Hi brains trust, can anyone recommend a place (preferably close-ish to Docklands) for a roast meat lunch on a Saturday? I promise I’ve Googled and I’m having trouble finding anywhere.
Can only speak for the inner norf, but the Croxton Hotel does one - fairly basic but cheap. The Junction Hotel on the border of Preston also does quite a good one I’m told but I haven’t tried it yet. Both places are on the 86 tramline - about 30 mins from the CBD maybe a bit less on weekends. Quite good parking at the Junction - well good for Preston. Short trip from there to the Preston market after or before lunch too. The Camden Town Hotel in Caulfield South used to do a very good one, but that was pre-covid but might be worth investigating - 64 tramline. The roast was usually on their specials board. Haven’t been there since covid but worth calling them to see if the roast is still a thing.
Sorry not quite meeting the brief, but since no other answers, the only place I know in the city is Melba Brasserie at the Langham. They have roast as part of the buffet. But it’s fancy.

Do you mean a classic pub roast lunch or something a bit fancier?
Classic pub Sunday roast lunch is exactly what we’re after, just on a Saturday (that’s the day my FIL wants to go out for his birthday).

Thank you! That’s really helpful!
