Before the age of smart phones and GPS, the Standard Hotel was a well kept secret. Hidden in Fitzroy's backstreets, people were often pretty sure they had been there but couldn't remember the name..
Most were left with the memory of some heady night with mates -perhaps in the garden under canopy of spring jasmine The front bar or cozied by the fire soaking up the sounds of a local legend..
Today, the Standard Hotel boasts a fine reputation with its quirky interior, impressive food and wine selection, regular live music and of course, arguably the best beer garden in Melbourne.
