Play Pokies at Hotel Monier in Darra

Great menu choice for our Coeliac family members, including a couple of desserts. Vegetarian options are interesting and tasty. The steaks are always great. Fish dishes are also great. Good service. Nice atmosphere. Quite noisy inside, but lovely outdoor dining areas available. One of our favourite dining places!

I'm a regular here and always find myself ducking in, sometimes for a quick glass of wine, sometimes to meet friends, or just to escape my desk for a proper lunch. The service is consistently great, the food is fresh and fast, and the garlic bread is genuinely excellent (which we can all agree is crucial). Highly recommend.

We booked a table outside for a group of 16 specifically to watch the Matildas game. The venue knew we were coming to watch the football, so it was pretty frustrating to arrive and be told they couldn't put the sound on for the game. Instead we had to sit there listening to background music while trying to watch a big match.

It completely killed the atmosphere. If people are coming to watch a game, especially something like the Matildas, the sound is part of the whole experience.

What makes it worse is the outdoor area has clearly been renovated and set up as a viewing space with screens. If you are going to promote it as a place to watch sport, then not being able to play the game audio makes no sense.

Overall the venue itself is decent, but this was a disappointing experience for a group booking that was organised around watching the football. If the sound can't be used, that should be made clear before people book.

Halfway through the game another staff member came over and managed to turn the sound on with a simple click on an iPad. This was after we had already been told earlier by another staff member that it wasn't possible. That made the situation even more frustrating as it clearly could have been done from the start.

Called in here to have dinner after we messed up with measurements for a job.
Choose hotel Monier as we\'ve been before and we\'re aware they were great.
Had an extensive menu with many choices and lots of gluten free choices. If you can\'t find something on their menu, you must be too fussy.
It was late when we arrived and dint have you wait long to get served or our meals.
Recommend you check it out.

Gluten free options galore. The staff were fantastic. They hustled, cleaned, smiled, and worked. The place was busy, but still calm and relaxed. There were so many gluten free options, we took so long to even order. Food was hot, not overly long in wait time, good portions. Can't fault it.
