- GGlenMelbourne •1 review5.0Dined on 23 Feb 2025A small group of us have been coming to the Railway pub in Port Melbourne since 2014 for regular Sunday catch ups. Plenty of food and drink options and a lively atmosphere. Bit quiet on most recent visit. Hope the locals return with the start of AFL.More infoRailway Hotel South MelbournePrice: Moderate• Australian• South Melbourne•4.4
