Pirate Life South Melbourne is a large industrial-style brewery with fantastic meat dishes! We visited on a Sunday for their roast and were lucky to be there during their 10th anniversary, which featured some incredible beers—I even found a new favorite lager! Unfortunately, the beef Sunday roast was sold out by 3 pm, so we opted for the slow-cooked ribs instead. They were incredibly tender and juicy! The potatoes were also excellent—crispy and full of flavor. My friend’s portion wasn’t quite enough, so we added an antipasto of their wagyu bresaola, which I absolutely loved. The service was outstanding, and the atmosphere was just right. I highly recommend this place! Keep in mind the prices...

139-145 Market St, South Melbourne, Victoria, Australia, 240646 Reservation"Amazing venue with a fantastic food menu! We kicked off with their mocktails—the tropical kiwi and grapefruit spritz—both excellent choices. Some standout dishes were the spelt flatbread, fried chicken chops, roast potatoes with cheese and sour cream, and of course, the steak! The service was perfect—friendly, attentive, and never intrusive. Definitely returning! Service: 5 stars."

The Monday steak day special at Pirate Life South Melbourne is an excellent value at $25, offering a steak, chips, and a gravy dip. During my visit, I enjoyed a 250g porterhouse steak that was cooked to perfection—kudos to the chef. While the meat was slightly chewy, considering the price, it was hard to fault. The porterhouse had a fair amount of fat, which I trimmed off, but I can see why some appreciate the fatty parts for the added flavor. The chips could have used a bit more cooking time, but they were still tasty. Overall, the venue and atmosphere were very inviting. The menu offers great options, making it a spot worth revisiting.
