About St Lords
St Lords is a family-friendly hotel on West Fyans Street in Newtown, a few minutes on foot from the stadium at Kardinia Park. It runs a bistro for lunch and dinner every day and sets aside three rooms for private functions. The Courtyard is a beer garden with a retractable roof, so it works in any weather. It has its own entrance, sits apart from the rest of the pub and holds 72 guests for a cocktail-style event. The Isle Hall is closed off with black curtains and glass doors and has its own bar, private bathrooms and a built-in projector. It fits 60 people seated or standing, and tables can be set theatre or boardroom style for company events. The Dining Hall holds the most people, up to 134 guests seated or standing. It doubles as the public bistro, with booth seating, a fireplace, a private bar and a separate entrance for functions. There is no charge for any room. Hosts choose canapés by the piece, sandwich platters or a sit-down set menu of two or three courses served alternately, and every package includes the event staff, a function manager, audio-visual gear and a cake and gift table. Drinks can run as a basic or premium package for two or three hours, a bar tab set by the host, or a cash bar. A signed booking form and a 50% payment confirm the date.

Without doubt the best Caesar salad I have had in my life (and I’ve had a lot of them). Pork belly was incredible with an amazing crackle. Porter house steak cooked to perfection. Parma was spot on. All meals were great…
