Pub
•Young and Jackson is Melbourne’s most iconic hotel, located opposite the landmark steps of Flinders Street Station. Our pub keeps a watchful eye on the busiest part of Melbourne’s CBD, and looks over Federation Square on to the MCG and beyond. A heritage listed building, having been established in 1861, Young and Jackson has been beautifully restored and refurbished over the years to bring together a blend of boutique bar and a traditional pub. Home to the infamous, Chloe, she is a Melbourne icon, mascot for the HMAS Melbourne, an extremely fine work of art; she is an ingénue, a nymph, a celebrity. She is Chloe, the famous nude portrait which has graced the walls of the Young and Jackson Hotel since 1909.

A cozy and beautifully designed restaurant with a stunning view of Flinders Street. The staff were polite, helpful, and genuinely nice. We had booked the Cherie room, and everything was perfect—the food was excellent, and the service was great. Highly recommended!
This bar was the best find of the day. It had an old-world charm, with tables thoughtfully spaced throughout the spacious venue. The staff were incredibly friendly, making the experience even better.
Dined here on Anzac Day. The service was a bit lacking, they took our food orders but didn't ask if we wanted any coffees or drinks. Took almost an hour for food to come and was mostly cold when it arrived. Toast came with eggs on top and butter on the side....The wait staff were quite short when it came to paying and was not overall a great experience.

Staff are basic with little to no personality. Food is ok 7/10 Coffee is basic 6/10 Other than the location, this venue hasn't much else going for it. For the price you pay I would expect more flavour in the food, better quality of coffee and staff with the ability to interact.
