Royal Derby Hotel

Food is absolutely delicious. Service is wonderful. Lovely courtyard which is doggy friendly. Love it

Best tap beer in Fitzroy, the meals are top quality and the staff friendly and inviting. TAB available plenty of screens to watch the Magpies beat Brisbane in the Grand Final once again in 2024.

Loved this place, great service from the staff, great indoor seating, meals were great and well priced. Definitely a great place for a night out and dinner.

Take note, this is how a pub needs to treat its customers, Every staff member was extremely friendly, knowledgeable and service orientated.

The rooms are clean and very comfortable. The only drawback is who was in the room before you. On my second stay at the hotel the smell of smoke in room 10 was very strong. The food in the pub was fantastic. I would stay here again.

After moving from Qld to Melbourne we were wanting to find a great place to watch our Brisbane Lions, well we found it in the Royal Derby. We have been a number of times and in particular we were made to feel very welcome by the lovely lady Ella behind the bar. She really does light the place up.

The food has been great when we have eaten there and the drink prices are very reasonable. We will certainly continue to haunt this great old pub.

Great outdoor area with good atmosphere. Only popped in quickly but really enjoyed the relaxed vibe early Saturday arvo

What an outstanding local community pub full of friendly and welcoming staff. The food, especially the chips, which are in short supply here in a Melbourne, was scrumptious and if you like to watch major sporting events with a great atmosphere then there is no better place in Melbourne than the Royal Derby Hotel. Look forward to seeing you there again soon.

I like the room. It's cozy and clean. Love the high ceilings and the wooden floor. However, the shared bathroom, showers and kitchen were not that great. It's decent for backpackers on a budget and it's in a great location. But if I'm on holiday again in Melbourne, I'd look for a more comfortable place with a private bathroom, etc. Thank you!

Absolutely fantastic, congratulations to the owner Cane, and all staff, what a great function that was put on today.will be certainly going back there again.

Went there for a beer and a feed after seeing Elvis at IMAX yesterday!
Had a fabulous Guinness and amazing steaks! $20! Sunday night special!
The chips were perfect - crispy, golden brown and perfect size - and the side salad was really delicious!
Great atmosphere - a real “local”!
Highly recommend

Went for a late Sunday lunch and to watch the footy. Plenty of rooms that are able to show different sports and a decent beer garden. Staff were friendly and great vibe. Parma was decent

Great food, awesome range of drinks, the staff are fantastic! I highly recommend you visit if you're around Fitzroy!
Go Lions

Great pub. Great staff. And amazing atmos. Especially for watching the footy!
GO LIONS! ️

Brisbane Lions’ official social venue in Melbourne.
Ella was super friendly and very helpful.

Place is great staff member called abe went above and beyond to make sure our time there was great

Chicken Parma was excellent, but add gravy to make life extra good. Watched a Lions game with the faithful. Good atmosphere. Easy place to be.

Nice traditional unpretentious pub, not too crowded, north of the busiest part of Fitzroy. Pleasant beer garden out the back.

This is the best sports bar in Melbourne by far, has Tab facilities and a great selection of beers. Gotta Love it!

Hardly any heaters in outdoor seating chips was expensive at $9 and i had to park a km away as there is no adequate parking close by
