Pub
•Whether you are looking for a place for conversation or good food, the College Lawn Hotel bar in Melbourne could be for you. Nestled in the leafy back streets of Prahran, College Lawn Hotel is a hidden gem, featuring a lounge bar, restaurant, bottle shop and sun-drenched beer garden. This pub has great Australian food and drinks at reasonable prices. Their wine list is surprisingly long and has something to offer everyone, while the food menu offers everything from risotto to dinner salads. As far as function venues go, the College Lawn Hotel has three areas that can be reserved. The Terrace area can handle 100 standing people, the Vinyl Room can hold 150 standing people and the Beer Gardens' capacity depends on availability. From birthday celebrations and engagement parties to corporate events, this is one of the most popular function venues in Melbourne. Come and soak up this sunshine and enjoy Happy Hour and live music from 5 pm. With so much on offer, it's no wonder why this is a favourite amongst locals and visitors alike.
Towards the Punt Rd end of Greville St, the Hotel is right near Prahran Station, so getting there is easy. There are also trams running down nearby Chapel St if that is your preferred method of transport.

First time here with a few friends that go regularly. Cheap schnitzel on Wednesdays which are amazing and delicious. Tastes very fresh. Also got the cobbler and was absolutely to die for. Very good drinks and fast service too.
We booked a table for 4pm and had a grand time. Come 6:30pm, David told us our table was booked by John. He made another table free for us, wiped down tables that were rain affected, kept having a laugh every time we changed tables, and continued to have a laugh. What a good venue with great staff! Highly recommend!
Food was delicious and served very quickly. Courtyard was lovely to sit in. Ate lunch on a Sunday afternoon and the pub was very quiet, but it looks like it would be a great sociable place to for summer drinks or dining.
Steak sandwich was not great. Bacon was almost certainly cooked well ahead of time and like chewing on leather, whilst the sandwich itself was just bland. Needs Mayo/relish/rocket or something to elevate it up and ditch the wet veggies like tomato and beetroot (IMO). Also if you don’t like lemon pepper type seasonings, ask for plain salt on your chips. Has this funky sweet/sour taste. I’m giving 2 stars due to the fact that the Parmas looked a whole lot better in our group order and also after telling staff about the less than satisfactory steak sandwich they offered a replacement meal, but after persevering through the steak sandwich I wasn’t hungry for another meal.
Great pub for watching sporting events. The outside areas are perfect for handling the larger crowds you expect to be around for the larger more popular events. The inside bar is a decent size too and they've recently moved the bar from the centre of the room to one side which I believe has improved the layout significantly. Every time I've eaten here the food has been of decent quality and decent portion sizes. Give it a go next time you're in the area.
