About the venue
Sitting on the north end of Brunswick Street, the somewhat recently renovated Royal Derby Hotel brings it, old-school pub style. It’s a well-loved local in the area, with trivia nights, uni nights, parma nights and just about every other night in between. It’s often a task to find a truly old-school pub nowadays, but the Royal Derby does manage to make the hunt ever so slightly easier. The Royal Derby succeeds at said easing-of-the-hunt by keeping it simple. The selection of beer is concise but varied, with a good collection on tap. The food is standard pub favourites, but the team at the Royal Derby have focused their attention on high-quality fresh produce. As far as function venues go, the Royal Derby takes reservations for smaller groups, while also offering a private function room. There’s a DJ section in there, as well as a screen for product launches, corporate functions, and slideshows of embarrassing 21st-birthday photos. The Royal Derby does old-school pub, and they do it well. The Royal Derby Hotel is also known as a sports pub to cater to all your live sports including AFL, rugby union, soccer and all the main UFC events. Spend your Saturday night here and enjoy their steak night or trivia night. They even have a pool table! The Royal Derby is located on the corner of Brunswick Street and Alexandra Parade. It’s stupidly convenient to get to. It’s a few minutes from the city by cab, on the 112 tram, on your bike or on your feet.

Reviews for Royal Derby Hotel
Scott Callahan
Barstaff here are on point. I've pulled a few beers in my time and drank a few more. These folks know how to work the jump. Quick, attentive, and a great attitude. Hotel had friendly patrons and good atmosphere. Definitely recommend and will be returning.

Had my youngest daughters 21st here in July 2024. Honestly cannot fault anyone at the pub who helped us put it together. The function room, whilst small was the perfect fit for the amount of people that were invited and the manager Susannah was so obliging and went the next level to ensure we had a good time. The food was fantastic and the overall atmosphere was superb. I highly rate the Royal Derby !!

When I stayed a couple of years ago the beds were super squeaky to the point every move caused me to wake up. However it was $60 a night so I get what I paid for. However the food and in particular the chips and burgers were sublime! And the staff are so friendly and helpful

How great. We called in on the way to dinner and we're surrounded by Lions fans enjoying a big lead over Collingwood. Great atmosphere and great beer and great. Shane to find out later that they lost by 1 point.

I rocked up to this pub for the second time. again the food was good value. the only downfall I have is places that serve food let people come in with their dirty disgusting dogs. people go out to eat to get away from home and not to sit with a flea bag what wanders around the table looking for food. these establishments need to say there's fleas and dogs roaming around this hotel do you want that with your food. usually it is insecure people who have to take their dog everywhere because their dog is just like them insecure and needs attention. I tried adding a picture of the dog walking around looking for scraps
