Royal Saxon

Serving proper pub food, this is a vibe worth checking out. Nothing will blow your mind but it's quality food, with quality service, absolute quality low maintenance super chill and an upper casual atmosphere that is dog friendly with quality prices - how can you go wrong? A little down the way from the party scene of Swan St, shouldn't deter you as it boasts a four-legged kid friendly courtyard and a 3hr happy hour every day from 3pm. And the food is as decent and stylish as the venue. Loaded with mozzarella, the Garlic Bread Pull Apart was #cheesepull porn of epic proportions. The Pork & Chive Dumplings were packed with flavour and the Lemongrass Fried Chicken was great for sharing. The Vermicelli Bowl comes with a choice of grilled beef, chicken or tofu but missed the spring roll addition. And to have a $20 steak night on a Friday is unheard of! And in itself is the best reason to dine here. But the best reason to stay is the Boozy Scoop Alcoholic Gelato! Made to taste exactly like the real thing, these cocktail icecreams were great and housed a decent 40% alcohol content. This place and menu was made to be able to dine here on the regular and in the Summer will be a great location to enjoy a drink or three.

Royal Saxon is a really nice venue with pleasant customer service. There are options for either indoor or outdoor dining/drinks. The lunch menu for $23 which includes either wine, beer or soft drink and a good range of meals to choose from is excellent value. I ordered the lemon pepper chicken poke bowl and it was delicious. I was able to order directly to my table via a QR code. Thank you for a nice dining experience. I will definitely be back again for lunch!

Fantastic pub in South Yarra with a great vibe - good alternative to the clubs around. Happy hour prices are fantastic Ordered the chips and a side of olives and smoked Bocconcini, so good. Excellent selection of entrees. Espresso Martinis are grand here, good selection of other drinks too. Will be back, honestly give it a go. May wish to make a reservation if in groups or during busy periods

Average CUB owned public serving commercial beers. Called in for a quick beer, and it was average. My partners beer was so bad we couldn't drink it. Now that's saying something lol. And not in a good way.

Hosted my father's 80th here with 20 people. Set menu for lunch with lots of share plates, and everyone able to choose their main from one of 5 options. The food was magnificent, the service was faultless. Simon looked after us on his own and nothing was lacking. The vibe was super cruisy for a Sunday lunch. Would highly recommend

Live music and courtyard vibes🔥 could not have asked for better atmosphere for few drinks and snacks! Do checkout their everyday specials for lower price!

We moved to Melbourne in June and this is one of our many local pubs. This is our fave. Dog friendly, really relaxed vibe and the staff are amazing. Steak night always a winner, especially Friday night before footy. We make it a regular thing to walk the dogs down here for a pint most Sundays 🍻🙌

We returned here after a bit of a hiatus. It was pumping on a Tuesday for lunch. Service was super quick despite the crowds. Food was brilliant. Highlight was the staff. So cool, friendly and efficient. We went back to work very happy people.
