Place has changed since our last visit. Seating outside is comfy with nice street view.
Nice looking place inside and outside, pretty stylish, it was a good looking modern pub. I went on Monday 2 for 1 main meals. I had the Parmagiana & Chicken & Mushroom Carbonara. They were pretty much what I expected them to be. Nice size, standard fatty greasy oily pub grub. Taste was good enough, I pretty much knew what to expect so I wasn't disappointed.
I was told by a young barman on the South Bank that the West End was the place to go for a good venue, with NO humbug. From the moment I arrived, I was assisted with all questions. From staff and patrons. Dressed as a ringer I suspect they realized I wasn't a local. Met black fellas from home, the territory. Never a City pub I've visited over Australia any more social. Great afternoon, thanks.
This place has improved in recent times. Food has been excellent - the parmy's are great. Good wine selection too. Keep up the good work!!
Tasty parmy. Helpfully subsided by the degenerate gamblers downstairs!
bad service. disorganised. ended up walking out... disappointing
Went there almost every week. Different of offers for lunch and dinner on week days!
The Melbourne hotel, is a fantastic place to have a drink, or sit down and enjoy fantastic food. It's very clean, and the staff are very friendly. Fantastic spot.
Expensive drinks but food is good and very reasonably priced.
We held a wedding here at the weekend and it was brilliant, great location excellent food and good service. The pricing was affordable and food was plentiful. Staff were extra helpful ensuring everyone was having a good time. Highly recommend this for functions.
We heard great reviews, went there late because we're on the road for work but sadly kitchen was shut so we explored City and found so many dodgy places because all the good places were shut but just by chance after we gave up we found a fantastic Korean restaurant I think it was the journey Korean Restaurant, a late night restaurant, best food and service 5stars Can't wait to go back again!
Been a very long time since my last visit to West End. Had fantastic $12 lunch.. Had a win on the pokies. Staff were very friendly, meal was served quickly and very tasty. Well done Hotel West End... I had a great day.
We have become regulars. Spent most of October Fest here as they had (& always do), fantastic food and specials. My partner lived there in October, as he said he had the best venus scnitzell ever. He'd love this to be a permanent fixture on the menu!!! Great service, clean & tidy + fabulous food + specials. Just great!
Cut a long story short , Waited nearly an hour give or take 15mins for our food , very very genuine appologetic manager tells us our food order never made it to the kitchen and tells us our food is being prepared now , I was happy with the genuine appology but they went above and beyond , refunded our money and gave us free drinks on the house. Winner winner winning because the food was the Best pub food / restaurant food 5***** i have had in years, and not because i was starving and not because it was free but because it was Good . Highly recommend and you would be so lucky if they forgot ur order.
Like this bar, always got decent prices for food and drink
Not impressed with the lounge staffs attitude I was made feeli inferior. And I was so angry. She doesn't have peoples skills
We had our Christmas party here, great day and night, with some really yummy cocktails
Plenty of space during Covid times, cheap drinks and lovely staff. Good for a small-medium group catchup in a casual, no frills place.
Always good food and cold beer. Staff are awesome. Best pub food in the West End at a good price.
Used to be great with cheap lunch deals but don't go there anymore.
Bottomless Brunch great service and good vibes. Highly recommended for a Sunday session
This place use to be great service was slow and they removed the Surf n turf from the menu, won't be back.
Only dropped in for a quick drink. Nice fresh atmosphere about the place though.
The most amazing food, amazing service, going back for breakfast there now! Will come back here again.
Just had a tremendous meal. More importantly the service was friendly and well done.
I don't think I have ever met more friendlier staff. Lunch was cheap and great. Definitely recommend
Used to be much better on Friday night. No wine on Happy Hour list which is not good for people who do not drink beer. Tap wine $8.50 a 150ml glass is over the top!!! Bring back the Tacos!!!! and $5 wine. No food specials Friday??? Notice the crowds gone too.
Awesome venue for family dinners. Well priced, good service, pub fare
Meals were nice, and portion size good. They were super busy but meals came out fast.
Great lunch options at good prices. Be prepared for a wait as it is a popular spot and can have quite a lineup of orders. Fridays can be especially long.
Good for a coldie but I don't like the new renovation
Very relaxed atmosphere with great pub food. The fit out is modern and a much needed comfortable oasis in the desert of west end niche cafes.
I go here when I want a break from the West End 'scene'. It's an old-skool unpretentious pub with a very decent steak lunch and friendly, efficient service.
Went for dinner and a couple of drinks. There used to be posters up for meal specials througho the week but we were lucky enough to arrive on a 2 for 1 mains deal night. Meals were nicely presented and delicious. Staggered happy hour drink specials were good.
Was luvly place for sunday lunch and food was great
Nice bar although surprised to learn that you were not allowed high vis workwear and boots in there. Fully understand if someone was inconsiderate enough to wear dirty boots in there but don't alienate the many decent workman out there
Great food, very good service and beer is a good price. Recommend going here.
Really good deals and nice food. Relaxing place to be
the AV didn't work in the function room and replaced with their own music which was not suited to the party
Awesome vibe on their Jazz Club nights every 2nd Wednesday.. Great bands and atmosphere.
A great place for after work drinks or a great value mid week lunch deal.
Went there on last Saturday night and the place was empty.. we were there at 8pm for the footy so maybe it's a late night venue? Food was good, staff were cool and beers were a little expensive tho..
Great pub for lunch or dinner. Good specials through the week too.
The first visit was excellent during the parmi night with great service from Sam adding to the experience. This was going to be 5 stars but the second visit for the steak night was a let down by the order being incorrect and excuses made for the mistake without the order being corrected.
What a relief to find a pub that serves good well priced food with ice cold beer. Shouldn't be so difficult right? This pub gets it absolutely right. No pretensions. I'm definitely going again.
This has slowly become my weekly parmi place where their Wed $15 chicken parmigiana deal is unbeatable. Also check out their Mon-Fri dinner deals and happy hour drinks. Place to go for a mid-week parmi and beer.
Great place. Often our office Friday lunch option. Wished a bit better quality for the steaks on special. Not quantity, at least quality. The other specials tried are not bad though
Great services, good meals that were reasonably priced
Had a great reunion dinner in function room last night. Food was great, staff were excellent and accommodating and venue private and perfect for our needs. Thank you.
Friendly staff. but the food wasn't that great had a reheated leftover taste to it the best part was the packet mashpotato yumyum...not
Called in for a feed on a Sunday night and was treated to a generously sized Chicken Parmy as well a Beef & Guinness Pie with vegetables cooked to perfection. A great feed with a few coldies.
Wildflower Cafe (suspiciously not listed as a separate Google business) attached to this hotel makes quite possibly the worst coffee I've ever tasted. Sure it's $2 for a small, but it's not worth that. My fingers in this picture are indicating the amount of Roadhouse froth on the top of the almond cappuccino I ordered. I'm forcing it down, but I'm doing it out of spite. I'll go and pay double for a decent coffee at Cafe 63 next time.
Great lunch menu, good vibes. Not too busy and meals arrived in good time after ordering.
Great stage in the upstairs space. Quality entertainment. Affordable beer.
If you don't care about being surrounded by dudes going about with no masks then this is the place to be. Staff are all masked up but no one wears a mask when going from table to bar to toilet. If you fall asleep, you'll be chucked out, but you can walk around without a mask and they say nothin... go to the boundary hotel instead of you care about your health
Incredible experience here. Ordered food and within 15minutes it was there. Incredible food, friendly staff. Ordered 3 tiny bowls of garlic aioli and when it didn't arrive within 10minutes they gave a free jug of beer and made sure to give us a great experience of the rest of the night. Lovely place!
