The Duke of Wellington - Melbourne

Love visiting the Duke, a great atmosphere especially for private events and in springtime! A little overpriced but good food. Will visit again!

Lovely little rooftop bar. Due to covid, things had to be done a little differently, such as booking ahead, leaving our contact details at the door, separate booths and contactless ordering of food and drinks. The ambience is intimate yet fun, and the food was so far so good. I ordered a calamari side which came with ranch dressing. I definitely want to come back to try more food, the parma was huge and looked amazing!<br/ <br/ Side note, the service was impeccable. Even though social distancing was the order of the day, the staff were still friendly and attentive. One waitress even offered to take photos for us and sent them to our phones directly from her. She went above and beyond to make sure that we enjoyed our time there, and that little touch is why I'm giving five stars without having tried most of the menu yet.

We called into the Duke last night for a few drinks ahead of seeing a concert at the Forum. It was packed but we found a table upstairs in the wine bar area which is a much nicer spot than downstairs anyway. G&T’s were strong and there was a great selection of gin to boot. I’ve eaten here before and enjoyed the food but have previously found the service a little clunky with timings. That was over a year ago so thing may have improved.

Enormous parma good to fit 3 people! Other foods are ok. Great variety of craft beers and a nice rooftop bar to chillout and have a chat with colleagues.

Fab rooftop bar in the city. Fun vibes, good music, delicious bar snacks and drinks. Lasagne croquettes !!!!! Get in my belly. We’ve had lots of good times here... always good for a few drinks, snacks and then a little boogie on the dance floor.
