There are currently no specials on offer.

Was once an excellent venue and since being redone it STILL is. I also have gripes with the doorbitch, she's evil.. I drink there regularly too and have never worn a footy scarf, and still have been denied entry for some obscure reason!

Hey Ken - I don't think she would laugh at our posts - that would require her to have a sense of humour.
Why do you think that anyone who takes an interest in football is automatically a bogan? That's the thing about football - its a game that most people show an interest in - whether or not they are typically "sporty". In fact I'm what most would call a muso - I wear mostly ncie jackets and tailored shirts and have even played at the GB.
When I was told to take off my scarf I hadn't made a big decision to wear "footy gear" - I didn't rock up in my jumper with a giant foam hand and my cheer squad "floggers" - it was winter and I just put on my football scarf without thinking - like I would with any of my other scarves.
Furthermore its not like I just chose to go the GB that night when anywhere else would have sufficed - I drink at the GB every week (during the week) and was really surprised it was an issue that saturday.

LOL At TOM'S & THE CAPTAIN'S comments.I think the world's nastiest door bitch would laugh as well, she does her job well & keeps out all the vogans & muppets wearing footie gear. Wish to wear footie gear, that's fine, just drink somewhere else you plonker.

Any day but Saturday the GB is one of Melbourne's greatest pubs. Its interesting, relaxed, affordable, and down to earth.
The beer is cold and good, there's comfy couches inside and an awesome beer garden outside for smokers. Its always relatively busy without being uncomfortably full and the staff are helpful and pleasant.
However come Saturday the world's nastiest door bitch comes out to harass patrons. I, like the guy below, have also been reprimanded for wearing a football scarf (was only made to put it in a friends bag though).
Man I hate that bitch - she's rude, overly authoritative, always has to get "the last word in" and ruins the vibe of an otherwise friendly and quirky pub. The GB would do well to get rid of her.

This pub has completely lost it! Once the greatest pub in town, tonight I, a regular patron of ten years, was thrown out for wearing a football scarf!

best place to sit back, relax, snuggle on the couch with a nice pot of Little Creatures Pale Ale and listen to the indy grooves in this hot little place.

Great place. Good atmosphere. Good selection of beers. Awesome music. And a good, alternative-type crowd.

Awesome atmos in this Richmond stalwart. It's my local but seems every time I'm there I run into someone who's travelled across town for a beer at the GB

Just moved into the area and what a find. Single malts, awesome vodka, wide beer variety and all wrapped up in a bohemian dream. I have seen some great indie music there too. Watch out for the man eating couches though.

some bar staff were rude, the DJ played grotesque music that you would find in a dodgy flea market and when asked about the music selection he responded that he was to hung over to give a F**k, beer selections was ok

this place was introduced to me by one of my travel writing lecturers at uni, and it has now become my local (even though i live 20 minutes away). the decor, music, bar staff are all awesome, never had a bad night there. the couches are comfy and there are also a couple of pool tables for those that way inclined. overall, awesome place, definitely worth a look.

True the oysters were great from across the road. Enjoyed the fact that there was a quiet area for couples to chat while the live music was great for groups to enjoy. A+
