White Oaks Saloon serves Southern American food. A perusal of the extensive menu gave us a very bad attack of choice paralysis, so we decided to stick with the classics of Sweet Southern BBQ Baby Back Ribs ($16), Carolina BBQ Pulled Pork Chimichangas (2pcs/$14), Cajun fries and Cajun tabasco mayo ($16) and Buffalo Chicken and Jalepeno Ranch ($19). Overall, I had a fantastic time at White Oaks Saloon. It was a haunt we stumbled upon and I would definitely come back to try the other dishes on their menu. They have quite a few restaurants from the same owners as well. It doesn't hurt that it is partnered with Zomato Gold which meant our Beef Ribs were not charged. The service was warm and friendly. The interior has saloon touches which we enjoyed and the bar is a sight to look at. The food was great and definitely left us feeling full and satisfied. I just would've loved an extra notch on the spice levels.
The food is snacky American stuff but yummy. Jelapeno poppers and the chicken were really good! But really, the drinks are the star here. We had some very, very impressive cocktails.
Also, cosy setting and great service. Highly recommend.
Will come back for:
+ Jalapeño Poppers
+ Southern Quesadilla
+ Shrimp tacos
+ Pear salad
Was here for dinner (booked through fork) and was pretty impressed with the cosy bar setup. The Mexican inspired food was largely on point, and we loved the jalapeño poppers (crunchy and spicy), the quesadilla (soft bread filled with delicious fillings), the delightfully crunchy and textural shrimp tacos and the peer salad to just refresh the palate. We also had the chilli Mac and cheese (I do prefer the classic over this one), the buffalo chicken (these were a little too tangy for our liking) and the ribs which were also super tender and a generous serve. The place had a great selection of drinks and I can see this as a great hangout place for a few drinks with mates and some nibbles. Prices were reasonable for what you get even without the discount. Our waiter was friendly, knowledgeable and just super helpful and we loved our dining experience here and would definitely be back!

Well howdy! If you’re looking for a good Southern American feast, and good drinks then look no further than this place! The food here is seriously tasty including the most amazing Chili Mac and Cheese which I’m obsessed with. Never mind the fantastic cocktails, and all the fantastic dishes on offer!

White Oaks Saloon Bar is pleasantly styled inside with a substantial bar selection and subtle neon in places. There’s a lot to see and a lot of eclectic items. Outside tables line Greville street and it’s there that I chose to perch with my Pre dinner cocktail. Parchment fizz with gin and pear was not syrupy sweet so on the dryer end of a sweet cocktail range. Delicious and refreshing as I watched the sun go down. White Oaks does food which I’ll have to stop in for again but on all accounts this looks interesting. Specials board out front advertised daily food, drinks and food drink combo specials.
White Oaks is one of my favourite locals - I go all the time for drinks and if I’m feeling peckish, I always get either one of the chickens, mac and cheese, the chimichanga or ribs. The bartenders are great and really know how to make a mean drink, I love getting a pina colada or the thyme and apricot sour.
This American style dining and bar place might be small in space but they make it up with an extensive selection of alcohols and delicious food. I got to try a rootbeer flavoured beer which is so good. The gumbo is comforting, peppery and full of flavours. Both boneless chicken dishes are juicy and the dipping sauces are delight
Came here using Zomato gold, this southern American/Texas bar got lots to offer.
The place is decorated well and really got the wild west cowboy vibe, even the entrance to toilet fits the theme.
Must note that the two staffs(owner?) are extremely friendly, caring and attentive. Their attention to details regarding service are top notch! Food however, could be better (steak need to be rested) but great flavour wise.
They also got whiskey pairing and wide range of drinks and snacks available, good as a hanging out spot/night out with friends.

Great service! Coffee rub steak was very yum and you cannot lose with ZG :)
Not sure why I have to write 140 characters...but anyway this place is definitely worth a visit!
Enjoyed drinks and dinner here. Highlights were the buffalo chicken, coffee rub steak and cornbread. Venue was quite cold though, wish they’d turned the heaters on, everyone was wearing their jackets still.
This Saloon bar is a place of meeting, of sharing with people from all around the world. Apart from having passionate managers, the location is ideal, a peaceful and pleasant atmosphere. I highly recommend. Thank you for the personalized cocktail, it was a wonder for the taste buds. hats off 😊🇦🇺🇲🇺 ( From Nick, Yohan and Sandrine)

Excellent food and service, lots of gluten free options and delicious cocktails - definitely recommend!
Absolutely stunning venue! Staff are friendly, drinks are tasty af, and food was absolutely balls to the wall amazing as anything! We had the fries (with guac and salsa I believe), the chicken tacos, the prawn tacos, the chilli mac 'n' cheese, and the star of the show, the fried green tomato sliders!
I give this place a solid 5/7, the perfect score.
