Best places: Bar and grills in City of Greater Bendigo

😐 In Melbourne and craving some hotpot and with 3.8k reviews and 4.8 stars, I thought we can't go wrong, but I'm honestly not sure why it's so highly rated. It's not bad, but I think it's far from a 5 star. The meat quality and selection is not that great. Also, at that price, I expect fresh house-ma...

👍👍 Bouvier is a hidden gem of Lygon Street. Unassuming from the outside, the inside is a sleek, cosy cocktail bar and bistro serving classic and well executed NY Italian-inspired fare. The snacks are a must - I loved the gnocco frito, anchovy toast and corn ribs with chimichurri. They also do a truly...

😠 Dodgy operation, avoid at all costs. We had an early Christmas here on a Saturday afternoon from 2-6pm on the rooftop, paying for a 4-hours drink package including food as advertised. Customer Service was fine leading up to the event and the bartender was great who was assigned to the rooftop area...

Offbeat basement restaurant focusing on grilled & smoked meat cuts, with craft beers & bourbon.

👍👍 I absolutely love this venue. From the first time I came here to throw axes all the way through to attending the first marathon league there last.

👍👍 Popped in here for a light brunch and was very impressed with the customer service, quality food, and general great ambiance here. Great vibe with the music and simple decor. Nice cheerful greeting and seating on arrival, attentive staff, and very much enjoyed my poached eggs on sourdough with bac...

👍 The service was great and we got our food pretty quick. The wings and sides were good. The brisket and chicken were a bit dry but we're still tasty. The only negative was that the veggies were super salty. Still tasty and okay to eat with some cornbread and coleslaw but hard to eat on its own. Overa...
