Union Hotel

Union Hotel is a neighbourhood pub on Union Street built around a leafy beer garden and a solid rotating craft beer selection. The kitchen runs a straightforward pub menu of burgers, parmas and fried chicken alongside comfort classics, and the room doubles as a venue for live music and trivia nights.

Reviewers highlight the beer garden as the standout feature, along with a kitchen menu that punches above typical pub fare, and describe the space as suited to both a casual weeknight pint and semi-private events.

It's a solid, unfussy option in the Union Street/Sydney Road pocket of Brunswick for anyone after a proper pub rather than a cocktail-focused bar.
