Went for food and drinks. The place has a good vibe with music that was easy on the ear and not too loud. There was a lively quiz night going on out front that seemed fun. Fish tacos were great ,as was the steak I had and it was all served in good time with a smile

My partner & I hosted our wedding reception at the Citizen Space in Melbourne Public and it was beyond our expections! From the moment we stepped into the venue, the atmosphere was filled with joy, love, and excitement. The venue itself was perfect for the occasion – spacious and yet intimate, with just the right balance of sophistication and comfort. Bethany & the team were incredibly attentive, ensuring that everything ran smoothly. From meeting in January face-to-face to discuss our plans to seeing everything come together to answering our millions of questions in between, Bethany was a delight to work with! On the night itself, the service was top-notch! The main courses were flavorful and fresh (shoutout to the chefs for the amount of fried chicken), while the desserts were simply delicious. Overall, this wedding reception was a beautiful, joyous celebration. It was an evening filled with laughter, dancing, delicious food, and unforgettable memories.

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.

Busy venue but attentive service, halloumi and burgers were delicious and drinks were great value. The owner was very welcoming. Would highly recommend, will be coming back next week! 👍

The staff are so lovely here! Great place for a casual pint. The venue has so much potential! Only criticism is that the beer offering could be more interesting. Otherwise Fabulous. 😁
