The Lomond Hotel

Lovely meals, prompt service, nice drinks. Plus we had some good craic from the fiddlers & flautist playing Irish tunes.

Ambiance, good food, comfortable on your own & friendly service. Great new setup, with other new spaces.

The city pub with a country feel. Roll out the live music and it will be bliss. Great food, great staff and great oil people.

Great pub with tasty, well priced food. One of my favourite places to visit and have a meal while listening to some good music. Well worth a visit.

Excellent all round place in terms of service, quality and atmosphere. That big lettuce out the back gets me every time. Five stars!

This is the only place I've been to that has a truly local atmosphere. It is unique and special among pubs in Melbourne.

This place is great. It has lots of different areas for you to choose. The bistro area, the pub area, the back yard area, the sports room. The staff is very friendly as well. The food was delicious. I heard they have live music most of the nights which is great. I'll come back and try other stuffs from the menu.

Quiet local oriented pub. Live music, no pokies, standard pub fare food wise. Tram stop right outside

Absolute hidden gem of a pub for bands. Unbelievable quality of music night to night. And as an Irish man it’s hard to find a good pint of Guinness in Melbourne so you generally head to Irish pubs but only 2/3 around worth talking about. This place is honestly the best pint of Guinness I’ve had in Melbourne and last time I was here was six years ago and it was the same quality. Fabulous!

Super comfy and friendly. A little bit of a rabbit warren so no problem finding your favorite corner to chill with friends or solo.
Good food and bar prices and friendly staff with a locals kind of scene.

Ate at the Lomond tonight and we were very disappointed. The food took at least 45 minutes to arrive with other parties, who arrived well after we did, getting their food before us. When it did arrive the portions were small and luke warm while the accompanying chips were piping hot. We figured that our food had sat in the kitchen while the chips were cooked. Didn't bother sending the food back as we didn't want to wait any longer. The food was just about OK but not what you'd hope for. The service was all over the place, at one point we were asked what we'd ordered and then later on asked if we'd ordered at all! When it came to pay the bill I was again asked what we'd ordered and where we'd sat (despite the fact that it was the same person who had served us). Most of the diners seemed to be enjoying their food, hearty warm serves delivered in good time, so maybe we just had bad luck. Either way we won't be back and will not recommend. Unless you want to wait a long time for a small luke warm meal. The first time in many years that I've walked out of a pub hungry and deeply unimpressed.

Went there from CBD on Tram (Literally right outside) to have Sunday dinner and listen to live band.
Wasn't disappointed.

Good relaxed/casual setup - mixed clientele, band was great (actually better than i thought they might be.), got a table, had dinner and a drink, caught the tram back to CBD.

All round, a great night!

Would recommend it.

I live 50m away and go out of my way not to go here or their bottle shop. I was excited to live so close to a pub when i first moved into the area, but my first visit there quickly dashed that. A plethora of seeds hunch over the bar at any time of the day and gawk at anybody that walks in like they've never seen a person with all their teeth before. The staff give preferential treatment to this group of charming patrons because their names are simple enough for them to remember i presume. If this were Queensland, this pub would be shut or torched by now.

Melbourne’s favourite live music venue this side of the Yarra! The chicken schnitzel was tasty and service was good. The music is fun too. Support live music

Hit and miss. Sometimes good sometimes not. Had a few great reasonably priced meals, had one or 2 not so great. Some of the staff lovely and helpful, some not quite as attentive. The live music is ok, not fantastic

Nice family-run place to have a beer and watch a band. Very relaxed and has a lot of live music

In my opinion the best pub in Melbourne! Whether for a sports game out back, the great beer selection on tap, the very eclectic no-frills crowd, the wonderful bands week after week, or the chill yet pleasant crew (and amazing owner that is James) - Cheers for a great time, every time!

This unpretentious family-run pub is my go-to local in East Brunswick. Friendly, welcoming people, hearty food, homey vibe.

Popped in for a beer and to watch the cricket. Friendly, beer was cold, cricket was on. I was happy. Live music venue so that's a binus. Will be back to try the food!

Some of the best live music you could see anywhere in an inclusive atmosphere with friendly bar service. The beer garden/smoking area has a nook where you can connect your phone to the sound system to share your tunes. It could become your second loungeroom.
