Went to the Penny Black with some friends for drinks, the atmosphere was amazing! the place is big and can hold alot of people. Outside area is amazing and there was even a dance floor. Drinks were well priced and had alot of selection on tap. Would definitely come back throughout summer.

Local pub with a couple of park-style tables outside in front of the pub and huge beer garden at the back. Inside you have a stage for what we think live bands perform and there is also a small pool table. For the food we took on their offer of 3 appetizers for $45. The Buffalo wing had decent sauce, the popcorn cauliflower also not too bad. The best thing about it all is actually the generous portion. Pub appetizers tend to be small but these are truly great to share! Kids Margherita was a little disappointing as the base/dough was very thick and feels like an overkill after couple slices. Food - 6 Service - 7 Vibe - 8 Price - $$

The sun was out and these guys had Thursday night $25 steak night and a beer garden, so we thought we'd give it a go. We certainly weren't disappointed! The steak was a little fatty on the ends but besides that it was super tender, cooked well and came with a very generous serving of either chips & salad or veggies & mash and your choice of sauce. We also timed it with their very generous happy hour (5-7pm) which was $10 selected pints, $8 house wines and $12 selected cocktails. The staff were friendly and the venue had a cool vibe, with plenty of different places to sit.

Superb friendly service and atmosphere. With an amazing indoor open fire, live music, concert stage, centre room and outdoor area. Jason the manager was very helpful and friendly keeping the open fire burning. The food was delicious and substantial and the drinks are the best value in Melbourne

The Penny Black is a great venue for a relaxing afternoon. They’ve got some great musical guests that play most nights of the week inside and the back garden area is really good for bigger groups of people. We had a very last minute birthday party with 15 or so people and they were able to accomodate us and were so gracious. Highly recommend.
