This is a lovely local pub. Trendy, clean yet cozy interior. Huge windows that open onto the street in summer, as warm moody lightning through winter. Great place for dinners, Sunday boozy lunches or even pre drinks before you go out. The food is pub food, nothing fancy, just the way you want your pub meal. Staff are always fantastic.
Decent pub meal. Came for $25 steak night (which is kinda expensive). You got proper steak, cooked well. I had the ribs which for $33 was a very good price - considering how expensive it normally is you got a really good sized serving. They have a great selection of beers on tap, nice wine and hard to fine whiskey. definitely more gastro than pub but it’s good to see the steak has stayed the same even though it’s in a new guise.
Food: great pub food that I enjoy!!! it’s our local, so we have tried heaps of the menu and would solidly rate 8.5/9 for all items across the board. Not your average pub feed real quality.
Service: attentive, no complaints.
Ambiance. Nice finishings. I’m very comfortable here. Like I said not your average pub. I HATE PUBS USUALLY!
Try the live music on Sundays creates a really nice atmosphere..... and they do specials each night- (Wednesday-Parma etc etc)

This place serves consistently good food. I have had delivery a few times as I haven't wanted to cook and it always arrives as if it would if you were dining in.
The chicken Parma was a huge serve; all Breast chicken and quality ingredients.
The steak was terrific too but they forgot a sauce so it was a bit bland; the popcorn chicken we only got 4 tiny pieces so for the $15 that was a rip off! Tasty so would love more than 4 tiny pieces.
Their side salads are some of the best in the area. Love the radish and salad greens they use! So tasty.
Mad that you couldn't get a seat at 505? After something a bit more causal? Want the beer AND the sport? Maybe this is the place for you: The Bush Inn. It's the perfect neighborhood sports bar. It feels right here, an absolute classic.
Logic would dictate that if the vibe here is so right that the food would be somewhat lacking. This is true but it's also just some good pub food to chow down on. I often get the parma, and every time I walk past I think about the Wednesday chicken special. Parma is a large one, with lots of sauce and cheese. I don't usually go the ham on the parma but this one I did.
Basketball is often on the screens in the outdoor smoking area, sometimes on bigger screens inside. Staff are so helpful that they will even change the channel if nobodys watching it. Have never watched a full game here, but have been introduced to football, greyhound racing and other sports I never would have considered.
Big fan of this griup of restaurants. Great atmosphere. Lovely staff. I shared the lamb shoulder with my bro and it melted.. absolutely stunning. Great wine list (i dont drink). Will definitely be back for more!!
I love dropping in on a weeknight just after work. The atmosphere is perfect for a quiet dinner for two. The staff preempt your needs and the food is like a loving hug after a long day in the cold and rain.
Since it was the Bush Inn it has been synonymous with excellent steak but a change in name and decor did not mean a change in quality. Definitely a place to enjoy.
If it was fully booked it could be quite an overbearing atmosphere but so far of the dozen times I've been here, it's always been just perfect.
The cosy atmosphere and lovey decor make for a comfortable eating environment. The food was very enjoyable and the wine list was good. The staff are attentive without being overwhelming and they make great coffee . Good location for a casual weekend lunch or dinner .
Love your Steak. Night out with friends and had a great welcome at the door, friendly staff and best of all the food was fantastic and great value. I had the Chicken breast this time but will be back again for a great steak....
Good steaks. We've gone to the Bush Inn regularly over the last 3 years and have never been disappointed. In an area where it's hard to get a good steak, this is the consistent place.
