About The Civic Pub
The Civic Pub is a traditional pub on Lonsdale Street in Braddon, a short walk from the city centre. Inside it keeps an old-school feel, with fireplaces, tartan carpet, timber and walls of books. The pub is split into several areas. The dining room centres on a fireplace and seats up to 90, while the lounge beside the bar has its own fireplace and seats 40. For smaller groups, a private dining room set back from the bar seats 8 to 12 and has a large screen. The Terrace Bar adds a leafy, timber-lined space, with a mezzanine above it looking down over the room. The function menu is made in-house and needs at least 20 people per order. Canapé packages come in three sizes, from spring rolls, arancini and beef skewers up to bao buns and grilled prawn skewers. Cheese, fruit and antipasto platters can be added, along with dessert pieces such as mandarin and almond cake. Dietary needs are covered by vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free options, which must be flagged when ordering. The pub asks for ten days' notice to guarantee full menu availability.
