Customer Review

We went out for dinner tonight and it was amazing. we had beef snitty killpatric, beef snitty Hawaiian and my toddler had pasta Neapolitan. The size of the meals were just right and didn't leave feeling hungry at all. A huge shout out to Andrew who made us feel so welcome as a family. Thankyou. Highly recommended this business to anyone visiting and need a great quality family meal

Made the mistake today of ordering a beef schnitzel on $15 schnitzel day. It was absolute rubbish! The crumbs were falling off the "beef" when it was served, and what was left resembled more like carboard than meat, and I'm tipping cardboard would have been more palatable! The waitress said she would pass on my comments to the chef, and when she returned she explained that the new owners were experimenting with different products. No offer of a refund or replacement meal was forthcoming. Needless to say, our weekly visit to the Britannia Hotel will no longer occur, good luck to the new owners.

service abysmal. Freezing inside and the staff refused to close the door man at next table asked why and staff just kept saying it was a fire escape. ( when did fire escapes have to be open ?). Instead of explaining the reason, pointing to a sign and apologising maybe offering knee rug or putting the ineffective heaters on the staff decided to argue the point. I want to eat at a place where you are welcomed by staff who value your custom and comfort.

Food was good but no gluten free options at all unless you count salad and meat as lazy gluten free. No GF pasta (would be so easy) No GF pizza (again so easy) No GF fish (so easy) pretty disappointing in that department.

Went for lunch today.the front bar staff lady with purple hair and glasses yelled at an elderly man having issues with keno in front of the whole pub. She kept saying dont abuse me when she was the one yelling at him for everyone to hear!!!. She made a scene not him. Absolutely disgusting behaviour treating an elderly person like that. Let alone a customer. Ruined our lunch and we left without finishing it.

Soon as I walked in I thought to myself, "Oh it's a real pub," with genuine relief. I'm from outta town and I'm here to see a few concerts and the V8s (Day 4, November 2023). I like pubs with pokies and decent and uncomplicated food menus and all the normal beers. I don't gamble and I like a fancy beer. But, ya just gotta get into the real stuff sometimes. When I stay at Bathurst, we stay at The Railway. It's a real pub too. Thanks for the beer and barside chips, and thanks Angelica for complimenting my pink mullet, you're an angel.

I had a fantastic meal over here on Monday with my mates. I was served by Gabriel who helped us out and was very nice. The chicken schnitzel with the Kirkpatrick topping was spectacular! Service was very good and Gabriel really made us feel welcome.

After searching for the perfect place for my fiancé and I to hold our engagement party we finally found the Britannia Hotel. I can not speak highly enough of them, the functions manager was extremely patience and accomodating to me.

One of my guests has a few allergies and they organise - free of charge! - a seperate platter of food that he was able to eat, cooked separately from all other foods especially just for him! They were accommodating and allowed me to bring in my own deserts.

They moved all the furniture to exactly how I wanted it, allowed me to decorate the venue to execute my vision (although the new renovations were beautiful enough) and worked with my fiancé to get the photos of us up and running on the big screen!

The food was absolutely phenomenal with all of my guests making wonderful comments about it. It was very VERY affordable compared to other places and so much food was included.

The functions manager created our own personalised subsidised drinks menu for our guests and the bar staff were so friendly and fun throughout the night.

The team at Britannia made me feel very confident in their abilities to provide everything needed which was one less thing I had to worry about on my big night.

Another one of my guests lost her earring throughout the night, we made it aware to the staff and manager and they continued to keep their eye out for it days after the event and were able to find it for us. The staff go above and beyond to ensure guests are happy.

Once again I can't recommended the team at Britannia enough and my fiancé and I will DEFINITELY return.

A HUGE Thankyou to the staff and functions manager at the Britannia for a wonderful night, and a night my fiancé and I will certainly not forget.

The food was a bit pricey and not all that good, half of our table was happy and the other half wasn't. The staff seemed lovely though.

Fantastic Sports Bar Experience with Delicious Food and Great Specials!

I recently had the pleasure of visiting The Britannia Hotel's Sports Bar, and I must say, it was an absolute delight! As a local, I was thrilled to discover the recent refurbishment, which has transformed this place into a haven for sports enthusiasts and casual diners alike.

The atmosphere in the Sports Bar is energetic and inviting, making it the perfect spot to unwind and enjoy a casual lunch. The variety of meal specials available was impressive, catering to different tastes and preferences. Whether you're in the mood for a hearty burger, a refreshing salad, or some tasty finger foods, the menu has something for everyone.

One of the highlights of my visit was the selection of feature beers. The Britannia Hotel has an excellent assortment of beers, both local and international, ensuring that there's always something to satisfy your taste buds. Pairing my meal with one of their recommended beers was an absolute treat.

Sports enthusiasts will find themselves in paradise here. The large TV screens, broadcasting live sports matches on Foxtel HD, create an immersive viewing experience. The quality and clarity of the screens truly enhance the excitement of the game, and the sound system ensures that you don't miss a single moment of the action.

For those feeling lucky, the TAB facilities offer a chance to try your hand at betting while enjoying the vibrant ambiance. Additionally, the availability of SA Lotteries facilities until late is a convenient perk, adding an extra element of entertainment to your visit.

Let's not forget about the Happy Hour! From 4pm to 6pm, Monday to Saturday (excluding public holidays), The Britannia Hotel offers an incredible Happy Hour with fantastic drink specials. It's the perfect time to relax with friends, enjoy a refreshing beverage, and soak in the lively atmosphere.

Overall, my experience at The Britannia Hotel's Sports Bar was exceptional. The friendly staff, delicious food, great specials, and fantastic sports viewing options make it a must-visit for locals and visitors alike. I highly recommend stopping by for a memorable dining and sports experience.

I hope you read reviews?! Your food is ok, but not great. Prices are very reasonable and service is outstanding. Bar staff are courteous and welcoming. However the schnitzel is a little dry and the mushroom gravy is small and has like 4 slices of mushroom. With a few changes it could be amazing. The salad dressing is top notch. I wish you all the best. Local resident.

the pub has gone downhill ever since the changeover of management. had a function there, first of all no function manager to speak to. no one ever asked when we wanted the food to come out until 5 minutes until the anticipated time!!!! i would not waste your time - the staff especially the venue manager have no idea what there doing!!!!!! got $100+ worth of food refunded and there were not enough staff working that night to serve us drinks well maybe they was but there were sitting down in the back room doing nothing!!! won't be coming back

Function team was really disappointing for my daughters 21st. No communication, lazy service, terrible manner.

Appetiser platters arriving after mains. Booked them 2 weeks beforehand so no excuse to not get them out in time. Very embarrassing for us as hosts and no apology. $200 spent on room hire to have to carry bottles of wine, bottles of water and glasses to the function area ourselves while the staff stood around chatting to each other.

Older staff member from the restaurant was lovely, room was nice and the food was also very tasty. I hope that the function staff get their act together and polish some customer skills as we wouldn't recommend a function there to anyone. Im sure a normal meal there would be lovely, just disappointed in the function team.

Had a quick lunch here had 30 minutes to spare. Not busy on a Mon but was served quickly but not particularly friendly . Had a great glass of wine and tasty aranci balls and was out in time.2nd visit. Too early for lunch but had a great glass of wine service with a smile.

Extremely DISAPPOINTING!! We are Perth residents who come to Adelaide each year for the Adelaide 500 and for 23 years we have booked ahead and enjoyed lunch at The Britannia. Until 2022. Our 11am and 1130am bookings were accepted and written in the hotel diary but when we arrived we were advised lunch doesn't start until 12noon. The following days we were refused lunch service by the manager. During the week following, Damien the Chef called to offer a full and unconditional apology and expressed empathy in regard to the poor service we received. Food is consistently good at this venue and we hope the issues that arose this year will be ironed out by the time we return in 2023.

This place used to be open until 5 a.m. most nights and other nights 4 a.m. where is these days now it's only open until 2 a.m. at the latest some nights and other nights only open until just 10 p.m.
The amount of Gaming machines and overall facilities have decreased by 50% minimum without any figure of exaggeration and seemingly so have the staff costs because the staff used to be much better too!
The owners keep all promotional memorabilia intended for customers for themselves and then let the staff on roster take their pick and whatever is left over if there is anything left over of course is offered to the customers unlike any other venue where without Greek ownership the customer is a given First Choice and rightfully so that's who the promotional gear is for the ones spending the money not the people making the money the most!

My family has taken me yesterday to the Britannia for Lunch - Fathers-day. The Restaurant area is clean and modern and even the outside sitting area was nice and warm, but this is where it ends for me.
Customer Service; don't expect too much. The meals get delivered and cleared up - preferably after the customer has left (as in our case). Don't expect anyone to follow up on drinks, checks if everything is alright.
Food Beef Burger: everything (bun, bacon, egg, etc.) was pretty much what you expect from a Burger, but the Beef Burger was simply uneatable; too salty, overcooked, hard like cardboard - difficult to cut with a knife, defiantly not fresh beef mince.
It's no surprise that the place was not well visited, I myself will not be back.

Lovely and very cheap seniors lunch. $15.00 and included a small warm roll, small cake and tea or coffee. Just the ticket for a good lunch out.

I knew it was going to be an interesting experience when I walked in and tripped over one of the floor tiles that was sticking up with just a "cleaning" sign placed a few tiles over.

Menu looked like it was done in Microsoft word with half the option not on it. No drinks menu at all.
No cocktails were available (not that there was a menu for it anyway) because they didn't have enough drinks in stock apparently.

Garlic bread was great,
The bolognese had a lot of chili in it to the point my partner couldn't eat it after one bite.
So ordered 3 deserts instead only for the staff to tell us 10 minutes later they had none in stock, got a refund for the desert and went to Macca's on the way home.

Mitchell is the ultimate goat, fast service at last minute. Super friendly legend. Recommended a wine which was so good I bought more for the way home. Will return just for more time with Mitchell in the future.

I came in shortly before the kitchen closed, and the absolute legend that is Mitchell happily wiggled my friend and I to be able to get some parmies with his coworkers approval.
Dude was super charming, all round good guy, will happily come back again for another parmy sometime, the place had a good atmosphere. Guy is carrying the place on his back, good egg that one ?

Very good menu with a variety of choices, though not extensive. The Rump Steak was tender and tasty. Friendly service. Plenty of room around the tables. Chairs are a bit hard, though.

Appalling service - waited 5 minutes to even be served (in the empty pub) and when our drinks were ordered the barmaid took a call. The call was put on speaker and she proceeded to fumble about with glasses and Gin using one hand (which for good bar staff is easily done). Still waiting for our drinks she went to assist a guard collecting money, talked to the person on speaker phone and left us standing like shags on a rock. I did enjoy the phone call though, I learnt that management are trying to understand why sales are down ....needless to say after 15 minutes we left thirsty. #funtimes

Lovely food and friendly staff but parking is impossible otherwise I wouldu2019ve given 5 stars. The white wine (shuttlebrooke or something) I had with the steak special was very dry felt like it took all the moisture from my mouth but at least the food was incredible and thatu2019s the main thing.
