I love how this place does drinks - there's four taps of rotating craft beer/cider, and once they're out they tap a new flavour. They ran out of 2 beers while we were there, and a new keg was quickly tapped each time. They have cardboard signs serving as labels - an easy way to keep the signage current - and at $8-9/pint, its a great way to try different beers without damaging your wallet. For wine they only offer 1 red and 1 white each night, and those change daily. The cocktails are made with care, with a good selection of classics (martini, Manhattan) and some fruity modern conceptions as well. Food was quite good, despite some of the portions being small. The cheesesteak for $16 could easily be consumed in a few bites. The pulled pork for $16 was delicious, served between two toasted pieces of delicious bread (not the "hoagie" I was expecting, but some of the best pulled pork I've had in Australia), and a better serve than the cheesesteak. The sliders were, again, on the small side. At $4/each or 4 for $15, you'd need 4 to make a meal. I found the chicken sliders a bit bland, possibly being overpowered by the potatoes in the garlic mash. The beef sliders were much better, with a delicious pickle relish. Of course, I had to grab the wings (6 for $9 or 12 for $16) which were one of the standouts for the night. A bit sweet at first, they pack a bit of a punch with a heat that builds. The three chip options (chilli cheese fries, sweet potato wedges, and steak fries with chipotle mayo) were all pretty good. Rumour (or rather, Facebook) has it that this place does $0.50 wings and $5 hot dogs on Wednesdays - definitely worth checking out. Come early if you want a table - we managed to grab one of the last of them at 6 pm on a Saturday, and didn't see much turnover during our 3 hour stay.

We dropped our bags on a table and the girl taking orders was helpful and patient with us while we made our choices. Turns out it was pizza night, all you can eat for $15. Husband was in heaven! Technically everyone at the table has to order it, but our girl let me order pasta carbonara. We got our beers and a buzzer for food pickup. The room was busy, but a bunch of tables left and staff stayed on it to clear and set the tables for new customers. Pizza was delivered and shortly after the buzzer went off. Everything was delicious! This place is well worth stopping for food and drink. It's noisy, but in a good way!

We had the: 1) half pork ribs in the BBQ sauce - a little dry, so ask for extra sauce 2) Mac and cheese - very tasty with bacon bits 3) chicken wings - best we have tasted out of the USA, although the blue cheese mayo dip was not so good, make sure to ask for a side of ranch. Extensive cocktail list and plenty of beer on tap. Make sure to try the Guava-Tini very nice :)

Well, this pub was pretty terrible. In fact it seemed to be one of those bars that had found itself in the basement of a newer development, and was pretty forgettable. Oh, and don't expect a decent beer selection either because their isn't one. Probably best to give this place a miss.

This was a mistake... the food was all very mediocre and the restaurant/sports bar was very hard to navigate. They checked our IDs multiple times just to get in line at the bar and order food. My friend ordered a gluten free pizza (8 inch) which was significantly smaller than the normal sized ones (12 inch) regardless of it being the same price. There was a ton of red pepper flakes, but other than that, minimal flavor, very burnt crust and it came out after everyone else at the table had already finished eating. The tacos and burgers were really mediocre.

I understand the construction going ahead but overall Prince hotel has lowered it's standard. Used to love going there for food and kids play area. Only thing I can rave about it now is they have the best beer on tap - mountain culture status quo.

Unfortunately this pub isn't the easiest to get to, if you are reliant upon public transport, like…read moreI tend to be when I am wandering around Sydney. However, it does happen to be on a major road so I guess that is a good thing. The pub itself is actually not bad, and has had a complete makeover. It really isn't one of my favourites though, however they do have a good beer selection, though not necessarily one that is all that outstanding. If was worth the effort getting here, but not one that I would make a regular trip to.

The food was amazing, The Linguini was great with lots of cheese, the pork ribs were amazing but spoiler it is a lot of food especially for $24. The Shrimp pasta was okay but the actual shrimp was tasty. Service was great, less than 20 minute wait. The only thing this place needs is more features like Claw Machines to keep the kids occupied or an arcade game. But other than that this place is great, would definitely recommend.
