It is unbelievable that my first and also the last visit of this hotel was over 30 years ago. It was my first buffet dinner in Brisbane. Time is flying. I re-visited it for Sunday lunch for its first review of mine.
It was a busy lunch and service seemed to be chaotic but it settled down after more causal staff came back for work.
Ordered a risotto with chicken and mushroom and a share broad. Even though it was full house, kitchen’s production rate was good. It did not take a long time to have our dishes on the table.
Risotto was a let down with too much sauce that made the risotto sounded like a Chinese congee. If the chef can reduce the amount of onions in the risotto, it’s taste will not all cover by the onion. On the other hand, CP of share broad is good with duck spring rolls, prawn twisters, cheese sticks, calamari and bbq pork ribs. Love the prawn twisters and the spring rolls but the rest is just average.
Overall experience is alright and not as impressive as the buffet that I had here long time ago.

It is really lovely that Mr and myself get to go for dinner dates almost weekly now since the in-laws are able to look after Grace. That also means visiting more restaurants! As Grace has an early bed time around 7pm, we had to have dinner around 5 pm (ya, it is pretty early..) but we do not mind. 😀 For starters, we tried their Newmarket Calamari ($15). It came with garden salad and garlic aioli. The calamari was tasty and tender. We certainly wished there were more pieces on the plate.

Great food and service! Value for money. Highly recommend as a venue for lunch and dinner. Only recommendation is that they need to get cooking their steaks correct - but the red wine jus sauce was the best I've tasted.

Mid week dinner with a group of friends. Service was friendly without being over the top. Large menu choice including the chain-pub Graziers steak range. Our group had a variety of dishes and most were well received. Steaks were a little underdone however. Was about 10 mins between the first plate and last plate coming out though, which was a bit disappointing. I had the FOD - barramundi which was nice but nothing spectacular. Good size orations and fairly standard pub prices (approx $30/main). A decent meal which we would return for.

I'm a little shocked at all the negative reviews previously posted. I recently dined here last week for a casual lunch with a friend and found the food to be great and fantastic value. They have a number of lunch specials to choose from. The staff were friendly and since I enjoyed it so much I returned on the Saturday night with my partner for dinner. The restaurant was busy and the whole pub had a really nice atmosphere. We shared a bruschetta and I ordered the lamb and my partner a steak. The meals were delicious, the portions are a good size and both were cooked to our liking (mine medium and his rare). Overall, I think this is a great pub in the suburbs and I can see why it draws a great crowd on the weekends. Will definitely return soon.

Not being from the Northside I found myself wandering into this awesome place. WOW! I am well impressed with the food and the friendly service. Kids welcomed and hipsters too. Will definitely be back for their steaks!

Went there for dinner with friends and we all had a great time. Nice atmosphere and good food presentation, my steak was cooked to perfection which is something you don't always get with pub food. Staff were friendly and very attentive. Will definitely be going back in the near future!!

Restaurant I find is a bit pricey, the bar menu is well priced and still a large serve. Great live entertainment and always friendly staff.

Average Service-Good Value Meals (if you're willing to wait). My partner and I have been twice now. Each time the bar staff are friendly and food has been superb!
Lacking greatly in the floor service dept though. We, on both occasions, had to get up before, during and after our meals for drinks.
Staff seemed to gather at the kitchen counter hot lights and chat amongst themselves.
I was put off a bit, as a fellow patron on the table beside me was upset he was missing something in his meal which was on the menu-the waitress stormed to the counter, snatched up a menu and shoved it in his face pointing at what he had ordered. He at no time was rude to her and had simply misread the menu, she then snatched it out of his hands and swiftly walked up to where the other members of staff were 'hanging out' and proceeded to tell them about her 'stupid' customer who 'couldn't read'.
Very off putting.
Meals are as I said-great value. Quality, large 'pub meals'. But be prepared to wait.

Same but different. The menu is a little over priced for the quality of the food
If you want to eat here on the cheap - go on a weekday for lunch -
I have had the fish + chips, the salad is tasty...
The steaks are good...my partner says
I have asked for each time i go there for a 'lemon, Lime and soda water' and they can't seem to get it right -
I have had lemon, bitters + soda
Lime + soda
lemon + soda...
It has a nice atmosphere and the wait staff are friendly too

There is something for everyone on their menu. The specials are worth a look and try. The prices are reasonable and the tables are not crammed in. The staff is young but they are very able and friendly and definitely deliver on service and friendliness. The food was also great.

Food was yummy, took quiet awhile to get our drinks 20 minutes, that was a bit frustrating, especially when we could see them sitting on the bar. I would have picked them up myself but decided carrying them wasnt an option. When we asked if we could have our drinks the waitress answered yer yer yer. I was a bit stunned to be honest. I hope staff out with covid was the culprit for the slow drinks service. Ill see what happens next time Im at the Newmarket pub.

We needed an easy and satisfying dinner after a full day of flood clean up. We were so pleased with our food and the service tonight! We had our two boys with us, who both loved their kids meals. We were happy with the value - the meals were big and there was a drink and dessert included. We were also really happy with our adults’ meals. The veal schnitzel was a standout. The biggest win was the service. All the staff were friendly, helpful and kind to us and our kids. Exactly what we needed after a tough couple of days! Thank you!

We had our daughters first birthday here yesterday. Ara and the team did such a fantastic job at decorating and making sure everything was perfect. Drinks were great and food was even better. Thank you so so much for helping us celebrate our girls birthday! We will be back soon!

We went to the bar area where you can get the same food as in the dining area. Bar area is less noisy, food and drinks came quickly, and we enjoyed our stay. It's popular over lunch time during the weekends. We have gone there a few times and like the place.

We had to make very last minute plans with a fairly large group (15). Weren’t able to get a reservation in the bistro as it was booked but they still found room close by for us. When people left the bistro the staff allowed us to move to a table down there. They were extremely accommodating and I am so thankful. Everyone went above and beyond and therefore I can not fault the service and the food was delicious. When we moved to the bar, Greg looked after us as well and made our night better. He even took group photos for us. Thank you Newmarket and the team there this night. Very appreciative.

Great place for dinner or drinks or both, whether for two, a group or a party. Good variety of food to choose from. Heaters on the deck to keep one warm on a cold chilly night. Staff were friendly and helpful.
