Used the Watch-house for a small private dinner party. Absolutely great to have somewhere that caters for smaller functions in a private space. Amazing service and the food was very generous portions. Highly recommend 🌟

The Watch House was a wonderful setting for our family of nine to celebrate my 80th and my son’s 50th birthday. Chelsea was lovely and a very efficient and friendly host. This made the celebration a very relaxed and a memorable occasion. The food was excellent. Thank you so much.

The L.A. delivers outstanding value for money both for meals and drinks. My wife and I dined on a quiet Wed night in mid-Apr. Unbeknown to us, Wed night is “Steak Night”. And what a nice surprise that was! For only 19 pesos you can get a 250g rump with sauce, chips and salad. It didn't take much convincing for us to choose that option. We added a side serve of coleslaw for only 6 pesos, so for 45, we got two steaks with all the trimmings and a coleslaw. And it’s not as if these guys stint on either quality or quantity when they hand out these specials. These were fab steaks, beautifully prepared with love, care and attention to detail. They were well done just the way we like them, and full of taste and flavour, with a spicy pepper sauce for me and a smooth mushroom sauce for my wife. The chips that accompanied the steaks were golden brown and crispy, and the little salads were nutritious and wholesome. The creamy coleslaw rounded off two perfect meals. Serving sizes were generous, and I liked the neat presentation on stylish yellow crockery. We couldn’t have been happier. There were decent drinks deals too. My fav Gage Road Single Fin ale was on special for just 7 a pint, so one of those and a cold drink for my wife cost only 10. Put all that together and for 55 pesos we got two high quality meals and two drinks. You just couldn’t beat that for value for money these days, especially in this era of Weimar Republic-like hyperinflation that we’re enduring, thanks to our government's profligacy and the disastrous decisions of the Reserve Bank. But it’s not just in the food and drink department that these guys excel. We enjoyed everything about our evening, from the fast friendly and polite service to a cool, laid back and relaxed vibe. When we arrived, we were warmly greeted by the manager, who immediately made us feel welcome. It was fairly empty so we chose a table in the middle of the main dining area. It was a large and comfy wooden table with wooden chairs. Floors are timber, and with strong lighting and white walls, it has a modern look and feel about it. You will also notice how spotlessly clean and well maintained the place is. What I also like about it, is that there’s no confusing, or time consuming app ordering. You just go up to the bar and place your order. Nice and simple. And within less than 15 minutes the meals were on the table, all done with a professional demeanour and a nice smile. Only thing missing was a few more patrons. At one point we were the only guests, although later a large group of rather lively senior citizens arrived, and that did brighten things up a bit. A few groups of young people drifted in and out, most I suspect coming for drinks only. There’s a pleasant but smallish outdoor area where one could sit, and it has views of Caxton Street down below, but I guess that’s only suitable for summer. Being a chilly autumn eve we preferred to sit indoors. Toilets are also clean, well provisioned and easy to find at the back of the bar area, with ample male and female cubicles. Parking can be a bit challenging, but there’s a carpark at The Barracks shopping plaza across the road, where you can get two hours free. And you’ll be able to do your shopping afterwards at the well stocked Coles supermarket and the popular BWS liquor store. I was told by the chatty maître d, that Mon, Tues and Wed are special nights, with Wed night being “Steak Night”. This place deserves to be better patronised and we’ll certainly be back. Thanks guys for a great night.

We booked the Verandah Bar at Lord Alfred Hotel for a corporate function of approx 70 guests. Guests had a great time and there was positive feedback all round. The food timings were punctual and the staff were very responsive and pleasant to deal with. Also thanks to Cara the events manager for her timely communication from beginning to end throughout the whole process.

Alfie's Craft house was a great venue to celebrate a 21st Birthday. Atmosphere was great. Food platters worked well, and staff were very pleasant and accommodating. I would definitely recommend this venue to others.
