Mona Castle Hotel, SEDDON, VIC

Mona Castle Hotel is a sure candidate for an endangered species list – a small, friendly, dependable local pub with all the trimmings.

Nestled in quiet, suburban Austin Street in Melbourne's blossoming inner-West, the Mona Castle has great, affordable food and a cosy dining room to enjoy it in, and a function marquee in which to sip icy cold beer, full TAB and eftpos facilities. But it's the community atmosphere here that locals love and makes it a great place to catch up casually with family, friends and colleagues.
