Been to this place many times in the past year moving to Melbourne. One of the coolest places to hang. Staff are always top notch Walker and Steve always make my wife and two young boys feel very welcome. A must to go if you come to Melbourne. And food is great just to top it off.
Leonard’s you ol heartthrob you! You definitely are a house of love!
Hubby and I decided to finally come in for dinner tonight and we were not disappointed.
The place looks amazing and feels warm and cosy. Loved the cool things to look at in every corner.
Great atmosphere, fun yet relaxed vibes and the staff were so freakin lovely! Thank you for working hard but for still having a smile on your faces ���
We chose the Leonard’s lager which was just what we needed after a long day and hunni mmm mmm.
Can we buy this to take away?
We ordered cheeseburgers, eggplant tenders and popcorn curds and holy shitballs, all so juicy, full of flavour and just an all round delish.
Really good quality hearty food that warmed our bellies nicely.
Thank you guys!
Thanks for not being another overpriced dump and caring about good food and good vibes.
Hope to be there for your 3rd birthday on Sunday! Xx
Located just off the famous Chapel Rd, was introduced to this place by my friend.
Tried their famous burger & it absolutely blew my mind, so good & satisfying 🍔
🗓 Visited in April 2018
Leonard’s has some good fried chicken. Their spicy chicken wings are actually spicy and dressed in some tangy, smokey sauce (potentially Worcestershire sauce - not too sure). Their sides are pretty good as well: the chicken loaded fries and mac n’ cheese were well balanced, while the curry coleslaw could’ve been a bit less sweeter.
In terms of environment, the venue is a dark, rustic bar full of old memorabilia. It can get quite crowded in there, but the service is pretty decent. However, like most old bars, it does smell like old alcohol which is a bit of a turn off.
I don't normally leave reviews for food but Leonard's House of Love is an absolute standout for me. Ordered the vegan burger and vegan chilli fries and was blown away. Delicious, hearty and meaty (yes a weird expression for vegan food). Not to mention the atmosphere of the place is really laid-back and homely. It is a pretty decent experience eating delicious food with 70s rock blaring in the background. Will be back many times in the future!
Great service and amazing food everytime! Really cool, laidback set up! Dog friendly with beer garden, inside bar and pool table. Always really friendly staff and fast service.
The food is amazing. One of the best beef burgers you can get in Melbourne! Also love their hot habanero chicken thigh;amazing flavor and heat!!
Definitely recommend this as a go-to place for amazing burgers and cool place for drinks! Will keep coming back!
Awesome, warm vibe at Leonard's - the name is definitely not false advertising! The burger is great - mac and cheese was a little basic, but it was still delicious!
Mozzarella balls, Mac & cheese and nachos. I mean what’s not to love. It’s proper drinking food. Treat yoself. Good vibe, music and crowd.
Leonard's has all your Friday favourites. A good selection of burgers but really everyone goes there to get the fried chicken burger. And all the usual suspects for sides, chips, tater tots, onion rings the lot.
Great place for a team lunch or for some drinks on a Friday arvo.
The food is amazing and well priced. Definitely one of the best beef burgers I’ve had in Melbourne. I highly recommend the chicken tenders too.
Best cheeseburgers in Melbourne! Fried chicken is good too. Good atmosphere. Waiters/ waitresses are generally great. Every now and then you get one that seems completely disinterested in their job and acts like it's a chore to serve you, but most are great.
Been here couple of times.. love the atmosphere here and the ambience. Just what you need sometimes. Live music, chilled beer, games and little something to eat and a good company! Sometimes it gets too crowded but overall good experience so far!
This is one of our all time FAV places in Melbourne. I used to come to this bar in the old days. They’ve done a great job doing it up into a cool laid back casual rock bar. Their burgers are amazing. It’s all in the patty and their sauces. And as you know we are all about dog friendly places - you can take the pooch with you. How good is that! My only gripe - they keep running out of potato gems and it’s one of the only reasons why I want to go! 😂 They’ve been off the menu/out of stock about 5 visits now…..please keep them stocked up. 👌🏼
Ordered all the habenaro sauced ones as I like my food spicy. Delicious :D
Good selection of beers both on tap and in tins. Very nice atmosphere both inside and outside
Impeccable cocktails, deeeelish food, great service! Loved it, highly recommend!! 😍 Only request - turn some of those cheese curds into Poutine! 😉🤤😍 PS: the beyond meat veggie burger was to-die-for!
Always the best food. The best crowds and the best staff!
I love this place more than my own house - so if you aren't having any of this amazing food or beverages here; you're wasting your money at the wrong place!
Cute ambience great service. The chicken sanga was tasty and juicy, curry mayo slaw is an interesting touch. Burger is underwhelming. Idk how that fries are worth $16.
Reminds me of a bar in old westerns. Love the drinks, staff and food selection. The poutine and fries with cheese and mushroom were so delicious that we finished it and I forgot to take a photo
There’s nothing like a Leonard’s feed to soothe the stomach and soul. Here’s my cheeseburg and popcorn chicken from last night. This place is the best and encapsulates Melbourne vibes so well. Whenever I have friends visiting I take them to Leonard’s.
