Restaurant 91 - The garlic bread came out with the mains, kind of defeats the purpose of having it. The meat balls were like rocks and we could not eat them. The pork belly was not crispy whatsoever. My steak was good. The price of the kids meals are ridiculous, as with the garlic bread. Disappointed to be honest, not sure what's going on with the place. ..and why would you get rid of the outside playground?

We purchased the pork belly and Italian meatballs from the new menu recently. The pork belly was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside and the apple cider jus complimented the dish. The Italian meatballs were fresh and had nice flavours.
Presentation was wonderful. Highly recommend trying the new menu. Venue is great, prices reasonable.

Restaurant 91 - honestly quite bad, the service was nice and everyone was lovely but unfortunately the food was just quite awful. Firstly we waited over 30 minutes for one meal and one entree, The bacon wrapped chicken was extremely dry and was quite bland in flavour and for some reason the chips had the taste of cinnamon which was quite off putting. The two sliders were also quite bad unfortunately, they had a very strong flavour of something burnt, I couldn't tell if it was the meat or the Chipotle, but there was a very odd burning flavour that overwhelmed the sliders. Oddly though the chips that came with the sliders were nice and did not have a cinnamon flavour.

Wow! Didn't know this place existed until recently! It is MASSIVE! Very inviting atmosphere, a bunch of courts that are state of the art, eateries to choose from and more. We will be coming back to cheer on the Bendigo Braves and the awesomely friendly peeps who give up their time to make the kids smile. So very heartwarming xo

For a place families go the access for prams through doors and change table facilities are tricky to find. Do like the better acoustics on Court 1-3 compared to the others in the older part of the building

Beautiful basketball courts. Make sure you know which court you need to go to. There is a huge free car park available. Lots of toilets too. They have a bar / restaurant area. There is also a shop that sells cold drinks, coffee and hot chips.

Had dinner there. Great food. Didn't have to wait long. Good service.

The new main stadium is fantastic. Our VC team didn't get to use it. Hope to next time.
All the other courts are descent. Unfortunately the kiosk closed before the night games. I'd suggest they keep it open till 9pm.

The staff at Red Energy Arena, especially in the VIP section, are always a pleasure to deal with. The atmosphere is always electric regardless of the crowd size. A great experience and lots of fun for the kids.

Ok service some dishes could have been much better

Meals were lovely, great menus, and reasonable prices. Friendly staff, too.

My first visit to this arena - Bendicon being the reason. It is a big place in terms of building and surrounding fields stretch out from it.
One basketball court catered for the fun and frivolity of Bendicon. I saw other parts devoted to martial arts, a bistro and a cafe
Staff were all friendly and efficient.
It was a great day. Will be back again

Sensational stadium with seating around all 4 sides of the basketball court. Very spacious and well designed featuring a centre dome illuminated score board over the centre of the court with extra LED TV scoreboards/advertising around the walls. There is full bar/bistro facility within the complex offering hospitality and sports entertainment in a one-stop shop for a great night out. Bendigo's Red Energy Arena really sets the standard for basketball stadiums in Victoria.

I'm very happy with the food they are amazing it's just sad that public holidays surcharged it's like more than $10 on top of the price of the meals which is I'm not happy with it as I never encountered such as public holiday charged not a good deal

Went this weekend to watch the Netball and its a lovely stadium. However, there seemed to be a severe lack of parking. We (as well as lots of other people) had to park in the side of the road and walk about 400m to the entrance which is not ideal for some people. But the stadium itself was really nice

It's been a while since I've had a steak at the restaurant so I decided I'd take the plunge again yesterday. The steak was cooked to perfection, I asked for medium and it was a true medium, neither under nor over. It was very tender and easy on the old fangs. Unfortunately, due to the potato shortage there was no chips so I had the roast veges - and to my delight discovered I LOVE roast potato's with Garlic Butter (my sauce). Not as keen on the other "green" veges (I ate all the carrots), but I think that is personal taste rather than a reflection on the Chef, and it's the reason I knocked a star off (I'd have killed for some Cauliflower in cheesey white sauce -Mmmm) The staff are always a pleasure to speak to, too :)

Clean & tidy
Although they could disinfection machines more often
No Social Distancing AT ALL
Smokers room/outdoor area very small and when people out there .

If you want pokies it's great but not the food there were four of us and no one enjoyed there food I had a Christmas medley with roast veggies ONE roast potatoe really very sad and the pork was horrible

Always a great experience regardless which part of this facility you attend.
Bistro/restaurant is always AMAZING,food is delicious every time, never any issues, staff are all friendly and helpful and tolerant of all children nothing is a problem. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

Been here a few times for events, concerts and this time, for a first, to actually watch sport. Well, I played a game on my phone while my daughter watched the game of basketball. Those shoes squeak. Good venue.

We held my grandmother's 100th birthday at Red Energy and they were helpful from booking until the end of our day. Highly recommend.

We asked for extra chicken salt on our chips, the canteen lady said we need to charge you extra. First time in life experienced extra charge for salt on chips. 😝

Shared lunch with friends ,the food was,great lots to choose from, coffee amazing, cost was reasonable.
Plenty of parking,good access for the disabled, a big play ground for children fenced and visible from the restaurant.

What a fantastic venue - went to see Guy Sebastion along with 4000 others - ran very smoothly , food was good.

The food was nice and a really good place I wish I lived closer it was a great vibe I recommend it for others and it was a very close game and we had front row seats but there wasn't many people because of COVID so overall it was a cool experience

Great stadium, nice little pub in the stadium which is an awesome touch in my opinion, great place to bring the family whether you're a spectator or just want a nice outing with the family

I enjoyed our meal. The staff were very helpful.

Awesome! Great facilities and very professional umpires provided by the venue. Some of it is very new. The staff were very accommodating and helpful. Space for a range of different sports inside: netball, volleyball, basketball, badminton etc.

This place is a host with the most providing great entertainment with live shows, sporting events and catering for your every need of food and drink.
Also provides all wheelchair access

Friendly staff. Stadium is a big pkace & all indoors & comfortable. There is a Bistro next door to it. Handy! I saw the Wiggles Fruit Salad Show there. Great fun for kids & big kids. But, the Stadium @ the beginning gave the Aborigines 'Welcome to the Country' speech! I couldn't hear it properly because of all the audience noise. But I don't like it; because it sounds like the Aborigines are forcing their religion onto us! Something about the spirits & mother earth, I think? God has said in the Old Testament, we are NOT to believe in spirits, only HIM! I believe in Christianity & therefore, DON'T want anything to do with worshipping the earth/spirits! I want to try & find the Aborigine Speech, to see exactly what they say!

Adequate parking, a bit out of the way but close enough not to get lost, accoustics where awesome for the event we attended

Great stadium environment. Was here for a netball game. Loved the atmosphere in the stadium. Would come back again.
Lunch was fantastic.
Heaps of parking.
