About this restaurant

  • Lively
  • Kid-friendly
  • Good for groups
GENERAL PUBLIC
IT'S ALL IN THE NAME.
There really is something for all ages under one stylish roof!
Groovy beats, sleek ten pin bowling lanes, & THE BEST digital arcade games in Melbourne. We all love a bit of a feisty table tennis match, or perhaps a few sips around the pool tables (AKA playing a game of pool).
Gram worthy function rooms, & a rooftop carpark for those large events.
We almost forgot- the TASTIEST menu & fully equipped bars with all your favourite cocktails.

    It was good, I enjoyed my meal and everything was reasonably priced. The chicken parma was terrible though and our table had 3/5 parmas unfortunately. I was happy with everything else. (Probably because I didn't order the parma)

    We were there celebrating my son’s 5th birthday at General Public, and Matt truly made the night special for our whole family. From the moment we arrived, he went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. His friendly, upbeat attitude and genuine kindness stood out, and we all commented on how wonderful he was.

    Great evening out for my son’s 14 birthday. Bowling was fantastic, even if they couldn’t find our booking - lucky I could prove payment. Did some games and darts, everyone had fun. Purchased 4 different kinds of pizzas that all looked the same. Minimal service, tables not cleaned when someone leaves and no water glasses available. We still had fun, prices are pretty up there unfortunately.

    We had an awesome afternoon with the kids, playing darts, pool, ten pin bowling, table tennis, and arcade games. Food was really good, we ordered the little bit of this a little bit of that platter.
