I was expecting more of a local feel, given that the venue carries the suburb's name. However, on Friday evening, the crowd was mostly quite young, almost as if it were in the city centre. The staff were very attentive, and the bar area upstairs was neat and lively. It doesn’t have a particularly unique character, but the happy hour is excellent.
This was a really fun trivia night, but I was not a big fan of the vibe of the bar and of the offerings. I asked about the beers, and the bartender just told me to look at the taps. I asked if she had an IPA, and she said, “I don’t know..” This was the bartender. It was a bit odd. I wasn’t even asking if she could recommend a particular beer, and the place was not even that busy, it wasn’t like there was a big line behind me and she had to hurry to answer; she just was brusque. Also, shouldn’t the bartender know what beers they have? All the servers were brusque. Perhaps they were a bit anxious because they knew it was trivia night and they were going to be slammed, but no one seemed particularly happy to have guests there. The margaritas that I had were not great either. The bar/restaurant was also really brightly lit. Maybe it was just for trivia night so we could read our answers? But I’ve been to other bars with trivia, and they are not this brightly lit. It was really offputting. Like being in a big supermarket. These are all the reasons for the three-star review. On the upside, one of the people who worked there grabbed a table and two chairs so that we could be closer to the trivia area. He was very sweet. And, the trivia master was amazing! But I heard that it was his last day. At least that’s what he was saying over the mic. The trivia was fun; the questions were engaging, and it ended up being a packed house! Also, their wine choices by the glass were not bad. I’m just not a fan of the brightness of the bar and the quality of the drinks and the server’s attitudes.
Ailish was great and super helpful. The function room was perfect for what I wanted and the staff were helpful. Most of the food was great as was the service. We did have a couple of troublemakers come in but security was quickly called. Thank you for a wonderful night.
Nice pub with a decent outdoor area. We stopped here for a few drinks and shared dishes. The prices are your regular pub prices and the food was surprisingly good. We got a pizza and a bowl of fries to share. I would definitely return when in the area. Only odd thing was, we sat in the area where smoking and eating divides. We saw the food runner bringing our food out but when he saw where we sat, he looked directly at us and immediately turned around maybe 2m in front of us without saying a word. Instead he started to speed off. I got up and chased him as my friend moved us to the next table which was literally less than 1m away. I understand they can't let you eat when you sit on the wrong side but attempting to run, after being so close to our table without communicating was such strange behaviour.
I came here couple of time and ordered specials and it was mind blowing, service was fast and food price reasonably 🫶🏻✨💫✌️ Will come back for more specials.
