Like taking a step back in time, the Railway Hotel Fitzroy North is a charming and welcoming neighbourhood pub straight out of the 70’s, and the perfect spot for dinners with the family, knock-offs after work or weekend catch-ups with mates. A no-nonsense pub stocked with a generous range of draught beers on tap, and your classic pub tipple and boasting an impressive kitchen, serving quality Italian-inspired pub meals in line with its Mediterranean roots. A secluded, vine-sheltered beer garden is the cherry on top, providing the perfect spot to enjoy an al fresco meal or kick back and relax with a few cold ones.

The Railway is everything your favourite local should be, a true neighbourhood gem.

    Praise be - a pub that firstly, does Spag bol, and secondly, doesn’t charge absurd amounts for it. It was delicious too. Loved this place.

    Wait for food was over an hour then to be told that they had run out of what we ordered while the table next to us enjoyed the meal that was unavailable When the food finally arrived it was cold , dry and we asked for refund Never to return which is disappointing for a local pub

    We didn't eat at The Railway, we went for the Jazz/Blues Band with singer Yolanda Ingley which was great. Sunday afternoon session 4 - 6. Great. Lots of people in the front bar and in the beer garden. The vibe was good. Plus they sell Carlton Draught and Great Northern. Win, win, win.

    Great food in a friendly local pub. Real eclectic feel with families having dinner with their kids, friends meeting, and the Friday night beers crowd. Good place, only slight negative was it was a bit cool but it is winter in Melbourne 😎

    There was a great atmosphere at the Railway and the location is perfect for us. The service was friendly and efficient and we liked the table location on the edge of the hubbub. Some of our party found the food delicious and some had dishes that were a bit dry/ not as fresh as they had hoped.
