Located at the start of the trendy Brunswick Street café strip, the Old Colonial Inn is an oasis, free of the oh-so-funky decor and attitude that have become de rigueur in this part of town. It is not dowdy, just unpretentious. Featuring a beer garden out the back, as well as a front bar, it regularly hosts local musicians and acoustic nights, as well as a weekly comedy night on Mondays. Among the tasty dishes on offer are butternut and potato soup, Hokkien noodles tossed in peanut sauce, Turkish pide with dips and focaccias.
