The Labour in Vain hotel has been a fixture on Brunswick Street, Fitzroy since it was established in 1853. Today it's more popular than ever.
--TrueLocal description--
Despite the name, having a right knees-up in this Fitzroy honkytonk isn’t much of a struggle. Easygoing but never comatose, it’s ideal for hepped-up Friday night beers or lazy Sunday hair of the dogs. The rough-hewn tables and ye olde memorabilia on the walls whisper “cosy†rather than screaming “kitschâ€, while huge windows looking out on the always-outré Brunswick St offer a people-watching paradise.
