We've stayed here on half a dozen occasions and love it every time. The location is perfect, so close to the Dandenongs & the Yarra Valley. Some rooms have a view of the lake which makes sitting on the balcony very relaxing. You can walk to either the bistro or the Collective and sit inside or out in the beer garden. Great swimming pool in a nice surrounding. Friendly staff make it all the more welcoming. We'll definitely be back. Regards, Michael
We went in for a family night dinner. This was my first time to the York. It was ok, at best. The menu was quite small. I was after a spaghetti dish which unfortunately didn't appear to be in the menu, aside from the kids option, I ended up with the Parma instead. We were also seated in a small segregated area where we wernt able to watch the football on the night. Aside from that, the York has friendly staff, lots of parking and prices seemed reasonable. I would suggest this spot for someone wanting a quiet space, not so ideal for couples, friends, kids or sport enthusiasts. The York is also located where transport would need to be via a car, just a heads up.
We went to York Restaurant in Lilydale without a prior booking, so they seated us outside. The atmosphere was peaceful and cozy—until our food arrived. Suddenly, we were under attack by wasps, which was extremely annoying. When we informed the staff, they said there was nothing they could do about it. The food was excellent—if only we had been able to enjoy it without the wasps! When we got too frustrated and decided to leave, we asked for a takeaway container, but they refused, saying we had to finish our food there. This was very frustrating. If you plan to visit this place, make sure to book a table inside so you can fully enjoy the beautiful setting and delicious food. But if there’s no indoor seating available, I wouldn’t recommend eating outside.
What an awful experience we had at this facility. Staying there for long weekend, group of 11. After checking in we discovered that our second swipe card to the room was not working. This happened 3 times and had to go back to reception. At 10pm tried to gain entry and had to go searching for someone to let us in. Dined in the bar that evening. Service was woful. Our meals were served spasmodically. Most of our party had been served and finished eating by the time my meal came out which was a simple schnitzel. One other guest ordered entree spring rolls which came out 2nd last and had to be sent back because they were cold and only half cooked. Prawns were so over cooked that they could not be peeled. Sent back and got a refund. Will not be back.
This facility is fantastic for us, so close to home. Both the Bistro & the Collective are outstanding. The food is excellent, everything we have tried is excellent. The Hospitality staff, namely, Georgia, Abby, Shannon, Josie, Erin, Paul, Kylie, Mel. The staff are very professional and certainly lead by example. Being in a wheelchair has drawn me back, everywhere at The York is easily accessible with no restrictions. I highly recommend this facility. Great Pokie facility as well.
