Railway Hotel
About Railway Hotel
Established in 1856 (originally named Napoleon the Third), The Railway Hotel is one of Melbourne’s enduring classic pubs.
Known as "Pub that Time Forgot", a pub with rustic hardwood bars, retro glass cabinets, an old pool table, and a tiki-styled courtyard that transports you to a cozy, bygone era.
The menu is a hearty take on modern Australian pub classics: steak, schnitzels, burgers, seafood, pulled-pork mac’n’cheese, and signature Beef & Guinness pie on Thursday special nights (only $25 with mash and peas).
The bar offers a curated wine list and a wide selection of local and craft beers, with $9 jugs and $5 glasses of wine during happy hour specials.
Specials
- Monday evenings feature Tacos & Trivia with $5 tacos and trivia hosted by Funky Bunch, 7–9 pm.
- Thursday nights are Pie Day—served with mash, peas & gravy for $25.
- Wednesday steak night often features deals like $17 Porterhouse steak, Melbourne’s “Best Steak Night.
Boasting South Melbourne’s largest beer garden with full daylight, plus two open fireplaces, a large central bar, and pool tables inside.
