Captain Melville | Mac's Hotel |

Captain Melville provides a modern take on gold rush era hospitality.
All food is sourced from ethical and sustainable Victorian farms. The menu focuses on communal, casual eating, with shared dishes, steaks, snacks, and of course, the pub classics.
Captain Melville is a window into the unique and colourful history of Melbourne. Housed within Melbourne's oldest pub, originally Mac's Hotel, built 1853. Breathe Architects have collaborated with the National Trust to conduct a refit of the venue.
For over 150 years, the bluestone walls of this famed establishment have provided solace and sustenance to Melbournians and visitors alike. Now housing Captain Melville, it has become the destination for accessible dining, imbibing and revelry - all within Melbourne's oldest public house.
Captain Melville's captures the spirit of our country and allows like-minded souls to come together to satisfy their need for relaxation after a hard day's work.
The large communal dining hall - set just behind the front bar - offers seating for parties of many different sizes.
