Mt View Hotel
Great views, good booze and food that will keep you satisfied on game day make this pub the sportsperson’s favourite.
Overview
On Richmond's Bridge Road, Mt View Hotel takes a classic sports pub and steps things up a notch.
The ground-level bar features a sea of big screens to catch whatever game is playing. There are pool tables and more TVs dotted around the middle floors. But what might be Melbourne's best-kept secret is on the roof: A Bar Above has 360-degree views of the city skyline. Find your way upstairs for sunset or to grab a couple of beers with mates after a match at The 'G.
When it comes to food, the kitchen makes its way across the globe. Bites like duck spring rolls and hot honey popcorn chicken satisfy in the snacks section. There's tacos filled with Argentinian steak, crispy fish or braised king oyster mushrooms. The burger bar pushes classics to their limits. And then there's a whole bunch of pub favourites, including a roster of specials.
Monday is for seafood with a $22 deal on fish and chips, calamari and chips or the seafood basket and chips. Tuesdays are reserved for trivia and $15 tacos. Wednesday brings big parma energy – grab one for $23 and add a pot of Balter XPA for $7. And Thursday is steak night, where you can choose a sirloin for under $30 or the eye fillet for under $50.
When it comes to drinks, Australian and New Zealand wines dominate the list. The taps include a whole bunch of craft and big-name beers. And cocktail specials often spotlight Tassie gins or seasonal spritz.
