The Postman's Leg

Gastropub

😐 The food is ok, nothing special but really expensive. The kids lamb pie is not good at all my daughter couldn't take more than one bite and I agreed with her. Cocktails were nice. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Nice small playground for kids. Family friendly. There is an outdoor area for s...

The Lula Inn

Bar

👍👍 The food was amazing. Lots of food choices and everything tasted good. Grilled fish, popcorn cauliflower, pizza and prawn dumplings were spot on. We had a group booking outside which had a nice view. Had a great time. The only downside was that there is limited mocktail menu and I had to pay cocktai...

Mission Bay Tap Room - Good George

Pub

👍 Have been here a number of times and it’s always a pleasant experience. The mushroom pizza was delicious, had a good amount of mushrooms on it but not a lot of depth in flavour. The onion rings were very average. The onion was soggy, no crunch and coating was oily with no flavour to it. The service...

Black Salt Bar & Eatery

Bar

👍 We went to this pub for drinks, nibbles, and the weekly trivia competition. The bar was packed, with very loud and lively music. We ordered our drinks and food and settled in for the trivia game. While we enjoyed playing the game (and ended up winning 2nd place), it was annoying that the music was s...

The Fiddler Irish Bar

Bar

👍👍 Very nice bar with a super lovely german manager. They have live music from ca. 8pm til midnight. Beer costs around 8 till 10$, thats a little bit more compared to other locations in that area, but you get pretty good beer. In summer it gets crowded a lot, so be there early.

Ellice Road Social Lounge

Bar

👍👍 We were the other party that were double booked accidently (through no fault of the bar manager, Nikki, but a previous bar managers' error). It doesn't seem like this is the norm here as Nikki was extremely well organised and communicative throughout the booking process. And hey... mistakes happen....

Jervois Rd Wine Bar + Kitchen

Bar

👍👍 5/5 wine recommendations (had an Argentinian red and white was from Venice) 5/5 vibes. (live musician was present but we didn't get to hear him. We left around 6.45pm) 4/5 food. (Ricotta Gnudi was soft and pillowy) Thank you lovely staff who recommended the exceptional wines 🤌🤌

👍👍 One of a kind - cosy, quirky place with fine wine, great beer and good food. Staff are charming and the vibe is nicely laid back. Added bonus: great fish and chip shop across the road.

The Paw Bar & Eatery Parnell

Restaurant

👍👍 We had such a friendly and down to earth experience at The Paw. Our golden retriever was treated like gold, the owners were so kind and hospitable, the Golden Retriever Daze cocktail had so many flavours as did the Garden Lovers pizza and we LOVED the dog menu. One of the owners even ran out to buy...
