Housed in a building dating to 1869, The Montague Hotel trades as a neighbourhood eatery on Park Street, positioned on the number 1 tram line between Albert Park and South Melbourne. The venue combines a contemporary aesthetic with the traditional atmosphere of an old-fashioned local, and the kitchen serves a seasonal modern Australian menu built around quality, locally sourced produce, offered for both eat-in dining and takeaway. Trading hours split the week in two: Monday and Tuesday afternoons and evenings from 4pm, and a fuller midday-to-late service from Wednesday through Sunday. Beyond the main dining room, the Montague operates two function spaces for private events, a smaller private dining room seating up to 16 guests and a larger function room catering for 35 seated or 80 to 100 standing guests, making it a workable option for everything from a birthday dinner to a larger corporate gathering. The pub markets itself as a relaxed, unpretentious local suited to a drink before the game as much as a proper sit-down meal, and its position on a leafy back street away from the busier Clarendon Street strip gives it a slightly quieter, more neighbourhood feel than some of South Melbourne's larger hotel venues.
