Skip the socks. Skip the card he'll pretend to love and never read again. This Father's Day, buy any main and Dad's first Great Northern Super Crisp is on us, because surviving another year of dad jokes deserves a reward. 😍🍻
Every purchase also goes in the draw to win a stack of GNSC merch and a smoker, so he can finally stop borrowing the neighbour's and start bragging like he means it.
Bring the family in, order a parma and let Dad have his day.

Home cooked dinner is lovely. It is also silent, has no crowd noise and definitely isn't showing Hawthorn v Collingwood live and loud. 😆
Our lasagna comes with a full house, screens on every wall and a crowd that will yell at the umpire on your behalf, free of charge. Kick off's 7:40pm Saturday, come find out which dinner actually wins. 🍻

Sunday is UFC 330, Makhachev putting the welterweight belt on the line against Ian Machado Garry and every bloke in here about to develop a PhD in jiu jitsu for one afternoon only. We can't verify your credentials, we can verify the beer is cold and the screens are loud. Doors are open, black belts optional, opinions guaranteed. 👊🏻
*Screening of Main Card only.

Round 23 this week, the pointy end of the season where half the comp is still mathematically alive and fully unhinged about it!
Everyone's team is "still a genuine shot," every umpire is "an absolute disgrace" and every fan in here is one bad quarter away from needing a lie down. Grab a seat before the good screens go, we'll keep the beers coming no matter how spectacularly your finals dream implodes. 🏈🍻

If there's one thing we won't shut up about, it's our parmas. So, when we got the nod for Parma Daze's Melbourne's Best Parma comp, we knew we'd have a shot, because we've got you legends behind us.
Turns out a bar full of people who basically live for our parmas is a pretty handy army to have. We just smashed through the Quarter Finals and we're officially into the SEMI FINALS. 🤩🔥
Couldn't have done it without every single vote, thank you. We'll let you know the second voting opens again, so get your fingers warmed up. Thanks legends, round two here we come.

It's Round 22. Your team is either finals-bound or has been quietly "building for next year" since about Round 8 ... and deep down, you already know which one it is.
Doesn't matter either way. There's a parma with your name on it, a seat with your name on it and nine games worth of footy on the big screens to help you forget the ladder for a few hours. 😍🏈
Kicks off Thursday. Screens on, beers cold, see you at Ruck & Rover.

Round 8 rematch: same two teams, same three ex-Blues still turning the knife for St Kilda. Last time it cost Carlton 39 points ... let's see if they've learned anything. 😆🏈
St Kilda v Carlton - Sunday 7:20pm, live on the big screens at Ruck & Rover. Beers cold, parmas hot, banter mandatory, loyalty optional (looking at you, De Koning).

Scientists say watching a beer being poured slowly is 73% more satisfying than your last relationship. We made that stat up, but you know it's true. 😉

Thursday night at the MCG, Collingwood vs Geelong, one of the great AFL rivalries and honestly the tension alone is worth the trip to the bar. 🏈🤩
Pies fans convinced this is their year, Cats fans convinced they've "still got it" and everyone else just here for the beer and the chaos.
Screens on from 7:30, opinions loud, judgement free, except for whoever's still riding the "we were unlucky" excuse from last time. Get in early, this one fills up fast. 🍻

Our beef brisket tacos are stacked. Our sports schedule is stacked. We're starting to think it's not a coincidence - it's just how we do things around here. Come hungry, stay for the footy, leave with zero regrets. 😉🍻🌮
