One of Fitzroy's most popular band venues, the Rainbow Hotel rocks most nights a week. It's a back-street local, has a loyal and down-to-earth following, and has stayed on for years.
The Rainbow Hotel is popular every night of the week, and hence a guaranteed good time. A Fitzroy classic.
Outdoor Area / Beer Garden
A half covered, half open, medium-sized beer garden with pool table is popular all year round.
Live Music Venue
Live bands play most nights. If you want a band pub, this is it.
