About the venue

Nestled on Carlisle Street in St Kilda East, Balaclava Hotel has recently undergone renovations to now offer not only the perfect spot for our locals, but a great bar and bistro for visitors to the area. Rich in history, we’ve been a favourite in the St Kilda area for years. We’re the perfect balance between a historical pub and a fresh, contemporary bar. If it’s food you’re after, look no further than the bistro at Balaclava Hotel. We’ve got all the pub classics, including chicken parma, fish and chips, and succulent Graziers steaks. We also offer an enticing selection of entrees and modern dishes sure to excite even the fussiest eaters. Balaclava Hotel has a large bar downstairs with generous seating and the perfect spot to watch the world go by out the front window.

I had my 40th birthday at the rooftop and the team at the Balaclava hotel made it a seamless process from the beginning. Lee and Annette from the functions team were super helpful and friendly. The rooftop is a fantastic spot for a function, love the exposed brick and it has an inviting atmosphere and layout. It also has a lift which was helpful for some of the older guests (and the ones who had too many ha!). Food was yum and fair priced and they catered to all dietary requirements. Great place to host a function. Highly recommend.

Ordering food using QR code at the table. The serving size is generous, tastes pretty good. The venue has a rooftop sitting, sports bar, bistro and gaming area.

I recently had my 50th in the rooftop bar at the Balaclava Hotel, Lee, Amber and the rest of the team were great! Everything went perfectly. The venue itself is awesome, with many people commenting. The food was well prepared and good quality, and plenty of it. Overall, great memories and I highly recommend considering the venue.

A surprise on Carlisle St! We came in expecting a standard St Kilda pub environment, and after the rooftop dining was recommended, we made out way upstairs to an awesome rooftop dining area with a great chilled ambience!! The staff were all excellent. Riley especially was great and made sure we had everthing we needed. The food was served quick enough that we weren't waiting but not so fast that we felt rushed. Oh, and it tasted GREAT! The Veggies that came with the (yummy!) Parma were top quality. The garlic and cheese bread was superb and the Korean chicken appetisers were SO GOOD! In short, the Balaclava Hotel didn't just exceed our expectations, it blew them away! Definitely a diamond in the rough!
