It's a 50/50 chance your order will be wrong or missing items. Unfortunately half of the staff have…read morevery poor English skills and are almost inaudible. When they take your order, don't expect any interaction, eye contact or anything above a dull mumble or grunt. You have to watch every single item they enter into the order and talk very slowly. You have to triple check everything. Dont even bother going there when it's busy or noisy, you are guaranteed to get nothing like what you ordered. The food is so good that we keep going back but eventually I'm going to get sick of wasting money on things that have been made wrong.

I had passed it by the last time I was down this way, but since I had a bit more time on my hands, and also because I hadn't actually had a beer here either, I thought that it might be worth checking out. Well, that turned out to be the case that it was worth checking out, particularly with them having a nice range of beers, and also some rather friendly staff. While it wasn't one of the best places I have been to, it was still quite a nice place to visit.

I found this place on Yelp and had to wait a bit for them to open, so I grabbed a coffee nearby and sat on a bench, enjoying the nice weather. Once they opened, I was the first customer of the day. They have an extensive menu, but the tacos sounded great, so I ordered two. These were exceptional. Not only were they LARGE, but the toppings were full of flavors and textures that accompanied the fresh and fried-perfectly piece of fish on each taco. They were so big that I probably only needed one, but I happily finished two. Solid place and friendly service.

Our order came out in under 10 minutes. Then we found a shaded spot to sit near the beach. The fish bites were amazing! So juicy, flavorful, flaky and perfectly seasoned. The fisherman's basket was filled with so many tasty items. It was my first time trying a potato scallop and I really enjoyed it. The prawn cutlet, calamari and crab stick were all very good. Some of the freshest seafood with beautiful views all around. You can't go wrong!

Still long lines with happy people. Still only two tables and 99 % takeaway. Just as our last five visits we were lucky enough to grab a table!!! We ordered basically the same as we have on previous visits. Might have ordered one or two more shrimp! We had too much food this time around. We managed to eat all 9 prawns....they were really large...butterflied and crumbed. We also ordered the small chips. Thank goodness, we had too much food. The wait was not too long especially depending on how long the line was. Food always arrives piping hot. The guys that work here are slways helpful and friendly. Recommend picking up some great, reasonably priced seafood and taking to the beach for a nice meal. Will definitely return again this morning nth and hopefully again in January 2025!

The Belrose Hotel. The Belrose Hotel. The Belrose Hotel. Must remember that it's now called the…read moreBelrose Hotel. But it's hard. Having gone to the President (or Presso) for netball dinners and trivia nights for, say, my whole life, it's hard to make the transition into this snazzy new "Belrose Hotel" that's popped up in my suburb. I'm not the only one; I have yet to meet another Belrose-dweller of my vintage who has gotten with the times and called it by its name. But anyway. The Presso of my childhood has been bought, renamed and renovated. Very much to its advantage; what was before a dingy bar/bistro is now a big, bright space that you'd be happy to take your kids to for dinner. As are all similar hotels in the suburbs, it's cheap eats and drinks. Often, my mailbox is filled with coupons offering a "BUY ONE MEAL, GET ONE FREE". Not bad, Belrose, not bad. The service is good; quick and cheerful on both the food and drinks. The drinks are all the standard choices at reasonable prices, but the food is average pub grub. The problems faced by the President, however, are now faced by the Belrose Hotel. How to attract a cool crowd? The only people who really go there with much frequency are those that are quietly called alcoholics behind their backs, and very young families. Occasionally, a sporting match or trivia night will pull a crowd together, but it's generally limited by its location. Young people would probably like to pre-drink at those prices; but where to afterwards? The Bowling Club?

Went there on a Saturday for lunch with a couple of friends…read more Service was excellent from the young Scottish waiter and Asian waitress - couldn't fault their enthusiasm or service skills. Food was excellent - oysters that were large and creamy and fish perfectly cooked. It's a pretty simple menu actually, but it works. If you don't like fish/seafood this is not the place for you, but if you do then I can highly recommend it. However, oysters are expensive. About $3.80 each. Which means if you want a dozen as an entree it blows the price out quite a bit, but, minimum to order is 4 so you can keep the price down by ordering less. Still, a nice casual atmosphere and a good place to go for a lazy Sunday lunch featuring fresh and well-cooked seafood dishes with good service.
