we had a function here at rydges which was perfect, the stayed for the night and had breakfast which also was very good, then when sightseeing and came back for dinner at blues bar an grill and we had a lovely experience, food was wonderful, tasty and well presented and service was very good as we will definitely come back.
Almost, but not quite.. We went to the Bar & Grill for our buffet breakfast as part of our stay at Rydges.
The restaurant was nice, well decorated, and had a good view of the nearby parkland. However the buffet left a lot to be desired; the cooked food overall was inconsistent, average, and i could have done a better job with a microwave and one pan. The fruit was tinned, and glad-wrapped to be served on our next visit (as we arrived at clean up on our first visit and early for our next). The juices were placed in small bottles with striped straws which was a novelty, however they did not stay cold for long, and would have benefited from being kept in an ice bath. The pastries were cold, and there was no way to warm them, which was disappointing as they were very hard. the service was very nice, the cook even came out to let us know they had made fresh pastries for us (as requested). The music was good, providing a calm and gentle atmosphere.
Overall the food selection was adequate, however the cooked food fell short, perhaps a few minor changes would make things that little bit better.
Great tapas and bar menu. Kangaroo, lamb ribs, taquitos, chipotle goodness. Fantastic value and the staff are friendly and enthusiastic. The outdoor terrace is superb. I'll go out of my way to go back here - often
Stayed at Rydges for a night and came here to have a drink and something small to eat. The young lady at the bar was lovely, the beer and pina colada were nice and wedges were so good!! Would recommend and eat here again.
Came here last night for dinner. It was great night. Lovely food and excellent service.
