Any way, this Irish pub serves up the standard pub fare - bangers and mash ( Sausages and mashed potatoes tfor those that dont know), parma, fish and chips -you know, the usual. All very tasty. The pub tv's are just as likely to be set to English Soccer League as they are to AFL, and the local Irish backbacker community fills the pubs most evenings to give the place a little bit of authenticity. The venue is not fancy, and has the decor of most Irish pubs in Melbourne. Pretty decent, nothing to write home about, but perhaps worth a visit!

I guess that had something to do with it being a typical Irish pub with a typical selection of Irish beers on tap (something that I generally aren't all that interested in).

I am not against the British, or backpackers for that matter, but the ones who tend to frequent this venue can really be incredibly loud, boisterous and drunk. I have been to the Elephant Wheelbarrow on a few separate occasions (usually when unwillingly dragged by a friend) and my experiences have been somewhat similar each time. A lot of drunk men sometimes sleazy a lot of beer and loud live music. The latter two make the first bearable. The Elephant Wheelbarrow is a traditional pub, it does have some good pub grub and if you are in the mood to meet new people and let loose the Elephant Wheelbarrow is an easy option.

There are 2 Elephant and Wheelbarrow locations in Melbourne, but the St Kilda venue is the one I…read morehave graced with my presence... Elephant and Wheelbarrow is just a generally good pub with nice food, a traditional English pub decor and a decent selection of draught and bottled beers. The one thing that makes this place stand out though?? That it is teeming with English people - or more specifically, English backpackers. I'm not sure if that adds to the experience for me or not. On the one hand, the English accents make the pub seem more authentically English, and its easy to meet new people and have a chat over a pint. On the other hand, I constantly get asked about the Ramsey st Neighbours tour, and if I take holidays at Summer Bay. Definitely need another drink or two after those questions, though I would definitely be in the right place for it!

As a pub lover who lives in the area, I really look forward to coming back here.

I ordered the bacon and cabbage (which was spelt wrong) and a side of garlic potatoes. The portion of mash was huge but the portion of bacon didn't match it at all. I'm not sure why the dish is called bacon and cabbage as it is served with kale..not traditional at all! My mash was cold and lumpy so I didn't eat it. The garlic potatoes were nice but seriously lacked an important ingredient..garlic! Even though they were not as described, they were the best part of my meal.

This has to be simply the best vegan food I have ever tasted. Even the vegan shrimp was better than most shrimp I have had at other restaurants.

That being said I have found the service at Wonderland to be below average of more than one occasion. Meeting a friend for a few drinks after work one night we thought we would give the somewhat new Windsor bar a try, there was only one staff member working and although it was a night during the week, she could barely keep up with the few tables of customers there. Our drinks were mixed up and sometimes not brought over at all, if we went up to the bar to order we would have to wait while the poor waitress ran between the kitchen, bar and tables. Then feeling a but peckish after a few rounds of beers, we decided to order a pizza. The waitress then informed us that they do not make the pizzas on site and she would have to order it which could be a bit of a wait! This all seemed very strange to me, but ordered it anyway. The pizza was forgotten and then finally arrived 50 minutes later, it was small, low on toppings and very unsatisfying. I have not been to Wonderland on the weekend, but I am told it is a bit of fun, hopefully more staff are employed to help out on the busier nights of the week.

It's your typical pub setup, but don't let the exterior fool you; the room is much more spacious than it appears, easily accommodating 100 people. They boast an impressive array of beer on tap-- at least 10, or maybe more (I lost count). I was particularly thrilled to find my recent favorite, 'Wood & Stone.' On the culinary front, I tried their 'Chicken Kiev,' and it was a feast for the senses. Picture fried chicken with mashed potatoes and a corn cob. Every bite was a mystery of addictively delicious flavors, with crispy yet non-oily chicken, a seasoned breading, and flavorful mashed potatoes--perhaps with added stock. The staff deserves a shout-out--attentive, prompt, and friendly. Despite being a bit off the CBD path I usually tread, discovering a gem like this pub is a delight. This place is definitely a keeper!
