established in 1874, born in 2013

Everyone loves the vibe of the Palace – a country pub in Melbourne where everybody knows your name and they're always glad you came, there is a wide range of beers and ales on 16 rotating taps, sports and entertainment, games, a beer garden, bistro, events spaces, as well as long wooden tables on the grassed area out front where the atmosphere is buzzing, especially on a summer’s eve.

The Palace Hotel would be known in the UK as a Free House - a privately owned and proudly independent pub not tied to any brewery.
