![Zomato]( "Recensione")
After attending an art exhibition opening night, hubby and I headed to the Federal Hotel for a quick dinner. Service was very friendly and warm, and we were given cold water and menus promptly. I chose a prosecco, while hubby went for a soft drink. We both decided on a salad – halloumi for him, and a roasted vegetable version with a poached egg on top for me. There were also slices of cucumber, and some green leaves. I added grilled chicken, which came as tender and delicious strips, and I would have loved a bit more. I enjoyed this salad, but I felt it could have done with a bit of a lift like a spritz of lemon juice, and maybe a scattering of toasted nuts, and some black pepper. The vegetables were roasted in a plain oil, and I would have liked the bite of olive oil instead. But that’s a minor point, and just my preference. We shared a bowl of fries with aioli. Hubby enjoyed his salad of roast pumpkin, with the salty, squeaky halloumi and green leaves, and chickpeas. The hotel interior is quirky, painted in black with interesting murals, a chandelier or two, and corrugated iron walls. We had a pleasant dinner, and would happily dine again on our next trip up to the Fraser Coast area.
Wow what an oasis in this little town. 'The Fed' is locally owned and operated by a young chef and his wife. The atmosphere is great, giving me the feeling of coming home to my local, warm and inviting. The staff are amazing! Friendly, fast, always willing to help. The Beer is cold, good selection of ales other than the usuals. The food left me speechless. Presentation is exciting, smell is enticing, flavors are mouth watering. Perfectly cooked with actual care an passion. This is my new favorite place in Maryborough. Highly recommend you try.
great variety of craft beer on tap (none in the area does that) and in bottles but no pokies and TAB though if you're feeling too rich and wanna waste some cash.
Great menu and good chef make this friendly Pub a top night out. Plus a good wine list and excellent beers on tap. It sits comfortably within Maryborough's heritage precinct.
