Overall 4 stars. When we ordered, the waiter forgot that we had ordered hot tea, and we waited for a long time for it to be served, but eventually we didn't get it. The spaghetti was good (but we found a small stone halfway through the meal), so we were shocked and the waiter told us that the dish will be free. The fried calamari was good, but the portion was very small.

Absolutely love the service. Classic margaritas never disappointed.Oyster was outstanding and very fresh. Grilled fish, smoked trout was yum. sadly my moreton bay pasta was too salty for my liking.

We booked here for a hens lunch on a Saturday, we had the private room. Amy/Aimee introduced herself to us and it was the best day from there, she kept our drinks full, she provided the best service, constantly (but not over the top) checking in on us and made sure we had the greatest time. She really knew how to work the room! Thank you for making our day so special !!!! Love the girls from Hollys hens!

Popped in for one drink and stayed for over an hour making the most of there $16 margaritas. Had a lovely table with cushions on the balcony. Drinks were fast and the venue was super cool and clean. I accidently left my keys there and the staff placed them behind the bar in a safe place. Cauliflower popcorn was delicious aswell!

I wanted to love this place but our experience was unfortunately so disappointing. The staff weren’t welcoming, bordering on rude, and almost seemed to resent having customers there. The Moreton Bay Bug Lettuce Cups tasted of cold off fish instead of that delicate sweet flavour. The Bread Social sourdough would have been so much more delicious if it had been heated - soft and crunchy - instead of simply cut off a cold loaf and served with a pat of hard butter impossible to spread. Love the setting though. Would come back just for a drink, and with lower expectations.
