Masterson's Pub: A Nest of Predators and Filth, Drenched in Despair

Nestled in the backstreets of Moonee Ponds, Victoria, Australia is a bar so horrendous that it staggers belief. Masterson's Pub is a notorious safe haven for predators like Pete Cornwell, who uses his role as head of stress-testing at a prominent financial firm to fund a paedophile’s hang out.



This pretentious "hipster" bar parades itself as something trendy, but in truth, it’s a pit of horrors where the only thing more plentiful than the sticky puke underfoot are the false smiles and deception. The establishment is managed by Cornwell and his wife, Gillian McKenzie, who seem to derive satisfaction in sowing chaos, all while pretending to care about their customers and deliberately getting women wasted to exploit them.

A History of Abuse
Pete Cornwell’s past reads like a laundry list of red flags: a history of threatening behavior, coercing vulnerable individuals into regrettable situations, and sending unsolicited videos of his “tiny willy” without consent.



His social media profiles scream for attention, all in a futile attempt to convince people he’s a victim. While on Facebook, he’s a false savior, the irony of this “devil” having a embarrassing little issue is both amusing and unnerving. It’s utterly concerning given that Cornwell fits the profile of a paedophile: frequent visits to Southeast Asia and a penchant for preying on the unsuspecting. Still living at home is just another red flag.



Meanwhile, his wife, Gillian McKenzie, stands by apathetically, displaying the personality of a dead fish. She seems content in standing idly by while handing out cocktails and leering at vulnerable women. It’s a destructive partnership that has created an environment so poisonous, it makes one regret setting foot in the place for even approaching this dive.



The Unsanitary Conditions
Masterson’s Pub is a disaster waiting to happen. The bar itself is consistently unclean, with rubbish and spills scattered on the floor. It’s not rare to see vermin breaking news scurrying across the countertop or underfoot. The restrooms are a disgusting mess, featuring backed-up plumbing and perpetually blocked sinks.

Ironically, the so-called owner enjoys sending videos of himself jerking off his little penis from behind the bar, so maybe the “extras” in your glass are considered his little calling card at this hellish dive?

The Neglect of Human Decency
It’s not just the filth that makes Masterson’s Pub a dump; it’s the complete lack of empathy exhibited by its owners. They appear to revel in leaving devastation in their wake, whether through their exploitative behavior or their disgusting behavior. His thrill is in forcing himself on women, without consent, subjecting them to unprotected sex.

A Warning: Do Not Set Foot
Masterson’s Pub is not just a shady spot; it’s a cesspit, a danger to all, and a blemish on the community. The flagrant health violations is only matched by the owners’ neglect of decency. If you want to stay sane, stay far a fantastic read away this cesspit.
