Story

"The venerable Wesley Anne is one of Melbourne’s oldest and prettiest pubs. Housed in a former church, its rough stone walls have seen generations of drinkers, musicians and sinners in general come and go.

It’s divided into three parts with three very distinct characters: there’s the slightly Gothic main barroom, a warm and comfortable band room and the large, leafy beer garden. A set of velvet-curtained, railed booths lines the rear of the barroom; heavy drapes cover the windows, a wrought-iron candelabra hangs from the high, corrugated iron ceiling and what looks like a rubbing from a medieval headstone adorns one wall. It could have been terribly gloomy, but it isn’t.

Still, if you’re in the mood for live music, or if churches simply bring you out in hives, the adjoining band room is the place to be. It’s big, cosy, and equipped with a great wood-burning stove – in fact, it’s the reason we named the Wesley Anne one of our Five Best Fireplace Equipped Pubs.

Filled with plump couches and hung with some impressive examples of high-end thrift store art (vast landscapes and still lifes, with a few kitsch figures tossed in), it hosts a different show almost every night, from family-friendly charity fundraisers to risqué burlesque acts. On winter evenings it’s the best spot in the house, but when the weather warms up the beer garden becomes very attractive. Sheltered for the most part, though you’re likely to get a bit damp if it’s raining, it’s a fine place for a few drinks under the stars.

Full food and drink menus are available on the website (www.wesleyanne.com.au), so we’ll restrict ourselves to letting you know that the kitchen is damned respectable and the wine and beer selections wide-ranging. The Wesley Anne is one of Northcote’s finest."

It is one of those places which has stood by the changing times. The moody design almost gave me a Goth vibe from outside. However, it was a different story when I stepped in. It almost felt like I stepped into a piece of history.nLocated opposite the St Anglican Church, this place is nostalgia for those who've been seeing it from childhood!nThey do have a beer garden, but I decided to sit inside and enjoy the live music paired with a drink and salted cashews.nThe place was thriving with laughter and conversations, and I couldn't stop swaying.
Great venue, great food and great service. The menu is put together well with lots of vegetarian options, our family ordered a variety of different things and everything was really good. Lots of variety of drinks and beers on tap locally sourced. The venue itself is beautiful, and the staff are friendly and can tell they take pride in their job and business. Thank you!
Great food and great atmosphere.nnAlways a unique offering of live music on the go and the weekly menu specials are yummy.nnWednesday night trivia night is one of the best in Melbourne!
First time visiting and I was well impressed. Our group of 3 shared 6 plates and all of them were delicious. The venue has a cozy bar area, a great beer garden with a fireplace and a fantastic band room.nCan't really comment on the service as we just used the QR code, but the lady clearing and delivering seemed nice.nDefinitely recommend
We booked the band room for a 40th birthday/fundraiser event after visiting many times prior for a yummy meal and live music. The team at Wesley Anne could not have been friendlier or more accommodating.nnAll the necessary ingredients for a successful night were in the house including:n delicious food and drinks with plenty of high quality alcohol-removed optionsn candle lit room in a great location world's coolest street in 2024 thank you very much with plenty of space to sit and chat, or stand and mingle...n a twinkling stage for our live music performance and speeches...nnA very special thanks to Harry and Leah for all the helpful coordination in the lead up to the event, and on the day. Highly recommend Wesley Anne for a reliable meal out and for private functions.
