The hotel was perfect for a Sunday catch up for lunch and a few drinks. Sunday Roast was delicious and was perfect with a glass of red seated near the open fire. Very cozy and friendly atmosphere. Staff all engaging and helpful.

We popped down for the $25 steak night but ended up getting a few entrees also. Steaks were cooked perfectly but the standout was honestly the calamari so tender and flavourful. Service was fantastic. All the staff were friendly and caring. Really enjoyed our night.

DONT GO HERE turned 18 today and wouldn’t let us in, refused service. Lady at front very rude and spreading misinformation to other customers about us. Never going here again, neither should you 🫶 There are always other places, this is Melbourne be so for real. In response to the owner, we were ALL over the age of 18, it was my friends 18th birthday on the day we went. We were allowed in but the lady proceeded to say it had to be the day after you turn 18, as in you need to have been 18 for a whole day before you can legally be served alcohol.

Spent the afternoon at the Temperance with friend's. Went to watch the footy and have a few laughs. The footy wasn't on initially but the co workers were more than happy to put it on when we asked. The beer was crispy cold and the atmosphere was great. We also had the sharing plate and a few other goodies to eat. Food was excellent.. really hit the spot. We moved here about 7 months ago and have been looking for a local.. We might have just found it! We will be back. Thanks to the team at the Temperance.

Located on chapel this pub offered special night on weekdays. I love the idea of parma night with different flavours “classic, Italian, Mexican and more” I tried all my favourite is the Mexican with Jalapeños, spicy, creamy, cheesy, taste so good. The size of the chicken is enough but I would love little bit more chips/cabbage and a bigger plate to be more comfortable to eat. As a regular customer I would like more consistency on the plate because sometimes if it was my first time I would probably not comeback unfortunately but I think it’s easy to fix. Overall the staff are friendly even if sometimes I have to go back to the bar because they forget my request. I hope the time I spent to write this review will be worth it and they will consider my advice. Bryan is very friendly and welcoming.
