“College Lawn Hotel strikes me as a place with a lively, local pulse, maybe a bit rough around the edges, if I am honest. While I've seen comments about inconsistent food and some overzealous service, the dog-friendly atmosphere and reported good times suggest a spot where character trumps perfection. For those seeking an unvarnished, authentic Melbourne pub experience, it seems like it could be an interesting bet.”
