John M Lively Atmosphere and Live Entertainment
Regular live musicians and lively weekly open mic nights bring vibrant energy and entertainment to the venue.
The atmosphere was good; loud, raucous, live music, drunk young men.
Sharon Anne Easy Tram Access for Group Gatherings
Convenient positioning directly next to public tram connections makes meeting up seamless for locals and out-of-town guests.
So close to a tram stop, it was really convenient for my friend from interstate, who was staying in Glenelg.
Sharon Anne Convenient Stop for Pre- and Post-Event Drinks
Flexible zones make it effortless to meet up for drinks and finger food before or after shows and local events.
The Goody had been a great place to attended for both an event and a little gathering for “a few beers” after an event.

Hearty classics and comforting pub favorites
Chicken schnitzel
I ordered the 300g chicken schnitzel with peppercorn gravy and asked for the gravy on the side so I could dip it as I liked.
Matthew R Roast of the day
The roasts are the best we've tasted out anywhere.
Marlene C Steak
My partner thought their steak was the best they've eaten and my meal was perfect.
Corcoran Street Beef and spinach lasagna
Excellent beef and spinach lasagna. Hot and delicious, served in the baking dish it’s cooked in so stays nice and hot throughout.

Mushroom arancini
The arancini were my favourite, but they're always my favourite. As long as they're crispy on the outside and soft in the middle it's hard to go wrong. These were both those things.
Sharon Anne Sweet potato wedges
Upon serving the beer was cold and good and the sweet potato wedges absolutely excellent.
Alex Lockwood Desserts
The desserts were substantial and so tasty. If you are full, they are big enough to share- so no real excuse to not try one.
Ann Mohler Mini hamburgers
The finger food was a great range for both people with dietary restrictions and should we say normal food. 🍱 but also extremely tasty with the Mini hamburgers being my favourite.

Before you head over
Practical tips for parking, ordering, and dining at The Goody
Arrive Early for Rear Parking
The rear car park can fill up quickly prior to peak evening rush, with spots scarce by 5:45 PM. Alternatively, the pub is located right next to a tram stop.
Plan to Share Generous Desserts
Main portions and schnitzels are very filling, and dessert servings are large enough to share across the table if you are dining in a group.
Request Gravy on the Side
When ordering schnitzels, you can request your peppercorn gravy on the side to dip and pour as you like.
