If the I could give 0 stars I would, the staff here make you feel unwanted and the waiting time for food is unrealistic even on a quiet night, I have been here a few times now and over the last couple of months it has gone down hill, I believe the staff need retraining on customer service as well as the quality of food needs to increase. They can’t seem to cook a steak medium, I could of pulled one out of the freezer and threw it on the plate and it would of been cooked better.

I was celebrating my friend's birthday in one of the function rooms at your establishment. I understand that your staff has the right to limit my alcohol consumption, and I respect that. However, I was surprised when your manager asked me to leave. I believe I was not behaving in an unruly or disorderly manner. I was disappointed with the way I was treated. I observed other patrons downstairs who were more intoxicated and boisterous than I was, but they were not asked to leave. Additionally, I found the service to be lacking and the staff to be rude and condescending. I will be sure to share my experience with others and advise them not to book events or visit your venue.

FOOD & DRINK The Aussie Nash is part of the A.L.H. Group of Hotels, whose stable includes the Royal Exchange Hotel, the Brunswick, the Newstead, the Indooroopilly, Newmarket and many others in and around Brisbane. We‘ve been to most of them and have never failed to be impressed by the high standard of food, service and hygiene. The A.N. was no exception. My wife and I dined on a quiet Saturday night in November. We kept the ordering protocol fairly simple: a schooner of Great Northern Super Crisp for me and a lemon, lime and bitters for my wife, followed by two main meals, the senior steak with chips, salad and pepper sauce ($19) and the Buddha bowl with lemon and pepper flavoured calamari for my wife ($28). My steak was well cooked to perfection, just the way I like it, but still tender and full of flavour. The crispy chips and nutritious salad made the perfect accompaniment. The Buddha bowl had rice, seaweed, avocado, cucumber, tomato, vegetables and lettuce, and topped with a soy and sesame dressing. All the ingredients were fresh, tasty and wholesome. Adding the calamari was a genius move to give it an extra zing and lift. We ended with our fav sticky date pud at 10 pesos. The pud was sweet and moist, covered with a syrupy butterscotch sauce, and sprinkled with a few drops of castor sugar. All meals were nicely presented to the table on stylish and colourful crockery. AMBIENCE The A.N. is airy, spacious and homely, with plenty of room to stretch out and get comfortable. Outside the bistro is the billiards area, and there’s also a pub and a poker machine room, so there are many different spaces here to enjoy. We stuck to the bistro area. The decor is retro industrial style, with high ceilings, strong lighting, wood and steel furniture and carpets throughout. This all works beautifully to create an inviting, warm and welcoming atmosphere. Being a quiet night, there was only a smattering of other guests, but that didn’t detract from the overall cool ambience. Acoustics were good and we were easily able to converse. SERVICE It was a breeze to order using the app. You simply scan the little barcode that’s attached to a disc on your table, and place your order. Payment is done immediately, and you’ll receive an email of your bill. This simplifies the whole procedure, although only afterwards did I notice that seniors are entitled to 20% discount off regular menu items, but of course the app didn’t recognise that, so we lost out. After completing the ordering, meals were brought out to the table pretty quickly by a super nice young man, neatly turned out in a smart black uniform. He was polite, friendly and attentive, and in his capable hands, everything ran smoothly from beginning to end, and that’s just how we like it! COST All up, for a schooner of Great Northern, a cold drink, two main meals and a single dessert we paid 70 pesos, so thank you to the A.L.H. Group for at least providing some financial relief to hard-pressed senior citizens. This at least is an affordable evening out for us, and it’s worth mentioning here, that most of the A.L.H. group hotels that we’ve visited have seniors menus and modest prices for both food and drink. TOILETS Toilets are behind the bistro. There are ample male and female cubicles, and they’re clean and well provisioned, although I did notice some graffiti in the male toilet. PARKING There’s easy parking right outside, in the venue’s own car park, which it shares with the popular and well-stocked Dan Murphy liquor store. This makes it extra convenient, especially if you’re still thirsty after your meal, as you can always pop into D.M. to top up the beer or wine cellar. SUMMARY We love the A.L.H. Hotel Group and have had positive experiences at all their hotels. They have consistently high standards, with reasonable prices to match. The Aust Nash as it is affectionately called, now goes on our list of favourites for a return visit. With great food and service, modest prices, a relaxed ambience, clean toilets and easy parking, you have all the ingredients for a perfect night out.

This is a good bar. There is a great (and clean) pool table with good pool cues, a load of gambling options and a fair selection of drinks. They have good priced drink specials like a pint for $6 and the staff seem very nice and helpful. Very good location, especially if you're coming or going to the Gabba. They have daily meal deals, however I was a bit disappointed with the food. Our meals came out at different times and it didn't seem the best of quality (think it was a frozen burger).
