Group of 8 of us including a baby in a pram are visiting from Perth. Being our first time over here we struggled finding “family friendly” places to eat. Restaurant 1903 staff were quick to accommodate our group 2 out of the 4 nights we were here. Walked in off the street and they were more than happy to push some tables together and make room for us. Highly recommend the chicken tacos, grilled chicken burger and the wagyu beef burger. They even had a veggie burger option. The standard burger and nugget kids meals also great no complaints from us and if we are ever back for dinner in this part of Melbourne would definitely dine again! Forgot to mention they do a great aperol spritz!! Thanks guys! Less

Love it here. Friendly staff, amazing food and music at just the right volume for an enjoyable evening. Have been here two nights in a row and will probably come again for our last night tomorrow. Less

Haloumi cheese was beyond excellent! We also enjoyed our mains, lamb fillet & pumpkin & sage ravioli. Just that the young service staff seems a little bit clueless at times (eg not giving menu) but I think he might be new. Will definitely return for more next time. Less

Although the setting was a bit dated, the food and service were exceptional and made up for it. We would definitely dine there again next time we are in Melbourne. Less

Fabulous food and drinks at great prices. The music wasn’t to loud either nice a soft in the background so you could still talk. Wait staff were lovely and meals came out quite quickly. Less

Wonderful place! Dined in last night with family and had a lovely time. Service was great and food even better. Friendly staff, and restaurant had good, cozy vibes. I will definitely be recommending this place to friends and family who visit Melbourne 😄 Less

Was looking for somewhere to eat at the last minute and found 1903. Great vegetarian starter and Monteiths Pale Ale on tap. Recommended everyone stop by 💯👏🏻 Less

Absolutely fantastic place to dine!! A huge shout out to the staff in the Restaurant who were super friendly & so accomadating. Venue was clean & very enjoyable to be in. Happy Hour is between 5pm-7pm which includes great pricing on both food ($10-15) & drink ($5-$12)! Normal pricing for meals after 7pm ranging from approx. $25-$40. Food was exceptional & worth the money. $15 big hot breakfast which includes coffee/tea & juice is a great value. Less

Great food. I bought a group of 12 people, all meals were fantastic, great range of options. Staff were wonderful. Super service. Only good things to say about this place. Very accomodating. Busy night, but no complaints. Less

Ate here multiple times while staying at the Great Southern Hotel and would definitely come back. The staff are absolutely lovely and more than happy to recommend their favourite dishes (which are always divine). The food is always delicious, my favourite was the mild chilli chicken (pictured below)! Prices are closer to the $30 mark for one person but that’s just cost of living now. Absolutely recommend!
