- EEliseMelbourne •1 review5.0Dined on Apr 22, 2025What a fantastic surprise dining at Hotel Brighton after a movie at Palace 2 doors down. We happened to be there on $25 steak night - perfectly cooked, delicious 250gm porterhouse with a lightly dressed green salad & chips ( and mushroom sauce ) . Compliments to the chef - it was fabulous and we will be back. I rarely order steak out as it has often been overpriced and overcooked! You won’t be disappointed! Staff were super helpful to with my 90year old mother-in-law. Thankyou!More infoHotel BrightonPrice: Moderate• Pub• Brighton•4.3

The food was delicious except that they ran out of broccolini and gave me broccoli instead. Coffee was great. Great kids menu with free kids drinks.
