We popped in her for a drink and a light meal after the movies. It's the kind of pub that has a TAB attached so I wasn't expecting much but was pleasantly surprised. The wine was only $6 a glass and was really good. Our chicken and bacon pizza was very tasty and the service was fast. We sat outside in the beer garden which was really quite nice.
I've been for lunch several times in the past few months. It's really great pub food and they have specials every night. It's very affordable and you just get non-fancy well cooked meals - I often have the steak with Garlic Prawns....PLUS they always feature a $7 or $8 pint which is a bonus. I paid $13.50 for a pint last week at The Oxford - ? There are reviews about the service, but hey, you're going for a pub meal, what do you expect? Grab a beer and two while you wait...perfect!! Well Done The Belmont Tavern, happy local!
Hard to fault, Efficient, unobtrusive, pleasant and fast service, generous servings of good quality lunchtime fare with seniors discounts menu midweek. Recommended.
Really great place to catch up with friends. We were group of 8 people and at end of the night we all were very happy. We will be back for sure.
Came here for a weekday lunch. Had the Boston burger and was very impressed. Wagyu beef burger meat was delicious with a nice sweet brioche bun. Food was slow but $7.50 pints of Carlton Draught whilst waiting made up for that. Would def be back.
I've lived in the area for 4 years and usually eat here about once a month. We keep going back because the specials are great, and they do really tasty pub food. The service is always really friendly - they are a lovely bunch of guys and girls - but they lack organisation. They seem to have insufficient staff for the amount of tables, we always wait a long time for service. The kitchen is also very slow. But at the end of the day it's our local pub, we enjoy the food, we enjoy having a few drinks and as long as you aren't desperately starving it's not the end of the world having to wait a while for dinner.
Yes I came here having seen the horrendous reviews! Really nothing wrong with the place. It's big, family friendly, indoor and outdoor seating, lots of parking, week night specials. As its big, there can be a wait for food. We ordered sweet potato chips on arrival. Had to chase up a few times but boy were they good. Everyone was very happy with their main, including myself with the $17 steak (and I usually only eat eye fillet!). Personally I don't frequent taverns but I would come back if invited.
Average !. Went in a party of 8 for Saturday dinner. Service was ok, menu good and the overall experience was fine. However, 4 of us had steak which were not cooked as asked. Mine should have been medium rare but was over medium. Another was virtually raw.
Will give it another try in the future but wont order steak !
Tries hard, gets it mostly right, could improve.. The fish & chips, steak sandwich, salads were all good. The other meals were not impressive due to small serve size, they are trying to make it quality but a "roast special" should be filling even if aiming for gourmet. The spaghetti bol was ok but not huge. One of our party had a steak and did not enjoy it for the price. None of the meals are cheap so we expected more food. It is rare that we leave a restaurant hungry as we are not big eaters.
The staff were ok, the waitresses were working hard. The food came out reasonably promptly. We had a table for 13 - 8 of us enjoyed the food, 5 of us didn't.
There were no problems with the room temperature as other reviewers mention, it was just right.
Pleasantly Surprised. We have been talking about going here for ages as a pre movie meal and finally did on Sat night - It was much brighter and newer than I was expecting and our meals were excellent.
I can understand about people’s comments about slow, I didn't think the staff were slow but not enough of them. The ones I saw were constantly busy and doing their best - they were very polite and obliging when we wanted to change the menu.
We had the steak with pepper sauce and the chicken parmie and I would go back again
I though it was excellent value for money in comfortable surrounds.
I went here for dinner With.... I went here for dinner
With my 6 year old the meals were very good beautiful grilled fish chips and salad, my daughter ate all her fish first(amazing). I had the fetta mushrooms an mash fully of flavor and a great vegi option. Hubby had lamb rack, no complaints from him, but..... Service was sooo slow, lots of others in in the room looking for some one to help them. Hope slow service is a one off, as it's my local so will
go back again.
Service was great and the food was good pub food. Only let down was the wait time kitchen is slow and needs to speed up.
Great Local.. I go here once a week because it's close to where I live and it does a great, no fuss, steak sandwich on the lunch menu. And if you turn up for dinner and ask nicely, they will make it for you then too. And at $20 a pop, I just love it. Not had much else off the menu, except the lamb koftas with salad which were good. Service in restaurant has always been friendly, quick and helpful. Not too sure re: bar staff are as hubby always gets the drinks in - but I've never noticed him MIA so must be fast enough. Nice beer garden, live music, clean and simple local pub/bistro. Keep it up.
