I was really looking forward to enjoy our new year eve on 31 night, but unfortunately, my experience was a letdown. I ordered a vodka with juice, but what I got was a watered-down version that tasted more like lime juice and soda water than vodka. We are 11 people all together and spend around $1000. Needless to say, I won’t be returning to Melbourne Public anytime soon. If you’re looking for a bar that serves authentic, full-flavored cocktails, I’d recommend taking your business elsewhere.

We went there on Sunday when they had the family day animal farm was on. Fun fill day for the whole family. Did not know they have family day every Sunday so it was lovely. There are plenty of space for pram and baby chair. The food size were huge! The kids burger is like adult burger size. The calamari and steak cooked to perfection. Full bar also for adults drinks.

Here I’m on my journey to find great burgers in Melbourne unexpectedly stumbling into this little gem. I used to walk past this pub 4-5 days a week when I used to live in Southbank and never even went inside. Not sure why though, may it’s the ramp, maybe it’s the entrance or maybe it’s jnr being a weirdo. Been to every other restaurant and pub in that lane except this one. And last week on a hot day, thirsty for a beer I walked in with my friend who suggested we grab burgers too, I thought why not. Why did I stay away from this place? It’s damn good burger possibly almost as good as (maybe only slightly less than) burger boys AKA Saving Grace. Buns excellent Meat patties juicy AF Lettuce crunchy Cheese melty And the fries are perfectly seasoned to munch on while sipping a cold one. The staff there are super friendly too and venue is quite clean and well maintained. Now I gotta come back again soon!

I’m giving such a low review due to the size portions paid for sliders. When you pay $22 you expect these thing to at least twice the size, the ambience was great and plenty of drinks options which are also getting up their in price ( good enough for 1 or 2 drinks before your broke

We recently visited Melbourne Public and had a fantastic experience. We specifically went on a Friday to take advantage of the $2 oyster special, and it did not disappoint! The atmosphere was lively, with great music and plenty of big screens for sports fans. The staff were friendly and made sure we had everything we needed. What we had: 🦪 Oysters $2 each 🍝 Seafood Linguine $32 🌯 Chicken Quesadilla $17 🌼 Popcorn Cauliflower $17 🍟 Beer Battered Chips $12.5 Highly recommend Melbourne Public for a casual outing with friends or a fun evening out. Can't wait to return!
