| 06-10-2011 : sophie : My husband and I drove all the way up from Mandurah to go here for a beer on tap. We had already had lunch somewhere else on the way.
We waited at the bar to be served for about 5 minutes. There was about 4 other customers in the whole place. When my husband asked for a beer, the barman said that we had to order a meal to get a beer.
I said that we just wanted to have one beer, can we just sit here for a few minutes with a drink. No...you have to order a meal. Unfortunately the only tables where you can just have a drink with no food are already taken.(that was the other 4 customers)
So we left and will never return.
A little hint...if your place is empty and a customer wants to buy a drink...let them spend their money. :: [original context] |
| 19-12-2007 : Mooks : Went for lunch yesterday and was totally underwhelmed by the whole experience. Poor table - despite other tables being unoccupied. Food was uninspired, very ordinary, bland - like basic 'pub fare'. Despite them assuring us prior to booking that they offered a range of vegetarian options, there were none on the menu and the only one offered to us was the lamb shanks pasta without the lambshanks in it - not the greatest. Service was really hopeless - slow, unattentive and unfriendly. None of the staff looked like they wanted to be there, and if was almost impossible to get anyone's attention. Staff couldn't remember what we'd ordered. We waited almost an hour for entree and fifteen minutes to pay the bill at the end - despite sullen-faced wait staff hanging around the place with seemingly little to do. One of my most disappointing restaurant experiences in recent times. I definitely wouldn't go back - even if it was completely free. :: [original context] |
| 01-03-2007 : wopfr3 : I booked this restaurant for my partner's birthday - he is a microbrewing enthusiast and was keen to taste their beers. We ordered their OSB lager and were informed that they were not longer brewing their own beer and were offering another commercial beer in place of it. This was a big let down as both their web site and hard copy menus had not been changed (apparently they had not been a microbrewery for some time). I'm sure the food is great, as is the view but we decided that we were really only there for the beer and if that was not available we may as well dine next door at Zafferano (and pay double, on principle LOL) :: [original context] |
| 29-11-2005 : ngforce : So bad that I didn't want to pay for it...
Well, it is kind a hard to start after such astonishing reviews before us, but I would rank this place as the one of the most dissapointing places that I have ever had a meal.
My pasta tasted as though the microwave had leached out the flavour from it already limp composition. The pasta was stuck together and the sauce disappointingly watery and tasteless.
The crab dish unfotunately lacked freshness, tasting as though it had been keeping the pasta company in the bottom of the fridge for about 5 days. :: [original context] |
| 08-12-2004 : Sarah : Would have to agree with you Melanie.
We had dinner on the weekend with three other couples, food was okay..nothing outstanding but it seemed our waitress could not wait to get us out the door, she was clearing the table while we were still eating and after dinner we had to ask for some glasses back so we could finish our (extremely overpriced) wine. Wouldn't recommend this one. :: [original context] |
