Scratch-Made Sunday Beef Roast
Prepared fresh on-premise, the traditional beef Sunday roast comes complete with genuine horseradish, two styles of roast potatoes, and scratch-made gravy.
Everything was perfect from the generous serve of beef with a genuine horseradish sauce, through to the two types of roast potatoes (one was extra crispy), on to a selection of vegetables cooked exactly to my liking. And the gravy was excellent - clearly not out of a packet.
Rob White Knowledgeable Celiac-Safe Dining
Patrons with celiac disease can dine with confidence thanks to attentive staff who understand cross-contamination and provide safe, tailored gluten-free adjustments.
Savannah who was extremely helpful with catering for celiac and understood cross contamination. They were happy to replace the chips for husselback potatoes at no extra cost and whipped up a special cheesey toast despite not being a menu option for GF.

John Rea Signature Weekly Parma & Steak Rituals
Midweek dinner traditions like Tuesday parma night and Wednesday steak specials provide high-quality dining rituals at neighborhood-friendly prices.
The Parma was outstanding, top 5 in Melbourne in my books. Excellent thickness to the chicken, the side coleslaw was fresh and crunchy as well as the chips. Will definitely add this to my weekly routine.

S C Sunday Roast
the roast at The Park is just sublime. They don't tend to rotate the roast very often so you can reliably expect a beautifully cooked piece of beef rump and perfectly crunchy roasted potatoes, peas and a dollop of horseradish.

Sophia Howard Chicken Wings
The chicken wings were incredible, cooked perfectly and marinated so well that every bite hit different, sticky, smoky, just the right amount of spice without overpowering the flavor.
Zaher “Zeus The Prophet” Neket Berry Crumble
I followed the roast with a berry crumble and ice cream. It was good but not as perfect as the roast.
Rob White Sticky Toffee Pudding
Sticky toffee pudding was a nice finale with apple crumble also available.
