A Melbourne institution and local favourite
Richmond pubs are among Melbourne’s best and we’ve been here for over 15 years. Built in 2009, we boast all the delights of a traditional pub with the modern technology you expect. For years, locals have been coming to Royal Saxon to enjoy wonderful food, great service and a relaxed and friendly atmosphere- that’s not changing anytime soon.
You want a fuss-free fabulous event that your guests will love, and we can deliver. Our expert events team can create the perfect party for your needs. Choose from a variety of spaces including:
cocktail parties in the fig courtyard
corporate lunches in the dining room
milestone birthday parties in the upstairs bar
intimate gatherings on the balcony
lazy afternoons in the laneway (it’s dog friendly)
Fantastic function spaces

What’s on
There’s always a reason for fun at the Royal Saxon. Whether it’s footy, racing, family or festive, the beers start flowing, the food is fabulous and the cheerful atmosphere is next to none. We can’t wait to welcome you. Join us for trivia nights, special occasions, live sports and more.
A classic pub located in the heart of Richmond
You’ll find us on Church St, just a five-minute walk from East Richmond station. The 78 tram runs along Church Street and Tram Stop #54 is a short stroll away. We’ll be honest- parking for Richmond pubs is not easy. Best to leave the car at home and grab a ride share or public transport.
We’re proudly independent
Lots of Melbourne pubs are owned by big gastronomic conglomerates- and that’s fine- but it’s not us. We’re family-owned and independent so there’s no head office controlling what we do. We’re in charge of our produce, our menu, our wine & beer list and we have the flexibility and freedom to choose the best suppliers. Which means you get the very best.
