We really enjoy visiting the transport hotel. The rooftop area is fantastic… its almost always buzzing with locals and travellers. Great food, drinks and views. There usually a bit of live music to enjoy over the weekend which is an added bonus.
Transport Bar, which is bang opposite to Flinders Station, situated on the Federation Square, scores high on the Vibe, Chick Decor, Happy Attendants, Good Choices of Drinks and A very accommodating Chef who managed to grill the Pizzas perfectly crisp, as requested by us on a Busy Friday evening.
Our two cents on Pizzas: Decent!! (Nothing out of this world)
We totally LOVED it.
Came here for dinner to catch up with a friend, we had a pizza to share and some beer, such a nice place. Next time we will sit outside and enjoy the view!
Until 15 March 2019, Club Aperol will be popping up at the Transport Hotel located in Melbourne’s Federation Square. Expect to enjoy one of Melbourne’s best dining venues over $12 Aperol Spritz every day! For an amazing Sunday Session, you can grab your friends, enjoy a 2x Aperol Spritz + Charcuterie Board for $40 served from our Aperol Spritz pop up cart.
I ordered the tandoori chicken pizza. I was skeptical they could pull it off, but they did and I loved it: subtle spice; succulent, tasty chicken; soft, creamy potatoes. My only suggestion would be to drizzle some of the complimentary Sriracha sauce on it to give it more kick.
I also ordered a bowl of chips, which were perfect – temperature, saltiness, crispiness.
The friendly, easygoing staff staff, and the sunny, not-overly-loud ambience completed a very pleasant experience.
I picked one of their stone-fired pizzas. The ‘Napoli, mozzarella, ham, mushroom, artichoke, olive ($13.00)’ pizza was the perfect size for one person. The base was thin and crispy and the artichokes were succulent.
Great selection of meals and drinks. Enjoyed the chicken Parma topped with bacon, chips were a bit too soft and loved the tandoori chicken pizza just the right amount of spice. Free wi fi. Bright airy space. Quick service
Delicious and quick pub grub. The sardines were amazing. My only criticism would be the cost of food and drinks is probably a bit on the steep side considering how casual the atmosphere is.
Gosh I haven't been here in ages! Popped in for a pre drink as had dinner booked across at Chocolate Buddha. Transport has a mix of people and last night had typical Fri night after work crowd. Good mix of tap beers and there was happy hour on wine. I haven't had a beer in such a long time so had the Kirin on tap and it was refreshing. Location is great being opposite Flinders station and the pub is a good size with heaps of space and great city views.
Great atmosphere. Good food. I had Irish sausages and mash and onion gravy. The other had fish n chips.
Like a pub from the old country.
Ate in dining room attached to pub next door (waiter service in here).
We booked a table for dinner, and were greeted by a very friendly and super attentive staff. We were seated in the dining area, and I was surprised by how quiet it was.
We ordered Fish n Chips (Beer battered fish fillet, chips, salad, tartare sauce), and the Beef & Guinness Pie (Guinness sauce, creamy mash potato, seasonal vegetables), plus Chips on the side.
Food was great, and went very well with Guinness & Magners Apple Cider.
I'd like to come back again, but have a seat at the bar area, as I want to experience the beauty of Irish pubs I am used to. This was too quiet for me.
Love the Guinness Pie. Chunks of tender beef in great flavour.
First time having Parma. It's a bit hard and dry for me.
The mussels are okay. I prefer a thicker, more tasty chilli.
Fish and chips are on point.
I love the decor and the Service.
Will be back for the pie again.

I have not been to this Irish Pub for years. A great place to pop in for a beer and a quick bite if lunch. The service was very friendly and there was a mix of traditional pub fair and Irish classics. It was surprisingly quiet yet can imagine there would be an amazing atmosphere when it’s busy. The food was good but the beer was better.
Food was lovely, the people were very nice and it all came quite fast! Meals are pretty big so share an entrée and have one dish each that would be enough for 2 people. There are some days where there is live music 🎶 it's lovely 😍 will definitely come back
Great food, large servings and wonderful atmosphere. Excellent service. Food took a little bit to come out, but nothing too bad, and normal pub prices. Definitely recommend coming here as we had a wonderful time.
After reading the reviews below, I am convinced it must have been our lucky day yesterday. The young gentleman at the bar who served me and my friend who is a senior citizen was caring. The beer and lemonade were good too. Lots of room on a Saturday evening 19/02/2022
