What an enjoyable classy restaurant. All our meals were delicious. We waited a while for our mains but the wait was worth it. The service was great and we will certainly be back. I totally recommend the prawn and crab ravioli. Thanks Dovetails.

My mum and I enjoyed an AMAZING breakfast for my birthday yesterday morning (18.11.17). We received exceptional service from Georgia, she was very professional and attentive. Another lovely girl, who’s name I forgot to ask was also very professional and provided great service. We both had coffee and Eggs Benedict. The food was great and very generous portions. My only negative would be that I asked for hard poached eggs and they came out runny, but mums were firmer so we just swapped.. no biggy. All in all, we will definitely return 👍🏼

We actually took advantage of a coupon deal for Dovetails just to make sure it was worth the drive from Brisbane! Just loved the beautiful setting in the old refurbished building. The warmth of the rustic bricks & ambiance of the stoic old trees under which we sat for our Sunday breakfast was well worth the drive. The menu is basic, but food is delightfully fresh , of good local quality & well presented. My order was avocado nicely fanned with lots of greens, feta & cherry tomatoes. Coffee was rich, super strong & very smooth with great depth of flavor

Beautiful refurb and stunning deck overlooking a park with 100 yo trees. Nice enough menu friendly staff but slow kitchen. Had the wagyu steak sandwich and it was excellent. Really good. Fries were fresh oil cooked and perfect. Went back for the minestrone and it was a standout.

A family get together. Everyone enjoyed their meals. I am only going to review what i ate myself. To start with we had bread and dipping oil. This was nice but nothing extraordinary. I had salmon for main which was perfectly cooked with wilted greens which were firm and not overcooked. Meal sizes are large and we had no room for dessert. Only let down was service was very slow with us having to wait to order drinks. The coffee was also very slow coming and we has to ask twice to get it.

We had a wonderful experience at Dovetails for breakfast. We were greeted with such a friendly welcome and the service remained exceptional throughout. The restaurant itself is beautiful, tastefully refurbished and decorated. The deck outside is great, with a leafy outlook under the shade of a gorgeous old tree that the deck is built around. The menu was very appealing to us and there were also two breakfast specials- one sweet and one savoury. The food was lovely- we had the corn fritters with avo smash, and one of the specials (chorizo, haloumi, poached eggs, relish). We can't wait to return, and to try their lunch and dinner menu's!

My wife and I went out for lunch and few days after opening and could not fault one thing we tried. Between us we had the Queensland Scallops,  Octopus and  Chorizo Salad, Drunken Steak and Twice Cooked Pork Belly. Everything was cooked perfectly and was a real treat. I definitely recommend having the Queensland Scallops. I'm now waiting for a free morning to go back and try the breakfast menu.

In April 2017, the Pumpyard expanded their dining options with the opening of their new conference centre (the Lord Lamington Room that can cater for up to 200 for cocktails and 120 for sit down dinner) and à la carte finer dining restaurant Dovetails, (named in honour of the many carpenters who trained at this former TAFE complex). The expansion is the jewel in the Pumpyard’s crown... Maintaining a sense of heritage with its panelled timber walls and simple elegant furnishings and lighting, the large banquet table shows off dovetail joints on its timber top; the skill after which the restaurant was named. Look further and you’ll see more attributions in the large dining room adjoining the marble bar.

It was an absolute pleasure to eat here. Excellent service- scrumptious food! Very affordable too - it's so nice to go out for lunch and just have everything be delicious and perfect. Pictured is the brownie option (: I'll be back!

The reviews are accurate for this place. Warm and friendly staff, lovely setting on the deck, good coffee great food!!! Fresh juice would just make everything perfect. It’s hard to get warm genuine service in Brisbane so to see it in Ipswich is fantastic!. And don’t forget to tip the staff they’ve been through hell the last 18 months and without them there is no dining out. It’s vending machines only. I will be back for lunch or dinner soon. Thank you Dovetails

Absolutely stand out restaurant!! We live in Brisbane and it is completely worth the effort to go down and partake! Julia and Tahlia were simply incredible hosts and I feel privileged to have been able to laugh and chat with them both! The food is creative, tasty, incredibly well balanced and put simply delicious! We had such a great time and will definitely be back to sample the other dishes on the menu! Thank you for a beautiful dining experience. We feel privileged to have been able to witness such wonderful food and service. Gold stars to everyone involved! :-)

The restaurant was well presented and staff were inviting, professional and helpful. Main food (lunch) was a little ordinary compared to the dessert menu which was absolutely amazing. Price wise I thought a little more than expected but overall w the service, good choice of wine, and overall experience I was prepared to pay it.

As a group we ordered many of the dishes and all of them were excellent, from entrees through to dessert. And the service too was great, friendly, and very attentive without being too quick. Definitely our favourite home restaurant here in Ipswich and it's right up there with the best restaurants in Brisbane. Outstanding.

Perfect experience. We were seated outside under the beautiful tree, served by really great staff/management. Prompt service and absolutely delicious food. Staff were excellent with both meal and drink suggestions, free taste sampling and anything else required to make our meal satisfying.

Working my way through the menu. Latest find is the Brussel sprouts side dish. An absolute must to try. Always delighted by the staff’s knowledge and commitment to helping you choose exactly the right wine to compliment your chosen dish. My go to choice for guests to town. Beautiful food of dependable quality and excellent service in a magnificent heritage setting.
