  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Weekly Rotating Craft Beer Taps

    The bar pairs its core beer range with an ever-changing rotation of craft taps updated each week alongside value-packed happy hours.

    Good regular taps and a weekly change set of taps to mix things up and provide variety for a regular like me.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Berry Crumble

    I followed the roast with a berry crumble and ice cream. It was good but not as perfect as the roast.

    Sticky toffee pudding was a nice finale with apple crumble also available.
