Address

Corner of Swanston and Flinders Sts, opposite Flinders Street Station

This corner pub has faced the Flinders Street Station clocks since 1861. Its 1909 nude painting, Chloe, is famous enough that the upstairs dining room is named after her. Downstairs you order from the table by QR code and eat the great Aussie pub dish, chicken parma (schnitzel under tomato sauce, ham and cheese), with a draught beer. The location, one crossing from the station, is the big win.
