The Grosvenor is our local. It serves Bistro food and fine wine in a renovated late 1800s pub with industrial-chic décor. The food menu is extensive and features many of the pub classics, with steaks being their specialty. The Grosvenor's also home to the St Kilda Burger Bar; their burgers are served up inside and also available for takeaway from the drive-through area at the rear. Monday - Thursday evenings there are specials available on a range of their popular meals, plus happy hour prices on drinks. The Grosvenor has been voted the 2016 People's Choice Award in the Time Out Pub Awards for 2016. We think it's well deserved too.

Since 1987, Firebrand Sourdough Bakery, in Ripponlea has been making real bread with real flavour and texture using age-old bread making methods. All of their breads are hand-shaped and baked in an original 1930's wood-fired oven, either in tins or directly on the brick floor of the oven, and all are made from organic or unbleached flour, natural whole-wheat leaven (sourdough starter), water and sea-salt. Delicious!
