Been here twice - once for a company lunch in Summer during Christmas time, second for a dinner catch up on a Thursday with friends.

I both dislike, and love the different areas. I love there is a lot of seating. Outdoor space is nice, particularly in the Summer, lots of space, you won’t struggle for seating for larger groups. Indoors is the same though it can get loud inside with people drinking and chatting. I dislike how hard it is to navigate if you’re new to the space. I made a reservation for my dinner in the Tap Room but wasn’t sure who to ask about where to sit as there isn’t a designated person directing people and checking reservations. I waited for a friend and we ended up just finding my name on a table.

Menu has a range of things - probably something for everyone. I ordered a seafood linguine (pictured). It was creamy, and had a decent amount of seafood - some clamshells had broken so I found a few pieces in the pasta, but the overall dish tasted good. Friends ordered a fish and chips and a parma. Couldn’t go wrong with either of those. Both very generous sized though I wasn’t able to snap any images of my friends’ meals.

Little things: as with any bar - can get super busy. For food, you order and pay at the register and get your buzzer to pick up your order once its ready. For dinner - kitchen takes orders up to 8:45pm. They also don’t do take away but they will make you the dish served on a plate and give you a take away container to put your food in. There is also security outside by about 8-9ish which is also assuring when you’re walking to your car late in the night.

Overall a decent hangout space. Gets super packed as its a hangout space for Monash students usually.
