The Three Crowns Hotel is a family-run affair, and the Allens want you to feel at home in their second home.

BAR SIDE

The North Melbourne bar and live music venue attracts a diverse crowd, where musos, suits, hipsters and families all mingle freely.

Head Chef Chris Smith has an affinity with American style cooking, and it’s literally written all over the menu. If you’re stopping by for a quick snack the mac & cheese croquettes are a winner, as are the buffalo wings with Creole blue cheese sauce and celery. For something more substantial, the Three Crowns Hotel has become quite well known for their American-style cheeseburger, but you also can’t beat a juicy chargrilled steak. Local craft beers and cider can be found on tap, which is a lovely nod to neighbouring businesses and adds to the community feel of this pub. They even have a ‘locals’ day on Sundays where North Melbournites get a 10% discount. The wine list is a mix of local and interstate ventures and has been selected to suit every palate.

Fun Fact

Built in 1867, Three Crowns Hotel is one of Melbourne’s oldest pubs, and has gone through many a facelift since its humble beginnings.
