We celebrated a birthday with a party of 6 friends for dinner. The staff could not have been more accommodating. Our set menu was delicious and perfectly portioned. The drinks, as always, were perfect. I can't recommend this place more highly.

Fitzroy Town Hall Hotel came highly recommended to us, and it didn't disappoint. The staff were friendly and knowledgable, and the food was divine. It was the best steak I have had in years. We will definitely be back.
