The Croxton

We aren’t from the area but we’re up for a show at Northcote and we’re looking for an early meal. There was a few large groups but it wasn’t too busy (we got here about 5:30pm) service was quick (can order on your phone from the table) and food was quick to arrive. Food was great and generous serves (the photo is half of what I ordered) While the bistro is a large open area it’s carpeted and not noisy. There is also two pool tables

Epic old skool music venue complete with sticky carpet. Great sound, good drinks service. More of this please!!

Having perused the menu item pictures, the burgers clearly looked the most appetising. I ordered the chicken burger and sure enough, it was excellent. Admittedly, it was a bit greasy but the flavour was bang on and it was enormous. Who else gets sick of paying $20+ for a tiny burger these days without a side? Not at The Croxton, here you get your money's worth. A fat juicy burger with all the trimmings and a decent stack of fries. Absolute winner!

Have seen several bands here, great venue. Good sound and space, always friendly crowd and staff.

A solid music venue. Decent beers on tap. Free parking.

Amazing venue for kids! Went here purely for the kids play area so the kids could have a play while we had a drink and a meal. The kids play area is open with glass walls so you can watch the kids play while seated in the bistro. Staff were lovely, accomodating and not phased by our kids running around. The meals were delicious and quite a large serving, with quick service too. Great value for money. The kids had an absolute ball. Thanks Croxton Hotel for allowing 2 exhausted parents to have a relaxing meal and a few drinks while the kids were kept entertained for hours! Couldn’t rate this place any higher! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Place was pretty clean considering location. Food wasn’t too far below average. Atmosphere was 78% nitrogen, 21% oxygen, and 1% other gases

A salad in a bar? Well, this is by far one of the best salads in a bar that I've ever tried!
And I'd definitely come back for another one! Prices and servings quite on point as well.

We went there on Sunday because they have some board games available for playing, and it was a really chill evening.

A brilliant venue as always! Sound is amazing, you can see the band from anywhere you stand, bar staff are friendly and its easy to be served quickly!

Excellent venue for live gigs. Ventured into Thornbury to watch the Strung Out 30 year tour and the acoustics were bang on. Love this place. Looking forward to next time.

Saw Flogging Molly here and the space is fantastic. The sound was amazing. There was a large Carpark that was near empty on the night directly across the road and super easy to get to from Geelong. Wonderful venue. Will be back for sure.

Back again for PUP and what an amazing show. Once again did not dissapoint. 👏👏👏

Nice hotel for a venue. Saw NJPW here. All staff were lovely

If it is spacious enough to give you a little experience of the New African Shrine Legend. Definitely, it is spacious enough. I had a great time at the sold-out concert. The organisers and event security did a perfect job to keep people safe.

Stopped for a light snacks and a cold drink. Did not disappoint! Very friendly polite and prompt service. Was a little quiet at 5pm on a Saturday afternoon but definitely what was needed on a hot sticky day. Great atmosphere

We saw Black Veil Brides here on my birthday and they were amazing. The sound quality was great and there was room to move which is nice. Clean venue, clean bathrooms.

Went back with our elderly dad ,to remember some some old times there was a young man called Kane absolute treasure I have never seen a young man work so hard even with sore toe.he also works at bundoora hotel and dad recognised him it was a great day made better ,Kane was absolutely great. Will come back for sure.

Great live music venue in Melbourne. Easy access and there are bars on either side of the band room, so you don’t have to fight you way as far through the crowd for a drink! Get there early for a meal and a few drinks before.

Good atmosphere, have come here several times, trivia is on a Wednesday, there's a $20 deal with 2 pizzas and a bottle of wine
