June 2025 - Enjoyed an early dinner (5.30pm to 7.30pm) with a friend at PJ O’Briens Irish Pub. Service was excellent (timely and attentive) for drinks and food. Atmosphere was great and not too noisy - we were in the Sidebar area - it’s a lovely restaurant area whereas it it is booth style seating next door in the main bar area. Food was very good. The croquettes weren’t served with the advertised tomato relish and I forgot to request it - just too hungry! The steak, mash and peppercorn sauce were also great. Good range of dishes and would definitely return to try them.

This is something out of the ordinary now. They have table service, absolutely love that. The amazing friendly staff come to the table and take your order, bring you water on your arrival and continue to refill it and come back and ask if everything is good or if we need more drinks etc. Rory was our server. He was very bubbly, polite and friendly. We loved having a quick little chat with him. His service was amazing, very tentative to us and watching him work, he hussled all night. They had a live band playing which was great and because of Rory making the place a friendly place we moved to the bar after dinner and had a few more drinks listening to the music. Will definitely go back here on our next Melbourne visit. Thank you Tory for making us realise there are still fun people put there who love their job.

The pj spice bag was a treat, went down well with a pint. Definitely would come here again to eat this.

If you want an Irish pub that served food then this is the place for you. Most importantly is the food is really nice, the atmosphere is better and the staff are friendly. A nice pint of Guinness!, Cider or wherever wise takes you fancy. On the right day there is live music which is normally a good standard.

Went for pints of Guinness on NYE and the vibe was 10/10. Good crowd, rockstar staff and amazing live music. Never a disappointment here. will always be a favorite spot in the CBD/ southbank
