above all. they have no government COVID tracking like any other restaurant/caffe. no trace of names, pay, nothing. we had booked in advance. we went in, the lady had no table for us, so she asked if we were sitting on stairs outside (safe) sending us the lift on level 3, not accompanies us. we sit outside and it's just us, we felt like we were forgetting (what we were) take us 35 to get a menu and order drinks. the man came back with drinks and took our food order without pen or paper. he came back THREE times to confirm (without a notizpad each time). we weren't crazy. we were just really shocked as he seemed. this is a nice restaurant?! we then wanted to sit down the stairs when the stair...
Room was great, windows could be opened. Great bathroom, comfy bed. However the room I stayed in they gave me a key because they said the keycard was not working. Next morning I could not open the door to get out and it took half...an hour for the after hours person to come and let me out. During this I found their room phone also not working good I had my mobile. Earlier I found the fridge also not working and had to have room temp yoghurt and drink for breakfast. So a rather sour note to end my stay on. Be wary of keys that do not work
the time to go the 5 minutes south of the city is rewarded more than with great food. in any case, they take a meal at one of the expensive places on the river, but if they are tired to pay crazy prices, and want big. food with great service, in a friendly, local restaurant, they will find the clarendon. simply one of the best meals and service we had during a 3 week trip from melbourne, adelaide and hobart.
we were in a 2 bedroom apartment in the 2nd floor. what was impressive was that each of the bedrooms had its own ensuite, which is great when they stay with friends. the apartment has two bedrooms and a room with a long bar...with 4 chairs for seating, small fridge, microwave and a water cooker. all in all very reasonable quality accommodation near foot to crowns casino and southbank

Went with a group of 12 people. Staff were friendly, accommodating to a larger group and did not pressure to take orders. All food was delivered around the same time. No complaints about any of the food and at an affordable price. At the bar...advised of happy hour and when it was concluding
I ate here with the family. eating was abundant, fresh and very tasty. the prices were very reasonable and the staff could not be fault-free. I can't wait to come back.
The Clarendon has been a bit neither here or there over the years,
including it's time as a former dingy smoke filled questionable pub, where

Good drinks and food, but looks like it is closed now for sale or renovations? We enjoyed variety of drinks offered for a private party.

Recently re-opened one of South Melbourne's fave's is back again complete with competitive drink specials and simple quality food.
The one thing that always stands out about the Clarendon are their strict rules and strict closing times.
