    The new marketing tag line "The Birmingham - it's not shit anymore" certainly catches the attention, but the quintessential question remains, is it true? Well I guess that is a matter of opinion. New Management have certainly gotten rid of the riff raff that used to frequent this place, and lined up a solid string of live music almost every day of the week. But then again, (maybe it's the swear word in the tag line or just the fact that a lot of indie bands play at this venue) it has become the new hangout of young emo's that barely look old enough to go to the toilet on their own let alone have an ID. So the question is not really whether or not it's shit anymore but maybe if it is too cool now? Who knows I am certainly not one to judge - because they have kept their happy hours of $2 pots on the very generous days of Friday and Saturday between 8pm-10pm. So I am more than happy to pop in from time to time and raise my glass in honour of the riff raff that will still frequent the place for a pocket money priced beverage.

    I've only been here once and I was very drunk, and with my even drunker man and his friend from university in Leeds who had just arrived in Melbourne to study for a year. I remember the place being a bit crap, and the band playing wasn't my thing. We still had a good night though because, a) we almost didn't get in because my man has this great knack of looking much drunker than he actually is, but we all managed to convince the bouncer to let us in simply using our incredible grasp of the English language, and b) they served us drinks when nobody else would. The clincher though was my two British companions beating two very cocky backpackers at pool, who I'm sure thought they were going to win because of how wasted we all looked. Luckily, the people I associate with function much better when pissed.

    A good selection of tap beer and cider, good service and the food is spot-on. Best pub in Fitzroy/Collingwood.

From the moment you walk in, there's a buzz that makes the place feel alive without being overwhelming. It strikes a great balance between upscale and relaxed, making it perfect for a date night or a fun evening out. The warm lighting and eclectic design add to the charm and make you want to linger. Service was friendly, attentive, and well-paced throughout the night. The staff were knowledgeable about the menu, checked in on us at the right moments, and made the whole experience feel effortless and welcoming. Every dish we ordered was excellent -- not a single miss. We started with the Cauliflower & Mozzarella Croquettes, which were crispy on the outside and perfectly creamy inside. The Grilled King Prawns were flavorful and cooked just right, while the Kingfish Ceviche was fresh, bright, and beautifully balanced. The Stracciatella & Heirloom Tomatoes was simple yet outstanding, letting the quality of the ingredients shine. For mains, the Duck Breast was cooked perfectly and full of rich flavor, and the Lamb Backstrap was tender and well-seasoned. The Pecorino & Ricotta Ravioli was comforting and delicate, while the Seafood Linguine stood out with generous portions of seafood and a beautifully balanced sauce. The Honey Glaze Carrots were the perfect side -- sweet, savory, and executed flawlessly. Overall, State of Grace delivers on every level -- ambience, service, and food. An exceptional spot that lives up to the hype, and one we'd absolutely return to on our next visit to Melbourne.

It's the decor from extravagant chandeliers to deer heads with pearl necklaces; it's beautifully eclectic. I had an old fashion and it had the right mix of orange and bitters. I also ordered the burger which was decent and the fries were hot and crispy. The night I visited there was a live singer playing tunes. Service was quick and friendly. Even the ordering is eclectic as you order electronically (QR) pasted to a library book. This place is worth a visit.

It's one of our 'footy pubs' that me and my mates frequent before and after games - a 10 min walk to the MCG seemingly scaring off the bogan throngs that must filter in places closer to the ground. Staff is always friendly and welcoming, it's vibrant without being too busy, and the pub grub has never let me down yet. Ideally they would add a few more taps and beer variety, or at least rotate more frequently to mix things up, but it's a small complaint. Yet to partake in a trivia night yet but one started up around us recently and it looked like good fun that we'll likely come back to try. Note: I have extreme bias as have been lucky enough to celebrate several of my team's Grand Final victories here, so The Prince Pat will always have a special place in my heart for that alone!

    Mountain Goat Brewery - Art for sale is kitsch. Yet, when you pay for MG's IPA, you pay for the privilege of sustaining the artisan.

    Mountain Goat is the 1st brewery I have been to in Melbourne. This brewery is Richmond based, and…read moreentirely 100% independently owned. And this place left me with high expectations for any other one that I will come across. Only open on Fridays and Wednesday's, I came here for one of their free brewery tours (6:30pm). Did I mention that they are free? Winning! We arrived early, and found a table. I knew exactly what I was coming here for; beer and pizza; such a beautiful combination. Taking advice from the bar-man, we ordered the pizza that had ham on it. Now, because the tour was going to be starting soon, we realized that we wouldn't have had enough time to down our drinks and our pizza. The staff were so kind, and delayed putting our pizza into the oven until we finished our tour. The tour was great! Very informative, you get to learn about their process, and how they go about beer the "goat way". The ham on the pizza was just a tiny bit too salty for my liking, but I won't hold that against them. I'll just self note it to myself to try something different the next time. This place got crowded as the night progressed. We saw some bicyclists come in, and even saw some families here enjoying their pizza. Side note: Their Steam Ale- it's organic!

    A lovely space for craft brew with a great friendly knowledgeable staff…read more All the beers are their own and all beers are worth a try plus they have some locally brewed editions that you won't see canned so it's totally worth it to come here and try some new/altered stuff rather than just having draft versions. They have free brewery tours on Wednesdays 6:30pm, go for a ride!

However I don't mind the place, it just seems to be a little more classier than what I tend to like. They do have quite a nice beer garden, as well as some decent beers on tap, but I tend to walk past this one to the two pubs that happen to have rooftop decks that happen to be on the other side of the railway line. Sure, it does seem to be quite popular, and there have been times that the place has been absolutely packed, and I don't actually mind it all that much, however the atmosphere, and the fact that there are better places in the vicinity mean that I usually give this place a miss.

On the one occasion we were here, our friend knew the doormen and we were let in. The bar/pub itself is quite a big area decked out with plasma TVs and quite snazzy decor. The courtyard area is pretty nice and a great spot to get some air. We were there on a Friday night and there was a cover band playing. Although they were pretty cheesy and played even cheesier tunes, I have to admit it was pretty fun. It's not really my scene if I'm honest but good times were had all the same.
