Best pub in South Melbourne. Controversial, but I'm a big fan.
Here me out. South Melbourne is full of pubs that just look nice. Fancy wallpaper and menus with puns instead of food names. But what's a fancy looking pub if the food is horrible, the beers on tap are generic, and the service is non existent?
The Maori doesn't try to look like the pubs it's competing with. It's just doing its own thing and it's doing it well. Good beer on tap and good pub food on the menu. I wouldn't take a date here, but it's far better than the overpriced, over designed pubs that try harder than I did in high school. Maori isn't trying to impress you, which ironically is what impresses me. See less
