Most of Fitzroy’s oldest pubs were first licensed in the mid-1860s –The Napier, The STANDARD HOTEL and The Marquis of Lorne to name a few – and it’s a credit to those pubs and their dedicated operators that they’re still among the best in the suburb. Fitzroy’s pubs – like all good pubs – play a strong role in the local community. The Workers Club and The Evelyn host gigs featuring up-and-comers alongside established acts; gastropubs such as The Rose and Andrew McConnell’s Builders Arms serve as both meeting places and affordable fine-diners; and party pubs such as The Rochester just bring the good vibes. Location of our Local : Just a short stroll along Fitzroy st heading in the direction of the city - less than 90seconds from Greeves St.
