Today I went to Percy's new pub The North Fitzroy Arms Hotel, off St. Georges Road. A more relaxed country style atmosphere than the old Percy's, with a nice menu for counter lunches. In the main bar there is Fitzroy wall hangings with the Carlton wall hangings in the dining area.

Looks like a visit there next time in Melbourne. Might be another Ashes night like a few years ago.

Just what Carlton needs. Thank God somebody has opened a good restaurant. The poor dears have had to put up with crap food for all these years....

Have checked it out inside - looks great.

No sticky carpet.

They're opening in the next 1-2 weeks.

Get your bells on.

Sentimental much?

I don't know if spiv is the correct word. I think you've been reading too many Rexy posts.

I wonder if they do midnight crepes for Cripps.

CK, you're the expert here on fine dining in Carlton, your thoughts?

Different pub.

Nah, I think it's the same one. Used to be Haskins.
