Reviews for Moon Dog World

This is a wonderful spot for families looking to enjoy quality food, refreshing drinks, and a relaxed atmosphere. The restaurant provides a welcoming ambiance that suits all ages, making it a great choice for family gatherings. The food and drinks are of excellent quality, clearly made with care and fresh ingredients. There’s a varied menu that caters to diverse tastes, offering everything from classic comfort foods to unique dishes that make the dining experience memorable. The staff is attentive and friendly, ensuring that each guest feels valued. They go above and beyond to accommodate any requests, contributing to an enjoyable dining experience. Pricing is reasonable, especially given the quality and portion sizes, making it a great value for families. It's worth noting that there is a 15% surcharge on public holidays, which is well-communicated and fairly standard for many places, given the holiday operating costs. Parking is convenient and secure, with a spacious lot available behind the venue. This is especially helpful as the front of the restaurant has some “no parking” zones, so guests should plan to park at the back to avoid any inconvenience. On a warm day, their beer selection is a fantastic way to cool down. They offer a variety of options to suit different preferences, from refreshing lagers to richer ales, enhancing the experience, especially if you’re seated outdoors. Overall, it’s a fantastic place to relax and enjoy time with family, while also appealing to casual diners who appreciate a lively atmosphere. The entire family enjoyed the vibe, and it’s definitely a place we would return to for future occasions.

I love this place! It has a great vibe. It is perfect for a relaxed casual get together, I invited friends and family for my birthday. Everybody is impressed with the set up the moment they first walk in, and its welcoming for all ages. Staff are friendly and the food and the drinks are great!

Awesome hidden bar with great vibes. We went there on a Friday evening and happened to be there while several businesses were having their Christmas year end party. Lively and bustling with locals getting their drink on. The bar has endless options of drinks from cocktails to juice drinks. Smoking area can be found in the back. The food is good enough, but the emphasis is on the drinks. Lots of seating space is available, and parking is plentiful. The staff is humorously kind even during the high traffic times. Would recommend this place to meet friends for drinks any time of the week, also good if you need to bring your kids along. Loved the POG Sour beer 👌

Went with some friends for a Saturday lunch. The food took 45-50 mins to arrive. We had drinks which made the wait ok. It's a great place for families. There were a lot of kids running about but they were all good and seemed entertained. When the food came, we were a little famished and I forgot to take photos. Sorry. The food was good. Overall, I will definitely suggest this for families.

I came here for my first time last night with my wife and our toddler. Firstly it was great to see a brewery cater for little ones with a playground and some outdoor activities such as sand pits. We thoroughly enjoyed our meals as well. I had the pork ribs and my wife had the chicken. Both were delicious however the chips were kind of bland and tastes like they had been sitting there for a while and dried out. The drinks and beers were also a hit. We will certainly be back, especially for the vibes!
