A hidden secret in the backstreets of Carlton North.

True corner pub, and home away from home, the Brandon's charming front bar remains true to the traditional style of the corner pub, and is where those in the know head for a pint and a meal. Follow through to the dining room where the menu offers innovative takes on old classics and a modern interpretation of pub grub.

    Outside is lovely. Service is brilliant. Food used to be good fare at a reasonable price but now more experimental and more expensive. Cozzie livs?

    Great Friday night drinks vibe spilling out all over the footpath. Good fun, good food and drink - icy Carlton Draught on tap.

    Sunday Roast was the best - we had roast brisket which was absolutely delicious. The only thing missing was Yorkshire Pudding. Will definitely be going back .

    Food was good but waiter did not place our order and so meals did not arrive. After a one and half hour wait, the waiter told us they had not placed it and apologised. They did not put us at the head of the queue and it was another 20 + minute wait. To compensate all we were offered was larger drinks (drinks already part of the meal deal). Mistakes do happen but when they do happen, a better response is expected.

    The food was sensational. And the service great. The only minor let down was the wine did not quite match the level of the food. All good though as I really enjoyed having beer instead.
