    The Bridge Hotel was a decent spot for drinking after playing football at the school down Yarra Boulevard on a Thursday night. The atmosphere was very chilled, the beer was reasonably priced and they would always have sports on the TVs. The food looked ok but we were all slightly put off by the above average price. In April this year the pub shut down for a major renovation. It was kind of annoying as there really isn't anywhere else just round the corner for the indoor football crowd. The pub is set to open up again very shortly and we'll see how they go from there. Here is their description of the renovations taken from their website: "The idea our architects had in designing the new Bridge Hotel was to borrow from Melbourne's eclectic laneway culture and run a cobblestone laneway right through the centre, complete with outdoor tables, heaters, umbrellas and an enormous three metre high glass-encased wood burning fire. It's an extraordinary concept - and we can't wait to see it!" It sounds pretty cool and is set to open up again in November, so watch this space....

    never fails to disappoint.. above average pub food. and they stock pretty good beers from local micro breweries. Tried the pork belly and fush n chups... both were very good. Chips served on the side were veeeery addictive!! crisp !! the sour salad served with the pork belly was a good touch otherwise got think could've finished.... well okok I would have devoured it regardless... :)

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.

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!

It's actually a stone's throw from the river and there's a great park just down the end of the street -- though I dare say said construction zone will have ruined that. The pub is a cracker of a building, all green and dilapidated and grimy looking. Inside is a warren of little rooms and spots to rest your weary legs. There's an ace garden area out the back. All the furniture, and the decor in general, is falling apart at the seams and at times I wonder whether the pub may be on its last legs. I popped down for lunch the other day to find it closed in the middle of the arvo, which sent a shock wave through my body. It is the kind of place that will open, or not, depending on extraneous circumstances. The food here is standard pub fodder, the beer is cod and the staff are friendly as hell.
