More information on Quiet Man (The)

This seminal member of Melbourne's burgeoning Irish scene boasts a restaurant, bar, live bands, regular competitions and drinking clubs, a bottle shop, and a quarterly newsletter. Along with token Irish paraphernalia, the interior is adorned with wooden tables, floors, benches and booths helping to further amplify the shrill sounds of fiddle and guitar. Roasts, stews, platters, seafood and poultry in generous servings, ideally to be enjoyed on a cold winter's evening. And, of course, there is plenty of Guinness on tap and pint-sized Irish beers to boot.Disabled Access.
