I took a long time to get here but, wow, I was mighty impressed! This is not just a beer hall with burgers . Oh, no, you have an excellent menu with plenty of options, including burgers. I'll upload the menu but it will change soon as a new chef is coming on board to spice things up(that's a hint.). The food is absolutely top notch excellent. Not massive plates but enough and you'll need room for a couple more beers, regardless. I had Vietnamese pork belly slice and salad. Incredibly tender meat and moist, the salad was an incredible mix of intense flavours that was as delicious the meat. I left nothing. My great mate had a yiros and loved every last morsel. All meals are paid for at the bar then bought to your table. Despite being very busy all meals were coming out quite quickly. Food prices are very friendly to your wallet, including beer price as well. You could head to a equivalent winery anywhere & pay nearly double for a similar day out! Brewery tours are available but I didn't ask the price. There's stacks of seating and heaps of options, upstairs and down. Groups are catered for where required. Now the question on everyone's mind-"Do they have decent rest rooms?". Well, they do. Quite large, modern and clean! Men's, ladies & disabled. Believe me some places have very poor facilities, these are great. Many wineries should take note, these are the standard! Carparking is marginal but there are options & if your hitting the heavies you should think about getting dropped off & picked up. There are around 18 beers on tap. From 0% to hero 10+%. Heaps of styles and if you can't find something you like then just drink water. You can get public transport very close to here from, both, Magill Rd & Payneham Rd. It's a couple of minutes max from the bus stops. Overall, this is a top notch venue for a great day out. Highly...
Read moreLittle Bang is dangerously close to our home, and we take advantage of its proximity. The selection of beers is incredible -- from nice, mild ales to hoppy IPAs to interestingly flavored sours to serious stouts, there is something for everyone.
My favorites are Sludgebeast and Kentucky Sludge. These are both high-octane stouts, quite tasty, and they will bite you. Make sure that you are not driving after you've had one of these. I had both that night, and the person serving me asked if I was aware of the alcohol percentage. I assured him that I was (I like my high-octane stouts), and I also assured him that I was walking home.
'All good!' he said.
In fact, 'all good' pretty much sums up Little Bang. The space is welcoming, despite its cavernous size; staff are knowledgeable and friendly; and the food is downright tasty. The Missus and I have sampled several offerings, and we would like to warn you about the Gates of Hell wings.
They are ... spicy. Very spicy. Lip-burning spicy. That said, they are f-ing delicious. They aren't those phony, boneless wings either. There are also other, less painful, flavors to choose from. The schnittys are also damn good -- great breading and nice, thick slabs. I must say that the gravy that day was a tad vinegary for my liking.
Visit Little Bang ... you won't be...
Read moreSome of your beers are seriously good. Eg Sludgebeast.
However the way you treat your customers needs some tweaking. We pre-booked for a large group table for the weekend and spent plenty of money on drinks and food. No one got drunk and everyone was well-behaved. Yet one of your staff came to us and said we’ve got two strikes and if we get a third one you will be kicking us out. The two strikes were because on a couple of occasions we inadvertently stood and were told to be seated while drinking. One occasion was for accidentally standing and drinking water. Another occasion was for standing and bringing the drinks up to our nose to smell the aroma. We totally understand the stresses from this Covid new world and the fines you can get for not following the government rules. However you didn’t need to be so aggressive and threatening. We were not deliberately flouting the rules and a pleasant reminder was all we needed. Hopefully you can treat your customers better next...
