10 Best Breweries and Beer Places in Montrose Post Office

"The Colonial Brewing Co in Port Melbourne is a favourite spot for many a Melburnian beer fan. With a robust selection of regular beers on tap, the coming and going of each season brings new project brews to add to their offerings. Coupled with a tasty bar food menu that features wing and burgers, this is a beer mecca worth visiting."

"From humble beginnings in a backyard on Henry Street, this tiny artisan microbrewery in Kensington hand crafts a tasty range of beers and ales. With five core beers always available, the guys at Henry Street add to their line up throughout the year with seasonal and one-off brews that come from the beer epiphanies that strike the brewers in the house. The Brewery Bar at 5/38 Barrett Street, Kensington is open regularly."

"Notable for being Australia’s first female owned and operated brewery, the Two Birds Nest in Spotswood is home to their brewery and tasting room.

Stop by for one, or make it a session and order something from the food menu that’s designed to complement the brews."

"Sam and Duncan first met while working at wineries in New Zealand and it’s there they hatched their idea for Hop Nation Brewing Co. Housed in a huge 130-year-old warehouse in Footscray, the red brick and wall murals create a relaxed vibe to sip the day away on one of their four core beers, like ‘The Fiend’, an Australian IPA that’s Aussie to the core. Keep an eye on their limited release beers too."

"The Moon Dog Brewery comes with a rags-to-riches story about how owners Jake, Josh and Karl opened their Abbotsford micro-brewery with a fistful of coins and a bucketful of determination. Now a household name in the craft beer scene and with changed fortunes under their belt, they haven’t forgotten their roots. Comfy couches and ramshackle style seating provide a chilled vibe in their warehouse pub to harbor a bottle of their Love Tap lager, Old Mate pale ale and Mack Daddy dark ale."

"Sip on a glass of the good stuff at this Collingwood brewery bar and ponder the menu which showcases the best of local growers and makers. If you’re enjoying your smokey porter, think about taking one of their workshops such as Brewing for Beginners, taught by in-house brewers. 390 Smith St,Collingwood, VIC 3066, 03 3 9417 4755, The Craft & Co"

"Couple Stephen and Niharika Hogan scoured South America top to tip and brought their love for the continent’s cuisines back home to an intimate venue on Bridge Road in Richmond. Onda’s compact menu (which is about half vegetarian) pays homage to Latin flavours but isn’t wedded to tradition. The ambitious dishes get full points for creativity."

"South American flavours and the warmth of home await diners at ONDA Bar & Eatery on Bridge Road in Richmond. Meaning vibes in Spanish, ONDA fuses good energy with soulful food in trendy surrounds of p..."

"Australia’s iconic shopping precinct is a feast for the eyes but of course this might not necessarily thrill your children. Older kids might want to have a closer look at The Art of Dr Seuss, Dafel Dolls and Bears and the cool collection at Mr Wares while you can marvel at the stunning architecture of the arcade. Finish off with cake and coffees in the Victorian splendour at the wonderful Hopetoun Tearooms."

"Standing in stark contrast to the city's laneways, are its glamourous arcades. They replace street art and cobblestones with boutique shops and tiled floors. The city features several glamourous arcades, including The Royal Arcade, the oldest arcade in Australia."

"Looking for a one-stop shop for multiple fun things for kids to do in Melbourne?.

The District Docklands is an outdoor shopping centre that is also a great dining and entertainment precinct."

"Serving beautiful food to the diners of Melbourne and beyond for over 20 years. The Strand in Williamstown has become a Melbourne Institution."

"The flagship restaurant, one of four locations across the city, is nestled in the thrum of Chinatown; however, the rattle of the city streets is muffled somewhat by the imposing fish tank that greets diners-to-be. Secret Kitchen claims it’s the largest live seafood aquarium in Melbourne and, if you’re thinking of sampling the extensive seafood offerings, probably contains your lunch. With fifty years’ Chinese culinary experience between the pair of them, you can expect an authentic, all-out assault on the taste buds from the boys in the kitchen."
