I go to Bear Brass for the feel good factor there! The view, the music, and the staff makes every meal a pleasure. Today, I decided to go for a larger meal and really enjoyed the snapper fillet with it's crispy skin. It sat on top of a lovely stack of artichokes, asparagus and zucchini. To finish I enjoyed a coffee and a selection of ice cream and sorbet. Perfect for one of the first warm days in ages!

One of the best spots I’ve ever had a steak and beer at. The guy serving us was a legend and accommodated our group of 8. Reasonably priced for the location but was a great steak! Next time I’m in Melbourne, I’ll be giving it another go.

I enjoyed my brunch experience here as the food was delicious, the staff was attentive. This place has both indoor and outdoor seating area with a nice Yarra river view. Price wise is decent and not considered a fancy brunch compared to many other places in the city. I had the salmon egg benedict with toast which was very filling and this place has a good coffee as well. This would be such a good option as they opens in the morning and it is in a perfect location.

It was an amazing dining experience. Great customer service. Candy, who served us, was very warm & welcoming. Although we didn’t book a table, we we’re accommodated in a timely manner. The food was top tier. All the steak were cooked as requested. Pizza was stone-cooked. We left nothing but crumbs on the plate!

The food was amazing. beetroot bites are my favourite. I went with the waiter's recommendation on the dessert which was divine. I did catch the girl being a bit snarky with the kitchen staff, but I didn't say anything although I didn't like it. the place is welcoming and caters to solo dining as well as groups, always a win there.
