Brandon Hotel

We’re open all Grand Final weekend, as usual, even for the Friday Public Holiday - and no public holiday surcharge!

If you’re still looking for a spot to watch the Grand Final, we have tables available in the Front Bar or the Dining Room - it doesn’t matter where you are, you won’t miss a minute of the action!

Book online via our website or give us a call on 9347 2382.

We have finally hit September when Melbourne comes alive with finals! Book a table this weekend with all games live in the front bar. Also tonight with thanks to for our Tuckerbox Thursday raffle will be drawn at 8pm!

There’s always a deal to be had at the pub - every day of the week!
So many in fact, we couldn’t even fit Friday on this post.
But you should never need an excuse to head to the pub on a Friday!

If you do though, would $4 glasses of beer, $6 glasses of wine, sausage rolls on special and the Joker Poker draw at 8pm be enough to get you here? 😉

NOW POURING: Double IPA - this beer packs a punch at 7.8%, but you can feel really good about drinking it still!
We love what this crew are doing with their beers, and their commitment to minimising waste and maximising sustainability, and we think you’ll love this beer, now pouring as a limited keg on tap.

Come on down and give it a try, and if you love it, you can try more of what they have to offer over in Clifton Hill at too!

Today we said goodbye, to a dearly loved member of the extended Brandon family. Our longest serving customer (he was drinking here in the 1960’s!) by a mile, but he was so much more than that.
He was part of the fabric of this pub and he will be so greatly missed.
We’ll think of you always, every time we crack a Cascade Light, turn on the races or have a bet, or when we have a chicken dinner. Vale Bobby.

New face on our rotational tap here at the Brandon!
