Marquis of Lorne
The verdict
New and improved, the Marquis of Lorne sits proudly on the corner of George and Kerr Streets in Fitzroy. With a renovated interior, the iconic Melbourne pub has maintained a uniquely classical look and feel. The guys behind some of Melbourne's best cafes – Touchwood and Tall Timber – are in charge, so you know you're in great hands. With the Head Chef hailing from Epocha and the Builders Arms, the approachable bar and grazing menu offers tasty treats such as Pacific oysters, raw snapper, and a classic cheeseburger! Enjoy your Sunday session sitting on their sunny rooftop, or organise a special event in their 12-seater private dining room.
