Bleakhouse Hotel

The best fish and chips I've had in a very long time. Presented as a replica of serving it up in old newspaper, as they did in my youth, with the piėce de résistance of gem pickled onions. Solid fish in crispy yet light batter, with condiments of mashed peas and housemade tartare sauce, which could be eaten by itself on water crackers if you wished. Chaat style skinny chips which held their crispness to the finish. Recommended. 👌 Update late Apr2021: On this visit also had a dessert of Double chocolate cake with poached rhubarb, honeycomb and crème fraiche. Not quite death by chocolate! Rich dark chocolate essence, not sweet, yet light; I was happy that it was not a large piece. Offset by the acidity of the rhubarb, with a smooth, slightly sour finish provided by the crème fraiche. Honeycomb gives just a little sweetness and crunch. Lovely.

Quite a nice lively spot with decent bar prices and a great location in Albert Park. Can't wait to meet friends and watch a game here.

Now this place was perfect yesterday. 10/10. The guy behind the bar was very friendly. Nothing a problem. Food was delicious. I had the fish and chips and think they were probably the best pub fish and chips ever had (and I have had a lot). Other meals were top notch too. Good price and great atmosphere / decor too.

It's a place where you can chill out in the courtyard or be "all in" outside. The beach (across the road) can't get much better than that. The staff here are awesome, from across the world, the food here, delicious, every thing you need is here. There's another adjoining bar, real cute. Has the pokies and TAB. ALL ROUNDER for anyone.

Great place for a quiet drink, nice meal or to watch the footy.
