Great views from the upstairs balcony. Nice atmosphere music in the background and a singer on the night. friendly staff. Forgot to take photos if the meals. But they were good. Huge range of craft and imported beers.
The missus and I love going to Yard Bird. The brisket is fantastic, the ribs and chicken are very good but could do with more sauce, onion rings are out of this world, but the Nantucket was a bit disappointing however. The staff are excellent and nothing is too hard for them and they do the best Black Russian cocktail
I like yard bird I'm happy with the ribs (not enough sauce) tender and good, brisket was good, sides are a bit sorry, no Mac n cheese, I would have liked mash potato, onion rings were overcooked, wings were good, saucy and hot, no desserts was a big let down, it's so easy to buy some brownies from a bakery heat one up add a scoop of ice cream and drizzle hot fudge on it, heck even McDonald's can do that.
A good way to start or end your day is to have at least one good meal. We had ours in Yard Bird while in Bendigo. We went there especially for Chicken wings and were served with hot tasty wings dipped in spicy gravy. it was bit different from the ones I have previously had. You have to dig in the mess to get the taste.
The prices and portions were good enough for two with a bucket of 12 wings and two glasses of beer.
The decor was American and they also have an outdoor seating which overlooks the Alexandra fountain and the Post office across the road. Its my kind of place to enjoy a relaxed Sunday Brunch with family or friends.
My American partner and I did a day trip up to Bendigo and stumbled upon this place. I had the crab cakes and he had the beef brisket. We both throughly enjoyed our meals. It was nice to have something that we couldn't get locally. Service was good. Had great heating so you could sit outside.
Interesting concept for dining in Bendigo. Had a bucket of 'shrimp', grits and chips. Others on our table had hotdogs and burgers. Pretty standard fare, nothing crazy amazing. Price was ok. Would be good on a spring/summer arvo for beers, burgers etc. Musician was playing when we were there, music was a touch loud so was hard to have a conversation. Could be amazing with a few tweaks to menu.
All good here, but I thought it was the Shamrock. Initially they were slow to take our order, others being served first ( pet hate ). But to be fair, they fitted us in. Enjoyed the food and wine.
Food was delicious, reasonable prices, nice view from the Balcony of The Shamrock Hotel and friendly staff.
