High St Hotel

Overview

Prahran's High St Hotel has reopened with a fresh new direction and energised spirit just in time for the silly season. At its heart, it maintains its strong sense of community, with a quality hospitality offering, inclusive atmosphere and approachable space. 

The pub is led by Nic and Bianca Gordon (former owners of Blue Tongue Wine Bar), who have transformed the venue into a contemporary, multi-purpose space to create a place where people can truly connect. "Our vision is to reimagine a once iconic venue into a vibrant and multi-space destination, catering for all that work, live and play in our community — and beyond our dynamic postcode."

On the menu, you'll find tried and tested pub classics such as fish and chips, hand-crumbed chicken parmas, Victorian grass-fed steaks, and cheeseburgers with seasoned fries. There are plenty of snacky small plates to get you through an afternoon of bevvies, such as deep-fried lasagne bites, crab and prawn toasts, bresaola crumpets, and haloumi with apple and honey. Bianca says, "Every dish is designed to strike the right balance between quality and approachability, creating a dining experience that feels both familiar and special." 

With a mega screen and multiple other large televisions, the beer garden is set to become the local go-to for match day. It's just as friendly to families, with a dedicated kids' menu and a welcoming atmosphere. And a strong sense of family and community is what sets the place apart. The venue manager and assistant are Nic's nephew and cousin; Bianca's mum helped redesign the interiors; and as part of a program to give back, the pub will launch an annual $10,000 community grant for local sporting clubs in the area.
