The three-storey brick and butter building looks well-worn yet strong – which makes sense when you consider the Old Fitz is around 150 years old. The pub is surrounded by leafy green trees and punters sit out the front to knock back cold ones. Just from the exterior, you can tell the old boozer has more character and charm than a new opening could dream of (and that's why they won Time Out's Best Casual Drinking Venue Award 2023). Fun fact: The Old Fitzroy Hotel is the only remaining theatre pub in Australia (it’s found out the back and down the stairs). Plus, you can get a cracking feed there. Here’s hoping the show goes on for another 150 years.
