"Really disappointed with the lamb sunday roast, barely a scrap of actual meat served on both our plates. Literally just fat. Unfortunately the 4 vegetables we did eat weren’t enough to save this dish."
Thankfully I only come here for the beer, which is great. The staff quality lately is shocking, though. There was a time when I could have a short conversation about the brewer or beer style before trundling off and drinking my beer while reviewing a conference paper or two. I tried doing that the other day and got a sarcastic response. The staff seem to spend most of their time staring at their phones or disappearing into the back room. They seem to resent the idea of collecting glasses or engaging the customers in conversation.
The food and beer menu never fail to delight, and at prices that are more than reasonable for the quality and care in preparation and presentation. This visit was no different. Also, we very much appreciate getting a table in the area we requested in our booking note. The staff was as pleasant and helpful as ever. Consistently a pleasure. The Local continues to be one of our favorite places for a night out with a meal and a few beers. And yes, I recommend the Local quite regularly. Many thanks!
Sunday roast was freezing cold so sent it back. Was far too rare, and even heated up. There was also only one potato on the whole plate. What roast comes with one roast potato. Steak my friend had was the same. Steak comes with a really tomato salad and nothing else for 38 dollars. seriously do better !!! the bar man/ waiter was great. Took the roast of the bill and offered two free drinks. But what is going on in the kitchen?
We were in the area and decided to check out their rooftop bar. Since it was Friday, they had their Friday knockoffs Happy Hours from 4pm to 7pm, where you can get oysters (til sold out) for $1.50 and selected pints and house wines for $8. Very chilled-out place, with a great atmosphere and a good selection of tap beer.

It’s in a relatively unassuming location but this place is always packed out. It’s cosy and service is quick with QR codes so you can order to your table. Beer selection is good too but if you’re after something more specialty, go next door to MilkHead (you can also order food from here over to the bar .
Great selection of craft beers which rotate all the time, staff are friendly and very knowledgeable. Food is also excellent, especially steak night on a Wed, where the choice of steak rotates. Decor is very quaint and the atmosphere is always very welcoming. Highly rated.
Really enjoyed our evening at The Local Taphouse. The cider was excellent and the food was too quality. Layers upon layers of ham on the parma. So good. the only downside was waiting so long for the food to arrive. Not a place for a quick bite. Very reasonable prices.
Great venue with European inspired fit out! The bar staff are super friendly providing a great selection of craft beers that can be enjoyed in a relaxing alfresco rooftop style bar area. Great place to kick back and relax with friends, the bar is also dog friendly.

Just a real find, food off the chart, beer a little pricey, but possibly one of the best bars in Melbourne, staff are just some of the nicest people on the planet, I'm almost hopefully no one find out about this place, thanks guys you made our weekend.
