The beer Garden closed at 11pm and we all got moved into the gaming area. So we might as well play!!
In my opinion, this is the number one poker machine venue in the state (Sydney does do poker machines better). I have never seen a place pay out as much as this place. Great $9 pints. Love the low dark colour ceilings with the fancy light fittings. There is a great balance of old and new machines and a good variety of different poker machine manufacturers. There even is one with a coin hopper !! Dragon link, Lightning link machines, Heart Throbber and Big red, they’re all Aussie classics.
The two workers in the venue provided good service. We had one person with us who ended up a little intoxicated and they stopped serving him alcohol. Very wise move.
Great location , good parking , nothing bad I can say about this place . Oh maybe try and get some ‘More Chilli’s gaming machines

FIVE STARS!!!!! Parkview Hotel
Congratulations Parkview Hotel five stars awarded for finally getting rid of the Venue Manager that has single handedly ruined this once great hotel.2023 saw a horrid creature entrusted to maintain the operations within this hotel. Instead she went about hiring inexperienced staff from her own village with no customer service, terrible work ethics and poor communication skills, diminishing all once high standards of this venue. In 12 months this dishonest, unprofessional, arrogant, simpleton has succeeded greatly, in ruining a much loved North Fitzroy hotel. Well done a great effort!
I wish the Parkview Hotel the best in recovering the once outstanding reputation prior to this unfortunate set back.

$9 pints! Draught included!
SOLD!
Thank you
Place is half under renovation so manoeuvring the venue can be an issue… but it’s only temporary. So you have to allow for it.
Great beer garden on the corner…
Trying to be PC as the locals won’t appreciate my humour
🤣🤣🤣

Stopped in for a cheeky beer on my way home.
$9 Pints and $5 pots on all tap beer.
The barman was a friendly bloke, looking forward to getting back to try the pub grub.

None of the toilets have locks on the doors and there are no women's toilets, only unisex or men's. The beer selection is not very good and at $9 a pint it's not that cheap. The main bar closes early at random even with over 10 patrons in the bar, so you can't trust opening hours unless you're playing pokies.
You'd think some of the money from the nearly constantly open pokies could provide a decent beer, reliable opening hours or locks on the toilet doors at the very least.
To edit the review in fairness: there are now female toilets. What an exceptional effort! The male toilets still don't have locks, and they have added stone and wood pale ale for one decent beer.
Unfortunately you will never be able to watch a game of afl without the most toxic couple on the planet making their guttural screams and screaming f you after the team they don't support scores. If you attend, you'll understand how awful it is. Ruins the atmosphere of a rare pub that allows you to smoke and drink while watching the footy.

Unprofessional lead management come to work with love bites on her neck can't order pot glasses that have been dropped 3 weeks ago no people skills, can't run the tab, sit in her office ,over works staff ,does not give staff irrelevant breaks,English is poor,leaves early ,come in late for shifts,only hire her family members, iv drank in this pub for over 40 years and never seen such poor lead management she needs to be gone my personal opinion is she can't run a chook raffle you have lost one of your best asset's to your company Perry and alot of the patron won't be returning as Perry made that pub he work skills and people skills are outstanding he brought patrons to this venue
This has been a hidden gem for many years. Looks like it has had a recent spruce up, so is looking very clean and comfortable. You can't complain about $8 pints, but the Parkview combines that with a truly excellent range of beers, from lagers to XPAs to sours. Great atmosphere and staff. It is a pokie pub, but I managed to ignore that part of the building.
