Cosy little pub on the corner of Little Bourke Street and Russell Street. Prices are very reasonable. Friendly staff. A spot to have a drink while waiting to regroup for a night out. In the centre of Chinatown location is great

Love this pub, I always come here when I come to Melbourne. Traditional Aussie pub, good prices, nice old stainglass with the old-school tin ceilings.

Good happy hour, sells stella and does pints. Friendly staff, good location to go to before going out for food in Chinatown or elsewhere in cbd. I prefer the vibes during the late afternoon or early evening, but it’s quite good later on too
