The Imperial Hotel

The Imperial Hotel in Melbourne’s CBD is a little pub but with a big love for sports, great food and serving cool drinks. Another great thing about the Imperial is that they will be showing every game live! If that isn’t a good enough reason to show your face then think about the $20 Bud Buckets you can huddle around with your mates while you’re watching the early kick offs. And you can take a rest from yelling at the telly and enjoy a tasty breakfast served from 6am but only on game days.
