What User doesn't like about Highlander Bar:

All the taps were out so only bottled beer. The mac cheese was good but the fish chips not so much. The staff was friendly and liked the decor.

I was there for a trivia night, it’s a very quiet pub with close to no one! I think it’s because of the location. It’s actually a little too fancy for Scottish...

A cosy Melbourne lane way bar with some great Happy Hour deals. It wasn't to much so it was nice and quiet to catch up for a drink with mates.
