Mountain Monk Brewers — Restaurant in Victoria

Tried these guys out for lunch on a busy Saturday with some friends, first impressions were great, very big shop space, heaps of seating available, they have a great outdoor lawn space also, quite a range of beers available on tap, I tried their tasting paddle of 4 beers of your own choice for 15 dollars, though a way of identifying which beers are which would have been nice as I didn't see what order they put them in on the paddle and 3 of the 4 were the exact same colour. They were all top drops nevertheless, one other small criticism would be none of the beers had any sort of head. Perhaps it's the way they clean their glasses? They all looked flat sadly! Food was ok, a reasonable sized menu to choose from, few parmis available, 4 or 5 burgers too, a number of salads ect. The missus opted for the southern fried chicken burger, I had the smoked salmon salad, it was nice but nothing to write home about. Another criticism was I went to order a coffee at the end as they had a lovely coffee machine at the end of the bar but they don't serve coffee at lunch times, only in the mornings, I didn't know they were open for breakfast! 3 stars for these...

Bad experience, poor customer service. I felt very uncomfortable, and didn't feel welcome. We came from the city to suppprt regional Victorian local businesses. Unwelcomed when we entered your Bristo. Please educate your staff on how to treat patrons in a mannered way. Not to be treated badly. The other lady behind the counter who 1st approached us also was uncomfortable as well with the way she jump in to our conversation. I can see few negative comments prior to me regarding customer service. So something management required to address. We didn't dine here,even after the booking made in advance. Went to another local business which were so pleased to see us and earned 5 star rating. As we know not all are the same! P.S. we don't need an excuse. Please educate staff. The language tone dose not need to change when you approach different skin colour.😂 we do speak the...

I’d like to give 3 stars, as the garden bar was a lovely tranquil place for a beer after a walk, swim, scramble, etc, up the gorge, but too many things let it down. First, while the beers that were available were good, not everyone drinks alcohol and there was not a single non-alcoholic beer available. There are now, literally, dozens available by bottle and can and it can’t be that hard to cater for the occasional customer who wants one. Second, the brisket burger was, quite possibly, the most tasteless one of its kind I have ever had. It wasn’t unpleasant, just remarkably bland. Seemingly unflavoured meat on a bun with raw tomatoes, unmelted cheese (as they were on top of the raw tomatoes) and a plain mayo. No discernible flavour. Finally, while ok, neither of my companions raved about the baos or taco bowl. Again, lacking any...
