The Prince Alfred

There are so many places out there that have Sunday roast on the menu. But let’s be real, not everyone can nail it. I can gladly say I thoroughly enjoyed this one at @princealfredrichmond not just because it was so beautifully presented but was a real explosion of flavours💥💥 The lamb meat fell off the bone, mixed with that delicious gravy and served with lightly roasted veggies. That’s perfection for me!!😍 Couldn’t really fault any of the dishes we ordered either. The Salt & pepper calamari, a classic pub nibble went with well with the squid ink aioli. And that Ricotta gnocchi, oh my goodness!! Light, pillowy pasta that just melts in the mouth with the kick of parmesan and pine nuts. The cocktails were so refreshing and pretty to look at. I loved my Dark and Stormy made with spiced rum. I was also surprised how amazing the pizza was as I usually am so particular where I eat them. We ordered the Sausage and it had a thin, crisp crust(just how I like it) loaded with meat goodness and CHEESE. Finally ended this feast with their signature Lemon curd cheesecake which had such a great balance. I hate overly sweet desserts so this just ticked all my boxes. The only thing I was worried about was the food baby in the making!!🙊😄 I’m usually not a pub food kind of girl but would highly recommend checking them out!! I’m going to stop talking now and let my pics do the talking.

The food was decent , service from waiter was fantastic. However, the waiting time for food was unbelievable. It wasn’t a busy day and yet took 40min for food to start coming. Seriously, we just feel that we have wasted so much time here. If at Top Paddock, after 40min, we would’ve starting the dessert order. Wouldn’t go back again for sure!

we had a fairly large group here for my sisters birthday tonight. Ordering was straight forward and through a QR code. Best steak sandwich I’ve ever had and if you have room for dessert, 100% would recommend the sticky date pudding! The manager and staff are incredibly lovely and grateful for our patience on a busy night. Thanks PAs.

To start with the staff are incredible and very friendly which makes the difference when finding a great spot to relax. The Alfred has a cracking selection of IPAs but the food here is simply remarkable. Having been here several times I can honestly say I have never been disappointed as I work through the menu. If you want my advice I would definitely come here for the steaks as they’ve been the best I’ve had in Melbourne and Wednesday steak night will make you cry with happiness at the quality and quantity for such a small fee. To top it all off the bar it’s self feels like an old English country pub inside and the beer garden is comfortably elegant.

Overpriced. Lovely building and setting, but the food and drink was overpriced for what it was. I could go to a country pub and get better quality for the same price, or any good fish and chip shop for the same food $10 cheaper. I suppose you pay for the prestige and location? Oh, and false advertising on the chips: the menu photos show steakhouse cut thick chips, what I received were shoestring fries.
