We went out with two very elderly neighbours and they shared a meal as it was so large. The fish chips was just perfect and so tasty. The chips were large and chunky a little like wedges but lightly fried. The salad was very fresh. The wine and beer was at hotel prices so quite reasonable. There was definitely different areas of the hotel for intimate couples, for the gambling rollers , lunchtime eaters and the bar flies. The service was excellent. The waitress kept checking if she could help with anything. She was most attentive. Parking can be found within the block as there is a large council parking area nearby. Overall a very pleasant and quiet lunch.

The atmosphere is just the big winner! Can't wait until it's fully renovated! This place is definitely going to be my new local!

The Garden Tap is an informal, small bar/pub food type place while The Cook's Garden is a fairly swanky (and very good) restaurant. We managed to leave the kids at home and go out for our wedding anniversary (19 years, thanks for asking). We had a booking at The Cook's Garden next door but stopped in here for a quick drink before dinner. We were very tempted to stay here instead. This is a small bar in the suburbs, so already a rarity. It's relaxed and casual. It's also not tragically hipster, which is a real rarity for a small bar. The drink selection is good (but not huge) with some nice craft beers and ciders. The food looks amazing though. Superb looking burgers. Amazing looking steaks. We very nearly cancelled our booking next door and ate here instead. We didn't though. We had a very nice meal next door and will have to eat (rather than just look at) the food next time. It's kid friendly so the next time we feel like taking the family out for the night we may well go here.

Granted, it was the middle of the afternoon, so I wouldn't have expected the messy drunks to turn up in any case. The bartenders were really friendly and accommodating, flashing smiles all around, which always makes customers feel better. Their cider, by the way, is the most delicious thing I've tasted in a while. It tastes almost like really strong sparkling apple juice, and is no less intoxicating for its deliciousness, not to worry. They have two well-maintained pool tables, the cues are unbroken and unblemished (which is a rarity in pubs, I've noticed), and they don't have any balls missing! Another rarity. The premises is really clean and well-kept, as well as being air-conditioned (though not too cold.. too cold defeats the purpose a bit, doesn't it) to perfection. I like it, I would go here again for a drink if I'm in the area.

The recently refurbished establishment isn't the type of place you would want to spend all day in, but it has its charms, and in my opinion, is a lot better than some of the other pubs around Concord (but then again, that isn't saying much!). Facilities offered at Hotel Concord include: * TAB * Bottle-shop * Accommodation- rooms start from $60 for a single room, up to $160 for the family room (four single beds, one sofa bed). * Reasonably priced bistro meals (the $11 Big Beef Burger is pretty good). * Fox and Sky channels * Juke box * Public phone (how rare are those nowadays?) * EFTPOS facilities ($20 minimum) and an A.T.M. * Hotel shuttle boat offering transport between Cabarita and Circular Quay. * Wednesday Night Trivia from 7pm onwards. * Thursday Night Poker from 5pm-9pm. $2000 prize money. * Pokies

After looking at the menu on their website, we decided to try the Balgownie over a couple of other local eateries. At 6:30 on a Friday night, the place was busy which is always a good sign for a locals place. They had already sold out of the lamb shanks (a disappointment but that's how it goes) so I couldn't get that. My wife and mother split the $25 Schnitzel Boscaiola and had some left over. It was delicious and the sauce was fantastic. 1 daughter had the kid's spaghetti bolognese and the other had the kid's steak. Both are still raving about how good their meals were. I ordered the salt and pepper squid, which was the tastiest and freshest calamari I've had in years. I also had quite a bit of the salad and chips/fries left over. The food took a bit of time to come out, but that is likely a function of how busy the place was, and not necessarily a bad thing. Everything was super fresh and prepared perfectly. We spent AU$65 for dinner for 5, plus drinks that were ordered at the bar. There's a good chance we'll be back to the Balgownie.

The bar service and drinks are absolutely wonderful…read more As someone more accustomed to drinking spirits at home than in bars, I was a bit nervous on what I could order. I did as much research online as I could about the cocktails that were made here and whether or not I'd be able to have them (allergies and dietary restrictions). Initially I went in thinking that I'd only be able to order 2 types of drinks (a margarita and a mojito) since they were both rum-based, which at the moment is the only type of spirit I can consume without having to deal with angry red splotches on my face and arms (vodka and whiskey just don't agree with my skin I suppose). But the bartender asked me what types of alcohols I preferred, so that he could make me something that I could have without worrying about substituting ingredients from certain menu items. He was able to make me 2 Sailor Jerry rums over ice and I can't quite remember what the other ingredients were, but I'm pretty sure there was cinnamon, lemon/lime juice, and something else which tasted amazing!!! I then proceeded to try the mojito, which was SO beautifully prepared, and tasted just as great as it looked. Something about lime (and mint) in drinks makes my tastebuds extra happy. And I'm not one to usually like drinks with any sort of fizz in them, but this mojito was just, I've found myself saying it a lot in this review, beautiful. And lastly the margarita. I almost felt sad drinking out of the glass because the presentation seemed so intricate and aesthetically pleasing! Again, outstanding craftmanship by the bartender. The sips I took of the drink coupled with the salted rim of the glass were an adventure. I finished the entire drink in 15 minutes (while saving a sip for my partner to try) but at no point in that time was I able to figure out what that intriguing and delicious taste combination reminded me of. It tasted so familiar yet so new to me. Fantastic. Out of all four drinks I had, I can't say that any one of them is better than the other, but the Sailor Jerry mix definitely made it's way into one of my favorite drinks I've ever had in my life, no joke. I was a bit too tipsy to properly look for the bartender who made these drinks for me, but if I could've found him I'd like to thank and compliment him on his craftmanship!
