About Lona St Kilda

Sprawling outdoor gardens, reliable pub deals, and prompt bar bites make Lona an effortless Acland Street hangout. Settle into the airy front patio or the rear garden for a casual afternoon session—live tunes drift through on weekends, backed by a spirited happy hour. The roomy footprint means finding a table is never a hassle, whether tucking into a Sunday chicken parma or claiming discounted steak night pricing through the venue app. When curtain call looms at the Palais Theatre down the road, fast kitchen pacing keeps things moving smoothly over plates of nachos, sliders, and pizza.

  • Outdoor Garden Patios: Generous front and back garden spaces offer ample seating alongside dedicated outdoor spots that accommodate smokers.
  • Swift Pre-Show Bites: Quick-turn shared plates like sliders and nachos keep pre-theatre diners fed and on schedule for Palais Theatre curtains.
  • Value Meal Specials: Weekly features like Sunday parmas and app-registered steak nights deliver hearty pub classics at accessible prices.
