Thought we would try this place on a Saturday night. Ordered lamp rump with mash potatoes and vegetables being a cold winter night. The 200g lamb rump was sufficient, plenty of vegetables and large portion of tasty mash potato. Overall huge serve and it was delicious. Finished off with Apple Crumble dessert, again very good but ended being bloated. I would come back without hesitation. Menu range is very good.

Bar attendant didn't know hot to make a basic cocktail - a FRUIT TINGLE and poured raspberry at the bottom? I used to work in a pub and it's blue curacaco and vodka then lemonade and then the raspberry ontop. I didn't see her even put the vodka in and asked if it was in yet watched her make the entire thing and not put it in but she answered saying it was put in. Lemon also doesn't belong in a fruit tingle. I tried to tell her how to make it, in a non condescending way and she obviously took it to heart and was upset afterwards due to her body language of crossing her arms and look of disgust as if I'd just asked for her first born child. I'm not naming and shaming as I'm no dog but if managers see this, she was working Thursday 4th of April 7:30pm and reading instructions that may not have been clear on how to make this particular simple cocktail.

The staff were friendly and helpful. The atmosphere was great, family friendly and fun filled. And the food was First class for a pub menu. Deliciously prepared with good sized portions and quality ingredients. My compliments to the chef! Any Day. I recommend Cramers hotel happily to anyone with 5 big gold stars! Added bonus, fully wheelchair accessible.

Not one of Woolworths' better offerings.
Plenty of locals were being hypnotised by the pokies but our late lunch saw an empty dining room.
Our meals were as much as can be expected but the "Gravy" on the Roast of the Day was appalling: straight out of the packet/can.
The staff were great but could we run to a Chef rather than a short-order Cook in the kitchen, considering the fortune the pokies raise?

I came and sat in the bistro section, midday on a Thursday.
I ordered the rump with chips and salad. I ordered rare (just over for my personal taste) with peppercorn gravy.
The peppercorn gravy was severely lacking peppercorns but aside from that worth the money!
Side note: Better to visit early, as a family, as the security approach your table and ask you to leave just before 10 pm!

Amazing chicken parma as usual, they currently have a special for lunch and dinner where u get a Parmalat and a pot for $17.the atmosphere is really good to hang out with friends and watch sports in their sports bar section. Looking forward to my next visit.

It's Ok. Went because it has a small inside playground which the kids wanted. My parma would have been really good if the Napoli sauce wasn't put on cold!

First time dining out at a bistro on my own
This place felt safe and inviting, I noticed other females doing the same.
I thought the menu was a bit overpriced for lunch. I had an entree sized salt and pepper squid which was filling and the batter was delicious, although a little bit rubbery. The presentation was also lovely, with a nice aioli spread and small salad and it took about 8 minutes.
Would order again
The real hero was the barman -G? He provided me with a phone charger, a port and severed food and drinks to about 9 tables with great timing and a smile :) and was the only one on the floor during lunch hour.
I'm sure he had other duties as the gaming room was packed and I only saw one other worker
Overall, a lovely establishment

Love this little bistro. Delicious food, awesome full of different activities playground. Servers were wonderful and sensible with any changes we needed to make. Will definitely be back. (One point is all the kids kept running to "stop" sign as there was a child on the sign. It was like a big kid invite sign not a prevention.)

First and only time I visited staff allowed me and my group to order even though it was close to the bistro closing until dinner. The young bistro attendant who took orders was so mannered and lovely, the atmosphere was calm, quiet as it would be at the time of the day. Would definitely visit again in the the future.

Ordered grilled fish and veggies. Took 45 minutes. Small portion. Fish was burnt and dry. Really bad food. Definitely don't recommend this place.

An update from my review yesterday. The manager attended to my issue pretty much straight after my review. Having bad experiences is one thing but having management apologise and respond to you is going above and beyond. Very impressed! Thank you.

Came in and got bounced from the bar to the indoor dining area because it felt like the manager had told the lady at the bar not to sell the Parma special. She looked very stressed and uncomfortable. I was there just over 30mins before close, chips weren't hot and the Parma felt rushed or like it wasn't thawed out properly before cooking. Gentleman working at the other dining area was very helpful

Ordered a beer on tap. The girl who served me was really nice. I said to the girl that the beer tasted flat. She got the manager (after I said, I wanted a different beer on tap). Not quite sure why that was necessary. I told the same thing to the manager. Who then gave me a lecture of how the keg was changed at '2pm'. After I explained I wanted something different. He said "there is nothing wrong with it" and just walked away, no resolution. He was very condescending & borderline smart arse. Came across very passive aggressive. Very poor management skills.

Went to check out the regular Sunday Poker & glad I did. Didn't play myself but 2 mates did - thanks to the regulars who were patient & friendly. I think the organiser's name was Shane.

Ok firstly POONAH the Indian lady working the cashier Is the most rudest arrogant lady I have ever come across. Not only did her attitude stink but she also stunk. Didn't want to work as the servers were down. People like POONAH should not be allowed to work in the gaming industry. SHE NEEDS TO BE FIRED!

I don't usually leave negative reviews, but tonight was just awful! Keep in mind it wasn't a super busy night by the looks of things.
We ordered through me&U as instructed by the staff, despite 3 staff in the bar drinks took over 30 minutes to be prepared and we're not correct. Our long land ice teas were not drinkable (they did replace them with a beer).
Some of our meals were beautiful, 3 of our steaks were cooked to perfection but the other two were medium to well, when we ordered medium rare.
Worst of all no apology for the drink wait or the poor service.

We went for UFC live and oredered some food. Steak sandwich 🥪 was good. Calamari was rubbery and I find that it doesn'ttaste much. Food wasn't that warm, maybe from the cold plate and Melbourne weather. Chips weren't great but edible. We like potato wedges more than chips.

I asked if I can have wedges on my main instead of chips but staff said no. She said I'm afraid the kitchen won't do it because of the price. She could've checked for me though. But I didn't say anything as she didn't offer to check with the kitchen.

I understand that it's Mother's day and they're busy but we ordered before diner starts to get busy. Anyway, not a big deal though. I ate some chips but didn't finish them. Salad was average, not cruncy fresh but good enough.

Not bad for a pub/hotel food. Big room, clean toilets and a lot of parking space.

Food is below average, good variety of games though. Avoid the steak, they never get it right, unseasoned and always way overcooked. The place is very gambling focused, wish they would put as much into their food.

Your typical local hotel/pub place. Food isn't too bad. Have great play area for kids. I am very much addicted to the arcade games here. The dessert is the only disappointing thing here. Overall I think it's worthwhile visiting and the food is pretty substantial. Come here maybe one a month with the kids.
