Spread Eagle Hotel
372 Bridge Road, Richmond VIC 3121, Australia
Built about 127 years ago, the Spread Eagle Hotel - or the “Spready” to regulars - has been keeping Richmond locals well fed and watered for just as long. Of course, the inside has been refurbished, but the old girl’s looking pretty good for her age. The Spready’s the kind of local where regulars are remembered (along with their drink of choice), and the vibe is a welcoming, warm one. There’s a dining area next to public bar, balances a sophisticated ambience with a bit of Richmond character. If you’re on the hunt for a function venue, the Spread Eagle caters for groups ranging in size from 20 to 150. It’s a good pick for event birthdays, engagements, office Christmas parties, and sporting club events. Besides that, the Spready caters to corporate functions, from board room discussions to larger workshops. The Spready is located on Bridge Road, on the corner of Coppin Street. The 48 and 75 tram lines both run along Bridge. The 78 and 79 trams are also nearby. The CBD is just a few minutes away.
