Beer battered Corner Inlet flathead tails & chips.
One of my earliest food memories as a kid is sitting in a small restaurant on the wharf at Lakes Entrance eating fresh flathead tails and chips. These prehistoric looking lizard fish with venomous spikes are, in our humble opinion, the ultimate battered fish.
The almost sweet, flaky flesh when partnered with a good crunchy batter and homemade tartare sauce is the definition of happiness on a plate.
For the adult only upgrade you can wash it down with a cold pint of Pilsner on a sunny autumn afternoon sitting under the falling elm leaves of Royal Parade. Heaven.

Bycatch Crudo 🐟
Bycatch - the unintentional catch of commercial fishing, and one of the moral dilemmas associated with eating fish. We work with to pick up what’s fresh and available from Kensington fish market. Small quantities and diverse species.
Thinly sliced and served raw with green olive and preserved lemon for a savoury briny edge. A chilli and mandarin dressing rounds it out with a pop of citrus and gentle hint of heat.

We’re taking a short break over Easter… giving us just enough time to make a dent in the dish pile 😜
We’ll be closed from Friday 3rd to Monday 6th April.
We’ll be back pouring beers and firing the kitchen up again on Tuesday 7th April.
Wishing you all a safe and happy Easter 💚🍻

Back in the 90’s, this place was a little louder, a little looser, and probably a fair bit stickier. These days it’s safer to eat the food, we’re still pouring Carlton, backing the Blues, and flying a few proud mullets behind the bar 🤟🏻 🍻 💚

What people say
Naughtons Hotel, located on Royal Parade in Melbourne, is a must-visit pub for anyone looking for a great time. With its cold beers and warm smiles, Naughtons Hotel has been a favorite spot for locals and tourists alike. The pub is closed on public holidays, but it's worth planning your visit around that to experience the delicious food and drinks they offer.
The team at Naughtons Hotel takes pride in sourcing their ingredients from local farms practicing regenerative methods. One such farm is Westerly Downs, which supplies the pub with pastured duck and quail. The confit duck leg with pumpkin and sour cherry is highly recommended and pairs perfectly with a glass of pinot.
If you're a wine lover, Naughtons Hotel has got you covered too. They recently visited Kevin, Kathleen, and Tom in Balnarring to experience harvest firsthand. The cellar door at Balnarring is well worth a visit, and the wines are exceptional - especially the 2018 Seventeen Rows Pinot that will be hitting Naughtons' list soon.
On Sundays, Naughtons Hotel serves up a delicious roast beef with all the trimmings and bottomless yorkies from midday until late. It's the perfect way to end your weekend on a high note.
