Everyone’s got their own favourite pub, bar or hotel. So exactly where do you think is the best place for a beer in Melbourne?
There’s many different things which can make a good pub: a beer garden, a pub restaurant… even an on-site brewery. Whether you’re looking for an inn or tavern-style pub, or something a little more classy… there’s plenty around to suit all tastes.
But what matters is what you think is the best pub in Melbourne. Who wins in your books?
The Royal Mail on Spencer Street! Great food, different (“Roadkill Wednesdays”), great beers on tap, friendly, down to earth staff. Comfortable atmosphere.
The Standard Hotel, Fitzroy. Best beer garden.
Agree on The Standard Hotel. Great food and huge beer garden. Only bad thing are the possums that occasionally dump in your beer.
The Retreat in Brunswick
Great new pub in Montague St south Melbourne – cnr Buckhurst.
THE FLEECE
Has a rooftop deck you wouldnt know was there + great food too.
The Fleece is weird. It’s like it doesn’t know if it is a tradie pub or an upper class pub. It seems to put out this “newly renovated” image of being wanky and up market but you go in there, and its just the same old brickies and plumbers that’ve been going there all these years.
