About Iron Duke Hotel

Spacious beer garden seating, rotating craft taps, and reliable pub cooking give this Alexandria local its easy pull. Regulars drop in after work for pints under the fairy-lit tree with their dogs in tow. The kitchen turns out crispy schnitzels, pan-seared barramundi, and a tender Sunday roast pork with crunchy crackling.

  • Dog-Friendly Beer Garden: Pups are welcome across the spacious outdoor patio under the shady, fairy-lit tree.
  • Rotating Craft Taps: Guest craft beers and seasonal pours rotate regularly alongside traditional draught lines.
  • Elevated Pub Classics: Weekday lunch deals alongside hearty staples like Sunday roast pork with crackling and crisp chicken schnitzel.

  • Welcoming Space for Dogs in the Garden

    Spacious garden areas make it easy to head out for casual meals or gatherings without having to leave dogs at home.

  • Constantly Rotating Craft Taps

    Beer enthusiasts can sample an adventurous and changing lineup of tap craft beers beyond standard pub selections.

    They have a bunch of rotational taps so there's always something new to try and they're not scared to put unique, interesting beers on.

    A spacious, sunny beer garden provides a relaxed environment suited for gathering with coworkers and friends after work.
