Fitzroy pubs: where to go for a pint and a feed
A beer garden, a gig or a proper pub dinner: Fitzroy leaves you a few ways to spend the afternoon. The Fitzroy Beer Garden has the outdoor space and a parma on the menu; The Catfish brings live music into the mix. Sugar Glider is another option when the catch-up might turn into a later night.

Outdoors, dinner or a band?
Start with the food if you’re making an evening of it. A main and a pint tell you more about the bill than the cheapest tap alone. If you’d rather wander between pubs, the Builders Arms, Marquis of Lorne and Napier make up our separate three-stop Fitzroy crawl.
The shortlist below gives you different reasons to stop, rather than six versions of the same night. Look for the beer garden if you want to sit outside, the meal prices if you’re hungry and the pub’s programme if you’re chasing live music.
Pubs to put on the shortlist
A choice for the mates who want more than dinner: live music, DJs, karaoke and screens all appear among Sugar Glider’s features. Pick the occasion, then look at what’s on at the pub.
