Buds Tavern

It might be a new bar designed to look like a pub from when Paul Hogan was at his peak, but if it looks like a duck, and there’s cold beer, that’s good enough for us. Wedged between the cafes and takeaways of Husky’s main drag, Bud’s young team also spruiks coast-friendly cocktails, natural wine, and a “nan’s plate” loaded with cabanossi and cheese.

Best for: Melbourne Bitter with a meat pie and a big helping of nostalgia.
