Good Galley!
Galley Diner is a no fuss casual dining experience with great burgers, loaded fries and all the food goodness you secretly crave. You wouldn't expect to find this gem in Daylesford, so it's a pleasant unexpected treat!
American inspired furnishings that gets the diner feel right, with an amusing Wall of Fire of hot sauce to warm the cockles of your heart.
We had the Galley Burger with a beef patty, cheese, lettuce, tomato, pickles and house sauce. The loaded fries with Mexican inspired toppings and the Nutella thick shake malt!
The Galley Burger was fantastic, fresh ingredients and the patty cooked perfectly. It doesn't make you fall asleep and was a joy to eat. My only criticism, is the house sauce. For some strange reason they barely put enough of it, it's so good and yet, it's like it's not there. It reminds me of the Big Mac sauce if you're looking for a comparison. We remedied this madness with tomato and mustard sauce on the table which made the burger complete (so I recommend making your own concoction using the Wall of Fire too).
The loaded fries on the other hand was jam-packed with sour cream, salsa, avocado and cucumber. For $5, this was a steal. A truckload of well cooked, tasty chips that worked so well with the trims.
The Nutella thick shake was exactly what the heart desired. Tasty, big, not too sweet and was a complete joy to experience.
The wait staff were fast and friendly, couldn't fault the service.
There's so many more items on the menu I want to try, from the BBQ pork ribs, to the fried chicken and the calamari rings, but that would be for another time in Daylesford. Some of the pricing can be on the expensive side however.
Galley Diner is fantastic, gets the basics right without being pretentious and offers delicious, comfy food the tastebuds crave. read more
