Welcome Stranger is a pub that we visited twice while in Melbourne. It is a pub and small casino combined located on Bourke street. It was quite busy when we visited both times. There was a bouncer on the door who appeared pleasant. I had a couple of pints of Carlton beer and it was very nice indeed. There was a good mixture of young and older people in this pub. While we were there, they were showing an England rugby world cup match on the television. The draught beer taps had ice surrounding them which i couldn’t help touching! We found some of the bar staff to be friendly but some of them were quite rude. We got potato wedges as a snack while we were in this pub and there was a good menu with other food available. There is a smoking area available at the front of the pub looking out onto the street.
We didn’t go into the casino part but it appeared busy from looking in. There was just one gents toilet and it was only alright. Its condition wasn’t great when i saw it. Both myself and Jen enjoyed our trip into this pub and it was grand for a couple of drinks.
Toilet rating: 5/10
Pint rating: 6/10
Overall rating: 6/10
Final comment: Welcome Stranger is an interesting name for a pub.
