The stand out dishes on our table would have easily been the bao buns (served DIY style with the buns, crispy pork, bean shoots and coriander deconstructed for you to mix as you please, along with hoisin sauce), the vegetable spring rolls (quite large, served with greens to add on top to your liking) and sand mullet (served whole to your table to carve - be careful of the bones). We finished out the evening sitting outside, drinking espresso martinis and enjoying the warm summers night. A great experience.

This place has certainly changed a lot since I was last here. The pub is nothing short of awesome,…read moreif the bar at the back is anything to go by. The staff were super friendly, and quite chatty, and the beer selection was absolutely amazing. In a way I'm glad that I decided to go and revisit all of the pubs that I have visited the last time I was up in Bendigo because honestly, they have changed heaps - especially this one.

This place has a sports bar, pokies and a nice little restaurant. Good selection on the menu. Very…read morelarge servings. They even cater for kids. Food was good and came out fast. Staff are friendly.

Well, if you like beer gardens then this place is definitely worth checking out because, well, it…read morehappens to be one huge beer garden. Well, not quite, because it is actually a small courtyard out the back of a coffee shop, so it is one of those places that if you don't know about it, you could quite easily miss it. However, as a bar it is pretty awesome, especially the range of craft beers that they have available.

The Wine Bank is exactly that - a wine bar set in an old bank (on view street). The building is…read moreimpressive both inside and out, with high ceilings and loads of wines. It appears that Wine Bank is targeted to two crowds - those who want to buy a bottle and go through the full list, and a very casual crowd who want to stop in for a cheap drink. Perhaps price sensitivity is an issue for the area, but the wines on pour were nothing special at all. The tacky paper menu and unimpressive by the glass list stop this from being a classy affair or place worth seeking out if you're a wine buff. I'm all for individual expression, but I think the place could really benefit from a work uniform or even just a dress code - another notch that really works against this being some place special. A good spot for a casual drink of sauvignon blanc or cheap champagne, but definitely not somewhere I would recommend to visitors unless you were settling in for a full bottle.

The thing that first caught my attention with this pub were the girls from a regional netball club…read morerunning around looking for clues for some treasure hunt and whoever had laid out these clues must have done a particularly good job with this place because the girls were absolutely stumped (though they didn't end up giving up and having a beer). It is quite a nice hotel though, with a small beer garden out the back, seating out the front, and a number of other areas which look quite comfortable. There was also an area that is underground, and sticking my nose down there I noticed that there were tables and seats there as well.

All I can say was that this place had an absolutely amazing service. Well, it was rather quiet when…read moreI passed through, but that probably was because it was in the afternoon, but still, this was definitely one of those places that I really did like, and it was certainly a place that I could spend some more time at. They had an awesome beer garden, and not only that, there were free lighters for people, no doubt because smokers tend to have a habit of losing lighters (namely because they get leant out and never returned). Sure, the beer selection wasn't too great, but it was still a pretty awesome place.

My husband and I had a lovely evening during Wednesday Steak Night! We both ordered the porterhouse…read moresteak which was well done and juicy along with mushroom gravy. My meal came with generous sides of crispy chips and fresh salad, while my husband opted for vegetables. The $29 deal also included the beer and soft drink. We shared a serving of calamari with tartare sauce, which tasted superb. The restaurant has a casual, friendly atmosphere with a charming rustic vibe. Overall, the service was a solid 10/10!

This is a pretty awesome bar, though that does have an awful lot to do with the beers that they…read morehave available here, and I must admit that it is really, really impressive. Actually, the fact that this place also happens to also be located down a side allyway is pretty awesome as well. I guess, in a lot of cases it is that inner-city bar atmosphere of this place that I absolutely love, though of course the beer selection is pretty amazing as well. This is definitely a place that I would recommend checking out.

I would suggest that this place is sort of a cross between a pub and a burger joint, but somebody…read moremight point out that that tends to be the case with most pubs anyway. Well, not quite because a pub burger and a burger joint burger tend to be vastly different, particularly since pub burgers tend to be much larger. Anyway, down stairs looks pretty much like your standard American Diner, while upstairs is more of a sportsbar, though a sports bar that actually has a bit of charm about it. Okay, while not a place I would put high on my lists, it still has some good things about it.

Guests were still sitting at tables when staff finally decided to clean up (8:30pm) and moved every on so they could set up for night club. They threw out drinks that were 1/2 full sitting beside personal belongs and guests still near by. Food 2 stars- medium rare steak was extremely well done. Others enjoyed their burgers. Bar and wait staff were not friendly. will never book a function at this venue again. However the lady on the food pass down stairs was friendly and helpful.
