Dropped into the Duke of Wellington on a Sunday arvo for a drink in the main bar before heading up to the rooftop for a meal. Despite the drizzle and bursts of sunshine, the rooftop felt welcoming — plenty of space, greenery, and a relaxed vibe. We did have to wipe down our own table, but once settled, it was a great spot to unwind. The roast of the day was perfect, with rich, flavoursome gravy, and the chicken parmy hit the mark too. The salad was a bit soggy, but honestly, who comes here for the salad? Great Sunday atmosphere overall.
Had a lovely dinner at the rooftop, Some sides that were okay. But the prawn pasta with chorizo was a win. ☺️
I hosted my 30th birthday function in Arthur's cocktail bar. It was an amazing space, with a great atmosphere! Easily fit 40 people, but could have catered to more. I hired a DJ who brought his own decks, and there was plenty of room for dancing. The functions coordinator (Hannah) went above and beyond prior to the event, including adjusting the layout and creating a detailed run sheet for the night. The food was FANTASTIC, and the bar staff (Justin & Sami) were fabulous. Overall, a really great place to host a function and well worth the reasonable price :)
Really enjoy dinning at The Duke, often having lunch and the occassional eveing meal with my wife. The food is excellent and the staff are friendly and attentive Its also our regular wednesday after work drinks venue.
$29 for this bowl of lettuce. Menu says 'caesar salad'. Had to go up and and ask for bacon to be added to the salad. They offered to bring a bowl of bacon separately? On what planet is a bowl of lettuce and sauce $29? Absolute joke, would definitely not recommend. Gave 5 stars for atmosphere because Milly Joel was playing but otherwise AVOID.
