About The Flying Duck Hotel

Tucked off Chapel Street in Prahran, this backstreet tavern pairs cozy brick-and-timber corners with serious counter craft. Regulars pack the tables for Monday steak night—a thick cut served with crisp fries and mustard slaw—before rolling into Tuesday’s Parma & Pups in the glasshouse, where dogs get their own treats alongside pints of local tap beer. Plant-based diners lean toward the roasted cauliflower steak with tart pomegranate seeds, while groups settle by the open fire in the side room over porterhouse, fresh oysters, and schnitzel. Sheltered undercover seating keeps the sprawling beer garden humming through chilly Victorian weather, while staff move quickly through the dinner rush to keep drinks refilled and plates landing hot.

  • Weeknight Specials & Pet Dining: Regular weeknight draws feature a Monday steak special alongside Tuesday Parma & Pups nights with treats for visiting dogs in the glasshouse.
  • Pub Counter Classics: Kitchen staples include thick chicken parmas, slow-cooked lamb, and a roasted cauliflower steak crowned with tart pomegranate.
  • All-Weather Beer Garden & Fireplace: Features a spacious sheltered beer garden and a moody side room warmed by an open fireplace for year-round gatherings.

Beloved pub classics and weekly special favorites from our kitchen

  • Steak

    the steak was cooked perfectly it was a nice big bit of meat, no skimping out

    Madeline Owen

  • Chicken Parma

    We both enjoyed the $20 Parma chips and salad special

    Andy Dodson

  • Chicken Schnitzel

    Here the breast was a good size in tact and beautifully crumbed paired with a herb sauce, gravy - a fresh lightly sauce mustard coleslaw...and fresh crisp and tasty chips. It was a fantastic meal.

  • Cauliflower Steak

    I opted for the Cauliflower Steak, as often vegetarian food is the most flavorful — I was spot on! This couldn’t have been more delicious — the pomegranate on top was such a great contrast to the rest of the flavours.

Frequently Asked Questions

Should I book a table in advance?

Table reservations are accepted and recommended, especially for groups, events, and busy promotional evenings like Monday steak night. If you drop in without a booking or change your party size at the door, seating may be limited to first-come outdoor or pub-side areas.

Can I bring my dog?

Yes, dogs are welcome in designated areas such as the beer garden, undercover outdoor spaces, and the glasshouse, including during events like Tuesday Parma & Pups night.

What is parking like near the venue?

The pub is situated in residential side streets off Bendigo Street. While street parking options exist in the surrounding area, parking can be tight and difficult during peak times, making ride-shares or the tram practical alternatives.

Do they offer weeknight meal specials?

Yes, the pub runs scheduled weekday food specials, including Monday steak nights, Tuesday Parma nights, weekday counter meal discounts from 12–3pm, and weekday kids-eat-free promotions.
