were seated upstairs near the kitchen and food looked good (unfortunately we didn’t have any).
Cute mini pub with an Irish atmosphere. It got loud/noisy when it was packed with people. Food was delicious and reasonable priced. I got the Shepard's pie with apple cider.
I had a long day and just wanted to grab a beer and relax🙌🏻. The environment is great, live music🎻, friendly service, and good prices. You can choose an extensive tasty dishes from the menu and awesome drinks such as beers on tap, wines and cocktails 🍸 🍻🍾🍷. Go and have an amazing time with your friends and family.
Well.......step back in time walking into this place. You forget you're in Melbourne when you enter, well we did anyway. Pull up at the bar and order a Guinness and forget you're worries of the day. You may even order a Guinness Pie? We did and it was absolutely delicious. Staff were wonderful, I don't get this single file lining up to the bar for service thing, it was a pretty busy night and the bar was full, spread out across the bar, yet the lady behind the bar just seemed to know who next in line to serve. Perfect. No-one left waiting. Definitely go back there next time my wife and I are in town. Enjoy. We certainly did.
The Beef and Guinness pie was nice with chunky pieces of beef. But would have loved some pastry or thicker mashed potato.
Onion rings were good. Staff are very laid back.
Very nice place to have a fish and chips and a beer!
