The Courthouse North Melbourne is a historic building. Originally built in 1857, the storied old pub lived many lives before the team behind Naughtons Hotel reopened it in 2023. The front bar has that classic old-school pub feel, perfect for casual drinking and watching AFL, while the backbar is good for bigger groups. A record player has pride of place in the front bar next to a collection of vintage vinyl and the kitchen exclusively dishes pub classics. Plus, at the new-look Healesville Hotel, enjoy house-made pastas and pub classics in the bar and bistro revamped by the team behind Marquis of Lorne and The Orrong Hotel.
