Shamrock Restaurant - Melbourne

This restaurant does not provide an authentic Irish experience. The food mainly consists of typical pub dishes such as chips, wedges, beef nachos, and flatbreads. Despite a few Irish options like Beef Guinness pie and Bangers and Mash, the majority of the menu is not Irish. While you can enjoy Guinness on tap and the staff may be Irish, there are many other Irish-themed pubs that offer a more authentic experience.

Located upstairs in the Celtic Club, The Shamrock Restaurant is a dining option for those looking for a meal beyond the pub food and live music offered in the Tara Bar downstairs. The restaurant serves lunch on weekdays and dinner on Fridays. The ambiance is old-fashioned with dark decor, and while the prices are mid-range, the quality of the meals may not impress discerning diners. The menu features a variety of hearty main courses, but vegetarians may find limited options available. Overall, The Shamrock Restaurant offers a diverse menu with a focus on meat, poultry, and fish dishes.

This restaurant is a great spot to enjoy sports events or spend time with friends over some drinks. They have large screens for watching games. However, the food options may not be the best. The burger was pricey but decent. Other dishes didn't look very appetizing either. Consider trying another place if you're looking for good food.

I just needed a quick meal that was local.staff were very friendly and the beer was cold.food was a bit over priced but it was ok for a pub meal.not great.would like to go again when it is a little busier,to get the full ambience of the place

The Shamrock Restaurant is upstairs in the Celtic Club. Downstairs on street level is the Tara Bar, where you can drink of course, have pub food, watch sports on TV, and hear live music. The restaurant offers lunch Tuesday to Friday 12-2.30pm and dinner on Fridays only, 5-9pm. I've eaten in the Shamrock with big groups who've booked out all or part of the restaurant on a Friday night. The space is dark and old-fashioned so far as décor is concerned and the lifts (elevators) are not the best. Prices are mid-range by city standards. The quality of the meals is not great; I don't think any chef would put their name to the food. However the menu is quite extensive and far from strictly 'Irish', and you can have a hearty main course majoring on meat, poultry or fish with potatoes for under $30. For vegetarians the offerings are few.
