Mount Erica Hotel

The Mount Erica Hotel is a historic pub at 420 High Street, Prahran, on the corner of Williams Road. For dog owners the draw is the pair of large paved courtyards out the back, which include covered and heated sections, so the dog stays comfortable year round while you eat.

The dog setup. Dogs are welcomed in the two courtyards, which is the main dog-friendly space. Community reports say well-behaved dogs are also allowed inside when the pub is not busy, though the courtyards are the safe bet. There is limited footpath seating out front. Water bowls are usually available outside. Dogs must be leashed and well-behaved.

Good to know. It is a solid bistro pub, well regarded for its Sunday roast and steak, with an indoor fireplace and a weekly Tuesday steak day. With more than 1,400 reviews it is a busy local, so expect a lively room at peak meal times.

Getting there and parking. The number 6 tram stops nearby at Williams Road and High Street. Street parking is available but limited, so check the signs, especially in the evening.

Nearby with the dogs. Victoria Gardens and its off-leash oval are a short walk for a leg-stretch, and Chapel Street is close by for a wander.
