Comments of Balmoral Hotel
M. C.
Very nice atmosphere for that bar. Good service at the bar and pretty large choice of drinks on tap.
The food was basic but good, portions are quite big for mains.
You can either order from bar or from QR code on table.
I just wish the outdoor area was smokefree
M. N.
Love the tap and scan function on the tables outside, to be able to order straight from the table and not have to wait for staff to take our orders! Food was great. Company was great and staff service was amazing too, great for a Friday night with friends :)
C. M.
They have a couple of good IPAs on tap. The food is not bad too. This is one of the few places that is dog friendly, and had a decent sized out door area. I was able to sit outside and be shielded from the rain. They also have outdoor wall mounted heaters that make the outside pretty comfy in winter. The catering is pretty quick and the staff are friendly and accommodating. I'd definitely visit again.
D. H.
Service was excellent. Love the building and outdoor area. Been visiting here since mid 90s. It has been reinvented a few times and this is a pretty good version of this venue. Food is pretty good too, banana flower tacos and burger were excellent, steak sandwich was yum but smallish. Good parking options.
P. M.
Had a table for 16 set up on arrival busy lunch hour crowd food excellent manager very helpful
T. S.
Great local pub with a great atmosphere. The staff were friendly and helpful when placing our order.
C. J.
I go to the Balmoral fairly often. Their food and service is always great and consistent. Despite being a busy pub it's one of the places I think manages COVID-19 measures miles ahead of most. They take it seriously and that matters to me enough to make it a top choice when we go out.
D. W.
Pretty nice environment. We brought a dog along. Pet friendly. Staff was accommodating. Food was good too.
j. h.
Had a great night. Lovely bartender suggested a cocktail and it was amazing. Great service, music and drinks ❤️
J. W.
Absolutely amazing atmosphere. Staff go above and beyond. I hope all the complainers are aware its the government that have implemented the double vaxx rule. Unfortunately hospitality staff deal with the abuse from just following the laws imposed upon them by the govt.
J. F.
Great casual bar atmosphere. Easy management. Love the menu app with payment. Can sit and chat without anyone having to run off to the bar.
A. W.
Favourite local, also best part; dog friendly!! And staff are absolutely awesome with professionalism and customer service..
A. F.
My first time today at the Balmoral for 40 years. The team of young food and beverage staff was just fantastic - kind though not patronising toward us baby boomers, really efficient and with a great spirit about them. I hope the boss recognises how great they are...
J. G.
Space is good but the beers are outrageously priced. A pint of pirate life summer ale was over $13. Won't be going back at those prices.
A. G.
Went there for a birthday dinner. The place was packed but I managed to find parking to everyone's surprise. There are different pockets with different vibes - garden, inside, sidewalk, etc. Lovely though noisy, as is expected. The food was generous as local pub food tend to be. A few of us had the parmageddon - chicken, chips and a drink. Great value. A few bits of salad would have perfected it so it doesn't look like it's missing something. You can swap the drink for non-al. All easy and nice tucker to chill in good company. And as we were leaving we discovered kids eat free on Monday nights! Bonus!
P. K.
Very comfortable local pub, especially out the back. Food is decent (the chips and aoli were really good). Lots of beers on tap and quite a few drink specials. Their normal pricing is on the upper end of the scale tho. A pint of tap ginger beer that has never cost me more than $12 (for the same brand) elsewhere shocked me at $14.50 (!!!) here.
k. m.
Always friendly, helpful staff. The hotel has alot of character to it & clean. Meals are reliable price & never had an unsatisfied feed. Plenty of parking out the back which is always a bonus. Always drawned back with my friends because of these reasons. Thanku to all the staff for helping my time enjoyable 🤗
J. K.
Such a great venue. Amazing food menu for all tastes. Plenty of great beers on tap and in the fridge, cocktails and spirits. One of the best beer gardens around with super friendly staff.
P. W.
Great venue, lots of nice outdoor space and good beer selection! Nice snacks
i. b.
Excellent food, great tap selection and dog friendly in the shady courtyard. Would recommend.
A. H.
Delicious beer and even better food! First time here and will definitely be back!
Edit: originally wrote this review two years back, but wanted to come back and edit it.
The Balmoral Hotel has continued to be one of our favourite lunch destinations over the past few years with delicious food and a good selection of rotating craft beer taps.
We always have a very pleasant experience, love the decor and design of the venue and the staff are always very friendly and welcoming.
Definitely recommend visiting for a drink and meal!
If my review helped, consider dropping a like! 😊👍
X. S.
They have some great selections of menu items and specials for the day. Steak was average, a little chewy for medium rare though. Peppercorn sauce for the steak is nice but Red wine jus sauce was quite disappointing. Would have much preferred the greens over the coleslaw salads. Friendly waitstaff.
Normally comes with salad & chips but I opted for more salad instead of chips for a keto friendly meal.
M. t. B.
Buzzing location, great Friday night vibes. The cuisine is cooked well and good portion sizing. Great pub grub. Service is good and staff are attentive. Very impressed when we dined here. Parking was tight but manageable. I would recommend using a ride sharing company to get here.
A. P.
Amazing place to eat. My husband and love to come here and eat outside on the patio. Great value for your money. Great food and great service. Also they do a dog wash on Sundays if the weather is nice for a donation to Shenton dog refugee. Just pay a gold coin and your fur baby can have a wash. Just a heads up the tub they wash the dogs in isn't overally huge for big dogs so if you have a large dog I don't recommend plus it's high off the ground so my girl couldn't even get up even though my husband helped. Other than that it's a great way to support the dog refugee.
P. E.
We went for Xmas lunch.
Food good and the service was attentive. It was a very hot day, and all staff were great.
M. M.
Love the techo table ordering system, might be less employment opportunity for wait staff, however, still need staff to deliver to your food which is good. Love the ambiance with live music on Sunday afternoon and vegan/vegetarian options. Like the alfresco areas. Bathrooms kept reasonably clean.
C. C.
Great service. Food came out way too quick - literally 10 minutes after we ordered... Was ok.
D. P.
came in for dinner, had a yummy Mexican share board. food was good and out quickly, friendly staff and cold beer
V. L.
Nice spacious pub with parking at rear, good atmosphere and surprisingly not too busy for a Saturday night
E. P.
Had lunch today. Excellent food. Great menu choices especially today's special. Service was awesome. Our waitperson was attentive without been intrusive. Would definitely return.
m. h.
Our local pup always great service and staff super friendly. Of late though the menu has been a bit disappointing with some odd things on offer.
Tried the banana blossom tempura i thought it was just awful and tasteless. My friend had the whitebait starter she didnt rate it at all. I think condencing the menu is a good idea but whatever is on there should have a bit more flavour and punch.
P. H.
Great night, venue was perfect in the upstairs room with balcony for a 40th.
Staff were attentive, bar guy (Shane) was lovely, very friendly and the food was great.
T. D.
Had a great night upstairs at a private function for my niece's Birthday. Food was great and beer was cold. Big crowd all had a fantastic evening.
M. T.
Love this place, great vibe and the food and drinks always come out at a timely pace. The food is okay at best, parmigiana isn't over big and the caesar salad I had was far too salty with way too much parmesan cheese thrown on. But despite it I'd still come back i do enjoy this place thoroughly
J. R.
Nice corn chips with guac for 2! Enjoyed with some drinks, ideal place to eat, drink and have some fun! Cheers!
K. G.
Great choice of beers. Food menu is good too and very consistent.
m. s.
ALH Woolies owned pub, this review is mostly for my own notes. Terrible local beer list. Atmosphere is good though. Good bogan spotting. Dog friendly and they have a dog wash on Sundays from 12pm-3pm for a Gold coin donation.
Edit - what local beers would I like? You guys are near Blasta, Bright Tank, Otherside... Just something owned by a WA brewery.
k. w.
The Bal is my favourite place to catch up with friends for a bite & a beer, amazing atmosphere & the staff are always lovely! 😊
S. L.
Great local pub that has evolved over the years. Good variety of food and extensive drinks to wet the palette. Staff were pretty good, main draw card is the outside areas to relax and have a drink or nibble with friends.
L. G. (.
Great pub but food is a bit basic for the prices.
J. G.
We had a wonderful evening. Value, atmosphere and service was excellent. Our server was Zoe, she was so attentive and helpful and friendly love her. Thank you thank you 🙏😊
L. C.
good service great atmosphere for Sunday beer live music made it 👍
D. K.
Nice place and busy. New service staff. Forgot our order, wrote it down wrong they did try to fix it but otherwise ok. Food was ok. Ribs were unreal and definitely recommend.
E.
First time visitor loved it great food good atmosphere and great serving sizes. Reasonable prices too. Will be back
S. G.
good vibe pub. had a lovely sunday lunch with attentive service from staff. Will and Joseph were friendly
S. E.
Atmosphere plus - if your looking for a good pub meal well look here. Make sure you book as this place is popular. Live music on Friday nights makes the Balmoral a great weekend starter.
R. W.
Went for an engagement party. Food was great! Drinks selections were excellent.
Will try the normal dining experience!
C. L.
Amazing place. Perfectly catered for and the staff are enthusiastic and amazing. My first time back after a few years and it did not disappoint. One of the bar fellas even came from behind the bar to help me with carrying drinks. Outside bar with large screen and large space is excellent giving a festival feel!!! First rate, Well done! Well recommended.
E. C.
Would have to say this is the best pub in Perth! Love the $15 steak and quiz night. The guy who does the quiz is personable and funny. The steak is a seriously delicious meal and especially great for the price. Have been so many times and never once had a bad experience. The service is always great and super quick! A well oiled machine for sure!
E. P. &. C.
Cheap Drinks, Girls behind bar is amazing great atmosphere
k. A.
Great venue and beer selection. TV in back area is very pixelated for watching sports and could do with an upgrade!
C. S.
Good food and service, staff friendly and helpful. Not too noisy for a Friday lunch time.
j.
Food was great, drinks were good, overall nice place for lunch⭐
n. p.
There's been a recent high turnover of staff, the new VM seems to have rattled a few people. Change in glassware sizes and a few other minor details. Still a good pub though. ALH owned so the usual monthly specials
A. E.
Cold beer, great food, good prices. Friendly staff. In door, outdoor and garden settings. Recommended
J. A.
Fantastic afternoon great lunch. Good service, cold Crown lager & wine..
H. K.
Always a good place for a quiet beer or two. Good choice of drinks available. Food menu is good. If you love extra crispy chips they do that too 😊
E.
Good pub to meet people, alway found bar staff friendly and efficient. Outdoor and semi-outdoor spaces.
J. G.
Great local pub with a great range of veggie options on the venue. Inside and outside areas with a cozy atmosphere.
J. W.
Good food and amazing service by staff. Had a good explanation of banana blossom dish from Joseph. Thank you, mate
z. r.
great customer service and awesome atmosphere, best place for a burger and beer 😁
E. A.
Went to the Tuesday quiz, had a good host, and very reasonably priced food and drink. A good local spot
M. L.
The service was good, the food was good and they have live music. They do split billing. I had the rabbit pie for dinner and apple pie for dessert which were good. The only inconvenience is that the live music is next to the place you pay, so it's impossible to hear the staff.
A. Z.
Huge servings of decent pub grub with great specials on most nights. There's always a great craft beer or two on the taps and 2 decent outside seating areas.
l. h.
Had lunch with the family on Christmas eve all enjoyed it
Staff very helpful
Service was good
M. M.
Nice food in generous portions, so luckily they let you take a doggy bag home if you don't finish. The cocktail I had was more like a mocktail though, so drink for taste only. (It was tasty, no disappointment there.)
R.
Heaters were on and it was way to hot to sit inside.
6 of us had a farewell lunch and all meals were great, we’ll definitely be back.👍🏻
Thanks for replying to my comment next time we’ll ask to turn them off if its too hot.
B. G.
Really nice food, fast service and friendly staff. This is a very loud pub.
T. G.
Food and drinks delish. Cool atmosphere love all the plants
D. W.
Great Xmas meal. Nice atmosphere. Friendly staff.
J. S.
Decent drink prices, decent food, and the girls behind the bar are incredibly attractive. Would strongly recommend
B. H.
Great place for lunchtime dining
Excellent seating areas indoors and out
Used to head here for Beef and Guinness pie...sadly not on the menu any more.
Serving portions very generous so think about sharing if you go for lunch if you are an oldie like me.
Apparently the choice of beers is good too.
L. P.
Delicious coconut seafood curry(red) with crunchy chicken wings and quesadillas. Tasty and all gone.😂
F. F.
Quiet beer Saturday morning was very nice,had a meal n was very tasty.
E. Z.
So good to have a pub offering so many vegan options. Food is great; though there is room for improvement. Vegan burger patty is regularly not cooked enough. The burrito definitely needs a sauce. Loaded fries are amazing! Service is always friendly and the amount of patrons speaks for itself. Recommended.
J. C.
We were just walking past and thought we would see if there were any good deals for a feed. $15 for a parmi and pint! Bang what a deal! Our group of 6 all smashed it and continued our night. Thanks for having a sweet deal! The double bass and harmonica duo was cool too
A.
Love this place. Awesome relaxing atmosphere great food, great service
S. A. C.
Nice friendly pub, good selection of tap beers and the menu/food looks decent also :) I can only vouch for the brisket loaded chips, as that's all I tried... but they were very tasty!
A spacious, modern and lively venue with cool decor and multiple seating areas (inside and out) Also has a free car park out the back, but tends to get busy!
All in all, a good spot for a catch up with mates, an after work drink, or even a Sunday sesh. Staff very friendly also. Recommended!
H. F.
Had a good pub lunch, staff is efficient, beers are cold.
R. T.
Good facilities, friendly staff and a basic food menu with a decent drink selection. Good place for casual connects with friends or family
K. C.
Attended a 50th birthday, great service thru out the night, glassies were on the ball clearing many emptied beautiful platters presented well & tasty
Highly recommend
T. S.
Ordinary, no sauce on the ribs, the slaw was just shredded cabbage - no dressing at all, this cant be a chef choice?. Blue cheese sausage rolls were dry, a light sprinkle of blue cheese would have been nice, $15 for a sausage roll is not cool. The place is so loud so don't expect to have any conversation. I would try again if I knew they had made some changes.
C. B.
Was there tonight decent venue beer range is a 7/10 but had the ribs and they were terrible.
Cold, lacked and real flavour or seasoning.
The sausage rolls as a shared entree were good though
A. &. S. B.
Fantastic priced lobster. Very quick service. We went Tuesday night. dog friendly, had bowls and treats for dogs, will look forward to going again.
K. C.
Really enjoyed our table for 8 lunch today, great in-house service from staff and comfortable atmosphere.... Food was fantastic too!
Great job and recommend highly😊
T. J.
Not sure what's happened to this place recently. New menu is so small and lost all the classics. Craft beer selection has really declined too (They had Stella on the craft beer taps the other night) Pint of mid strength Feral Runt was $13.40... sheesh. Toilets are in major need of a renovation and the upstairs area looks like it's from the 80s. Still a great chilled atmosphere and use to be my favourite pub in Perth, hopefully it returns to it in the future.
S. M.
I had a beer at the pub, it's nice and historical, well presented and they have the usual range of beers and food items. I tend to find these venues a little boring and I like air-conditioning. It was ok. Recommended
I. S.
Haven't been there for several years.
A good place for ex-workplace catch-up.
J. W.
Excellent place to meet and have a meal or a meal or both.
Plenty of beers on tap
P. C.
Decent sized outfit means everyone finds a spot to rest and recreate. Excellent location. Friendly staff, and plenty floating, which makes it a breeze to order and be served, good on em to flood the place with staff. Been told grub's decent, looks it from vat I've seen. A must see/be on the strip
F. S.
First off, we received an exceptional service from Brendon, thumbs up mate, Keep up the good work!
We also had a great time in the restaurant. The chicken wings were yumm and the lobster was delicious. Noice!
A. B.
It was a busy Sunday as there was a women's UFC being televiswd throughout the rear beer garden. There was plenty of space in the front beer garden, but as a ranga I avoid the sun as much as possible. As it was a very warm day and we had no interest it the televised fight we decided to eat inside.
The staff were super busy, but also super friendly. The dining area was clean, tidy and inviting.
Unfortunately we were so engrossed in our meals we forgot to take photos. The meal size is generous, but not ridiculous. Food was well presented, delicious and well priced.
There was also some live music playing in the front bar which was a pleasant surprise.
We will be back again.
R. W.
The venue has some positives. Its nicely done with traditional brick appearance from the outside and the inside. Reasonable bar food menu. On a couple of occations I've been disappointed with the food because they seem to take a minimalist approach to serving food that can be described as mid level pricey. Need a quality chef to oversee the servings.
C. K.
Nice pub, good food, and the comedy shows are great.
R. W.
Great food. Great size portions. Awesome prices. Great atmosphere. Definitely recommend it.
G. F.
Everything you could want in a local pub....great beer selection, flavour packed food and friendly staff. 10/10
C. M.
Food was so good, gardens are nice, will be back
c. h.
Great food, awesum place for catch ups. Friendly staff an atmosphere

Balmoral Hotel May 27th Thursday Schitt’s Creek Quiz night was anything but Schitt.
Attentive, not helicopter staff (Sophie? and Jack and third staff member who brought our food, didn’t get her name, because....you know....food)
Quiz started on time (well....as soon as last booked table arrive). Quiz dude, audible, clear, friendly and competent. Sophie checked in to ensure we weren’t blown away as we were closer to speaker than others. Nice. Quiz didn’t drag on. No silly challenges. Great questions. All wrapped up by 9pm cos it’s a school night.😊
Food: order taken in a timely manner. Drink order placed first, obviously.
3 delicious meals, with teeny menu change obligingly notes and delivered. Bonus, all arrived at the same time and all fabulous. Well priced. Sirloin steak, snapper and chips, Cajun chicken salad FYI.
Coffees and mocktail to finish.
We didn’t win the quiz, but we did win really with the fun night.
Sidenote* who TF knows David Rose’s bank card PIN number (yes PIN number!)
Warmest regards. Happy patrons #28.

Excellent Staff.. The Foods Nice.. The menu could do with some more things on it. Brendan is wonderful, an asset to the Team...
We'd ĹÖVË a traditional Ceasar Salad....
Definitely a Serious Steak Sanga on sour dough.. A T-Bone with salad or veg,, no chip's,maybe Sweet Spud Mash.. A Pork Belly with asian greens.. Definitely bring back the side of Broccoli & Beans... How about Sweetlip Snapper.. Beef & Guiness Pie.. Traditional Garlic Prawns.. Reef & Beef.. Carbonara or A Pasta dish that doesn't cost a fortune & is bang for ya buck... You've gotta put some more Meat options on the menu... Definitely @ a good price.. We've been going elsewhere since the menu change for meals @ good fair prices.. Introduce some more Desserts... Sticky Date with Caramelized Banana & Ice-Cream or Pav... I'm an Ex Head Chef & TBH our last meal was terrible.. We've ALWAYS met our clients for dinner & talked Business... But we find ourselves going to other places now.. The menu is way to Influenced by Vego & Asian Fusion.. We go to a Pub for GÖÖD OLD TUCKER.... Run specials by all means.. But think about your clientele.. I know of a lot of people who aren't happy anymore & thats sad.. Cause you guy's once rocked the Kitchen... Get your people back in.. Do a kids eat free night on a Tuesday.. Cater for people who have had Gastric Sleeve Procedures.. Diabetics.. Advertise Awesome Specials during the week.. Do a Seafood Night with a bonus.. We'd love to see you all again.. We're 10 people who will come back every week if changes are made & fair pricing is introduced... You will make a profit again if you look after your locals again.. Do a $10 Crispy Salt and Pepper Chicken Wing Bucket... That in its self is a MEGA $$$ Maker...
We aren't having ago... Just trying to HELP... Some of us come from Rockingham & Freo... That's what you want again...
Chëër's Team

Not a big pub goer myself but ventured to the Balmoral for lunch. Staff didn't seem overly friendly - food typical pub grub with plenty of options. Big airy oldish building. Noisy music could do with discreetening.
K. L.
Food extremely flavoursom! Good atmosphere and live music Sunday arvo...
J. K.
Brilliant music, great food, awesome location
C.
good atmosphere and great selection of drinks for a local.
B. K.
Brilliant night out. They are handling the covid restrictions very well. We dined in the restaurant section which had such a cool vibe. We were served by a nice young man, big arms and small legs, I think his name was Rhys but I could be wrong. He was onto all of our drinks and had some good suggestions about the food.
The manager (bald guy) was a delight too.
I would highly recommend this place for service, food, prices and a crazy good ambience.
T. M.
Great beer menu
Good service though food was just good
Prices ok
Decor is a little run down now and could use a facelift.... still a great place for a beer in a afternoon
E. H.
Good choice of Beers on tap.
Pleasantly surprise with my pasta dish, it was delicious & generous portion.
Had a live band playing & venue is very welcoming.
Service was pretty good too!
R. F.
I honestly can't remember the last time I went to a Pub,sad as it sounds. I drive past this lovely old Pub frequently,often thinking,if only those walls could talk,for some its probably a good thing they can't. For a late Tuesday night there were a surprising(to me anyway)number of patrons there,sounding like they were enjoying themselves. I was happy to see that it has retained most of its old world character features (if repo then good job) We made our way outside though it was a chilly night,the heaters which are mounted under the umbrellas kept us warm enough to stay for a couple more drinks. Ladies Bathrooms were modern and very clean. I enjoyed myself and I hope to visit again.
D. P.
I love that it is dog friendly on the weekend. The food is good for what it costs. Good customer service.
S. S.
Good vibe, lots of indoor and out door seatings. Pub food, draft beer, large screen for sports(pixelated) and helpful staff.
T. N.
Love the pub hate the food
Need a good Chef with one signature dish
N. H.
Best mojito in town. We went early on Saturday evening and the place was busy. Bar staff served us quickly and were friendly. There is an ATM on the premises, pool table and a nice area out the back, complete with an outside bar. We did not stay for food. Highly recommend this bar for great vibes and great drinks.
T. F.
Went twice now and shared these vegan dishes: kung pao cauliflower, loaded jackfruit fries, sausage rolls, and burger. All absolutely delicious and highly recommended! I think my favourite dish is the cauliflower as it's got the right amount of chilli 🔥 Great selection of drinks too. We will be back again and again!
e. c.
Great job on new year eve. The balmoral is my local and everything there has really improved in the last couple of years. Food and service top notch. I had never had any celebration there before though and New Year’s Eve was really really good. Special mention to our server Rhys. Top bloke who was really good at his job and had a smile on his face all night despite being rushed off his feet.
My one complaint is there was no Jell-O shots as advertised. We asked early on in the night and they said they had run out. This was super disappointing and I feel the bar should have been better prepared considering you knew how many people had booked in.
p.
Easily in my top 3 pubs in perth. Perfect for any time of day except after midnight. Great food and a good selection of beers.
Balmoral if you read this, please bring back the rabbit pie!
L. T.
Great everything...apart from the whitebait. 13 bucks for a handful of crispy guppies from the pet shop!
L. M.
Everytime I go to the Balmoral the service is exceptional, great atmosphere, friendly locals, yummy food and well priced beverages!
One of the managers Troy, noticed we had been in a few times - came over to introduce himself and invite us to some events that where coming up there, its these kind of things make you feel welcomed and apart of the Balmoral family. You cant ask for anything else really. 5/5 - must visit!
T. C.
Had a great night. Good Parmi. A few more umbrellas outside for when its raining would be good for the smaller/quieter tables.
A. C.
The place was not crowded at 12 pm lunchtime. The staff were helpful. My order came quite soon after it was ordered. Rump steak was well done. Overall, a satisfactory main course. It’s a place I come for lunch with work colleagues. Will return again for their steak.
F. T.
Chilled Sunday afternoon vibe, excellent musos, service on bar welcoming and attentive. Food looked great matched with a high number of craft and iconic draught taps. First time here definitely not the last. Absolute gem of a place
J. H.
Dinner for two on Thursday 29th April 2021.
Great service, excellent meals as always but $8.10 for 30 ml of Cinzano Bianco, 30 ml! Could not be changed apparently as it was not on the computer!
L. S.
Great vegan/veg options ( jackfruit burrito for example). We went for dinner and they had fresh oysters for $2; my partner had them and he loved them. Not very gf/coeliac friendly.
A. J.
Child friendly, with several choices of venue: formal, "tavern-style" or outdoors, which was set in a garden-like area, shielded from the public by hedges and shrubbery, a nice touch. Staff were friendly and helpful, providing excellent service and the menu choices were varied enough to please most people. Food was delicious! Children's menu included "Frog in a Pond" (green jelly with a chocolate frog on top) which was a great hit with the junior family members. Happy to go there anytime!

Nice pub. Had a good night here. Good atmosphere. Didnt get food so I cant comment on that. Would definately go again
J. D.
Good live music, fun to have a dance floor.
Shame about the toilets after 10pm. Eeew!
M. L.
Generally balmoral have been okay but the last few times I’ve left disappointed. Undercooked lamb kofta, pathetic hot dog special and a chaotic vegan Nasi Goreng swimming in overly sweet sauce. The pub has great atmosphere but average food. They should focus on having a small selection of dishes that they do well than too many selections that are hit and miss.
O.
Absolutely delicious food and such quick and friendly service! Highly recommend the slow cooked beef, brussel sprouts and the cauliflower.
J. D.
Good pub bit pricey on the food but it's good to watch UFC. Also would be good if they had sound on for fights in the garden area every fight.
l. F.
Good food. I’ve been coming here for years and it’s interesting to see how is has changed.
Tuesday steak and quiz nights are great - but you need to book as it sells out.
Food is quite good, pool table, beer garden and different seating options. Wood fire in winter.
It can be hard to find parking - and you have to pay for street parking so be aware.
J. A.
It's a really nice place with different rooms, beer garden pool table...
Great atmosphere.
The staff is friendly, the food is nice and prices are reasonable.
Also, we really enjoy the quiz night on tuesday nights (need booking).
It's a good pub in Vic Park!
B. M.
Great vegan options. .my nasi goreng was beyond amazing, colourful and full of ingredients. Service top notch too. They actually notice that you need more water on your table!
I. B.
Great atmosphere, friendly staff, and well priced.
P. H.
Great place live music and very friendly staff
T. F.
Good vibe, good atmosphere, unfortunately food was quite average. Not sure how you can make crayfish dull, bland but they sure did :(
J. C.
Always top food here and good nightlife
P. L.
Great atmosphere for a family outing. We were assigned with a dedicated waitress in that area where we sat and she was great all the way. Apart from the usual “how was the food” question, we were treated with great service like clearing plates away ( did not feel they were rushing us to go) and refilling water. Little things counts. Noise was expected as it’s a Pub/Bistro but you can still converse without shouting. Food was bistro as expected and fair vs portion. Salads were huge in serving size. I had the 300gm Rump (medium). it was good with pepper sauce. Overall, recommended.
D. L.
Nice friendly local pub, great food and craft beer selection
B. T.
Great! Lovely staff. Was just here for vegan pizza night with Facebook friends. Must go again to Balmoral soon as they have more vegan options than remember b4. And xmas movies coming up soon also bit of a novelty! Xmas movies at pub not done before.
c. y.
Steak night Tuesdays. Rump chips and salads for only $15.
J. L.
I've decided to checkout the pub again. After a long spell of change after the 90s. It then went down hill from there. Tonight, however, the food was ok, except the PepperSquid, wasn't fresh and small. Steak burger was average and boring. Great idea with the huge screen in the animals bar, to watch the footy, potential there to lure footy fans. I'll return to watch the footy from time to time.
H. S. R.
Good choice of beers on tap, pleasant atmosphere, didn't eat so can't comment on food.
A. P.
My favourite pub! Great weekly specials with food and drinks, and great service! The fact you can take your dogs is a bonus as well.
K. D.
Great food. Fabulous service. Well priced meals. Relaxed vibe. Really enjoyed lunch there today. Thank you.
f. h.
Nice relaxing hotel,stop have an ale plenty to choose from 👍
K.
Good atmosphere. Bar service on night friendly and fast. Pub grub food was also good though we only had light snacks not full meals.
Y. H.
I had a good experience having dinner. Very friendly staff and pleasant atmosphere. I could see every patrons were also enjoying their time. I had pork belly burger and it was crispy and very tasty to the last bite that I couldn't eat anymore.
L. G.
Busy vibrant pub, On a Saturday probably not somewhere for a quiet dinner but great for gathering with friends. Extremely accommodating with a lot of choice for drinks, food and vegan dishes.
M. C.
Nice pub. Friendly staff
R. S.
Good food, and they’re now dog friendly (bring your own dog bowls and treats though) so you can enjoy a drink with your furbaby by your side. The wait staff are very friendly and happy to see the pets too. Best area I found was the back garden as it’s a bit quieter and a leashed dog can snorfle around without getting in peoples way. The food portions for the sharing plates are pretty huge, which is nice for the prices. Good range of beer in bottles, taps aren’t as diverse but still good choices.
Y. F.
Great pub, good food, good company, lovely staff. One guy even stood in the rain when opening up the back gate for us so we could have quicker access to the back carpark with our baby in the pram, during a downpour. Top bloke!
L. M.
Love this place with all my heart. It’s a great venue with great food and a variety of different drinks on offer. The place has a great atmosphere which could serve as a good place for a date or catch up with mates/friends. It does get busy during the evenings but for good reason - it’s a great pub.
R. B.
Great little spot for a drink and some food. They have a good menu and really friendly staff. Typical pub vibe
S. B.
Great atmosphere. Good music and friendly staff. Heaps of great little spots to sit and have a great night. Good range of beers on tap.
It gets crowded pretty quick and there's usually a section reserved for someone's function. The menu looks really good. There's a few standard pub grub entries but quite a lot of really creative, above average looking options too.
T. D.
Very pleasant establishment with a good vibe about the place, nice for a quick drink or dine in and enjoy the atmosphere.
J.
We went there for our friends Birthday, great meals. The beer we wanted they only had one bottle, that was disappointing. The music was loud, we had to yell at one another to talk. We had fun though 😊
M. P.
Friendly atmosphere great space and good outdoor spaces
C. R.
The hotel was very busy, being father's day, and quite noisy with live music alongside the dining areas. Apart from this, the food was plentiful and tasty. The service was very good and very fast considering the amount of diners. On the whole, I'd probably go back but at a time when the hotel was much less busy.
S. N.
Took a while to order our meals, needed more staff in dining area. Meals came out quick. Loved the Kung Pao cauliflower and arancini was great. Jackfruit burrito was tasteless. Chicken parmi crumb was almost nonexistent and small.
A. R.
It was great to catch-up with friends and family.. food and service was really good..
V. L.
This bar is very nice and quite special... I went to a drink & draw with wrist Tankateo and it was so nice... For 50aud you have a glass upon arrival, nibbles and a 2h workshop with the artist... What great value for money and also the opportunity to do something different so big thumbs up Balmoral hotel
L. D.
What amazing staff! I flew from Sydney to catch up with family and friends, Dan and the team at the Balmoral made my night perfect!
Great spot on the veranda , the best customer service and food to rave about. Nothing was lacking and I appreciate you all for making my night amazing 💕
S. H.
Attended private function upstairs. It was a good space because it had a covered verandah as well where the kids could move around .Tasty food platters .
L. M.
brilliant place. Had a fantastic Saturday night. Packed to the rafters with fast food service and fast serving bar. Great job guys definitely highly recommend.
B. M.
Great vibe, awesome food.
The staff were friendly and incredibly attentive and looked like they were having fun at work.
(Nikki - supervisor was terrific! )
I don't go out much but it was a great evening and a great place to catch up with friends.
P. B.
Quirky. Good ambience. Loved the vegan and tofu Thai dish I had. My friend who is a meat eater raved about it and even took a photo of the ingredients. Can't get much better than that.
A. B.
Great pub. Excellent food and attentive staff. Lovely verandah area outside - really enjoyable spot for a Summer evening.
Only dampner on the night was the $60 parking fine scored by parking right outside the pub (on the side street). Really, City of Vic Park, who should have to pay for parking after 6pm on a week night!!
Hotel patrons beware - read the Parking Signs carefully!
P. W.
Really good pub. Great range of beers and food reasonably priced. Ambience warm and friendly staff usually great! Tuesday is Quiz night (and steak night!,!)
D. T.
Great vibe. Awesome value and a lovely place to kick back and either have a meal / drink in the beer garden or head inside for casual or formal dining. Very dog friendly with water and free treats for the dogs.
R. J.
Monday parmy and pint meal is good value, chips were a little cold and no salad. Tuesday's rump steak turned up maybe 3 minutes after I ordered it which was great but the cut was very chewy, still decent value. Beers are steep in price otherwise nice place to catch a drink in the afternoon.
D. K.
Just had a beer but the menu looked diverse with steaks and the usual fayre plus some vegan and vegetarian options. Friendly bar staff.
J. H.
Good quiz night amd cheap steaks
B. K.
Awesome atmosphere & is pet friendly🥰
5stars for the ambience, only ordered hot chips and they were super crisp! Food that was bought out to other tables looked delicious.
Plus outside they have dog treats and water bowls for your pet which is a massive plus !
B. P.
Great staff great atmosphere. Just haven't the opportunity to try the food if it's a solid 5 star YET.
A. H.
Always a great place to share a meal or a few beverages with new friends, old friends and partners alike.
The food is always well cooked, the alcohol well priced and the atmosphere welcoming.
M. T.
Fine establishment which has a great choice of beer! Plenty to choose from and always a beer of the month on at a special price. Only had the pulled pork fried but tonnes came out and was proper tasty. Heard it's pretty rocking on a Friday/Saturday!
U. E.
Good local well known Hotel, great live music venue, often, good service, big servings, excellent selection of beer's, little bit bogan culture..
S. R.
An excellent steak sandwich. Very good selection of craft beers. And plenty of screens showing various sports.
V. L.
Great old very traditional WA pub. Lunch Menue simple with good choice. Vegiterian options also.
e. L.
Great place to relax and just have a beer with mates. Nice music and crowd.
R. H.
Huge area with great food, loved that the outside was dog friendly. Drink choices were a little more limited than other areas and trying to park close to here can be a huge pain but is usually worth it. Loved the back outdoor area more than inside or the front, would recommend people visit here.
C. M.
Very helpful and friendly staff. The "Backyard" is a fantastic place for ... "gathering of friends" ... friends, food and drinks - what could be better. Ben and his staff were very helpful with the extra trimming that we wanted to use. I'd go back there, even just for a casual meal and/or drink.
N. C.
Great lunch with friends. The staff are so friendly. The menu is the best. The food was yummy.
Great parking as well. Will be back soon.
P. T.
It's my local. I love this place. The new beer garden out the back if fantastic with the big screen. Sometimes service can be a bit average in peak times but that's to be expected. Also can't say the food is an attraction. We give it a shot every menu change and sometimes just some snacks but we always end up going somewhere else to eat as it's never up to scratch.
Over all great place for a few drinks with friends.
T. H.
Service is great in bar and resturant.
Food was great considering the kitchen was soon to close. Wasn't rushed to get out. A good relaxing atmosphere.
Bar is great. Cold beer and live music, what more do you want. Staff are great and seating area in back provides a very comfortable drinking spot. Makes it a lot easier to sit, relax and catch up with friends.
D. D. (.
I enjoyed the atmosphere at this pub. A vibe that fits in well with the 30+ age group. This pub has an old world charm about it. A time old favourite with locals and travellers alike. A varying assortment of finger food available on request as well as cocktails galore.
T. T.
Had a fun night music keeps the rhythm flowing, the drinks kept coming and what a delightful crowd definately a night spot for locals and out of towners!
Tiffany 🙂
B. G.
The Balmoral has always been a good fun pub. I had a pretty decent parmi and the atmosphere on a Sunday arovo is relaxed but with plenty of people. A safe place to bring the kids and dogs. The only thing I would like to see is a larger option of interesting tap beers.
D. M.
One of my favourite bars in Vic Park and has been for some time. The beers are well priced, the food is great and the quiz night is good fun.
L. M.
Went to lunch today with my family. The meals were absolutely delightful, the surrounds were so relaxing, and we didn’t finish the meals because they were really big.
Best laksa I’ve ever had. Highly recommend it!
V. W.
Fantastic lunch today: yummy food: excellent presentation: good coffee: attentive staff and all round great atmosphere
Thank you: so pleased we chose this venue for our special gathering :)
M.
I always enjoyed my food here and it was great to hear good live music while having delicious food.
But i have to say i was a little disappointed that the NEW band did not perform well during Wednesday night, 29/05/2019.
Sorry:( the singer's voice was annoying for me.
A. M.
Good atmosphere, friendly staff. I'd happily go back.
L. S.
Nothing like your local! Felt home from the moment I walked in a few years ago, pet friendly and cold beers. What more could you want!
D. E.
Stopped in for lunch. The menu was extensive and the food was good. Place was tidy and clean. Staff were pleasant and friendly, but there wasn't enough for such a big venue.
C. C.
Always love the service here. Very good vibe. Nice venue. Pretty friendly to smokers. There quiz nights are fun. The food is really good. Could easily become anyone's favourite local.
D. C.
Best pub in East Vic Park. They change beers tap selection every week and offer deals every day. The beergarden is amazing and is dog friendly. Live music every weekend! Don’t miss it!
Y. R.
Food was good. Staff not very friendly, perfunctory.
Was nice setting outside. Enjoyable over all. I'd return.
Great if all you're after is a beer.
C. c. D.
Took our clients to the pub for Lunch boys had fish n chips yumo today and they were treated with dignity and respect
by Sean Thankyou Sean this does not always happen But they can't wait to go again 😊😊😊😊😊
M. C.
Had a great experience here, and the food/beer was very good. Management are friendly and clearly have a great rapport with their staff as well as mucking in where necessary. The atmosphere is relaxed and friendly, the ambience is warm and the prices are fair. Worth a punt!
D. W.
Awsome atmosphere jaks were spot on. Best pub burger ive ever gotten. But the patty was still abit pink in the middle that i didnt like but it was like 2 inches thick lol and still tasted good. Also serving of chips was preety small. If patty was cooked proply i wouldve gone 5 stars for sure.
Y. W.
Food is always terrific, with a good range of craft beers to choose from. Great joint!
D.
Good pub food! Couldnt finish the steak sandwich as it was so big, the first time I tried this place. Second time I had the parmi and it was delicious! Nice setting..can sit outside in the beer garden or inside. It has its own car park at the back!
K. L.
We had the best evening meal, it was the atmosphere, the service, prices, and the food was equally as yummy! Definitely enjoyed by family and "date night" diners. Parking was ample, and the other areas of the hotel catered for after dinner entertainment, also available for the general public. In the back there is a lovely outdoor setting, allowing for dogs and their owners, and public, for drinks and listening to the music audible from inside the pub. An absolutely wonderful evening was had by all of the patrons that I had perused!!
D. J.
Great night. Quick service from the bar staff. Couldn't fault the food. The Bubble and squeak was full of flavour with a great variety of veggies. The smoky chicken skewers with blue cheese sauce was an unexpectedly perfect blend of flavours.
R. G.
Eaten here a few times for dinner and never disappointed with the food or the service. Always got a table even when busy. However had the displeasure of going here for breakfast on Sunday and totally different. Staff had the I don't want to be here attitude, then the coffee came out. Coffee was made with long life milk. Took it back and ask for fresh milk. The answer was "we're a pub with good beer and not a coffee shop". I was flawed! If you want to open for breakfast then do it right without the attitude or leave it to Dome across the road. Never again will we go there for breakfast
A. S. (. f.
Some decent craft beer on tap, plus the usual big guys on tap. Good atmosphere and an open airy space. Service was okay but not amazing. Didn't get a chance to try the meals but other guests we were with said the selection and quality was great.
D. O.
Appreciate the effort of putting on the vegan grub over the weekend 🌱
G. H.
Great atmosphere and drink selection. Pleasant staff. Pulled pork spring rolls are quite nice. Shame about the mediocre and overpriced pizza. Too much cheese to hide the lack of main topping (in this case, meatballs). Probably worth $5 out of the $24 price.
J. M.
Great atmosphere, enjoyed excellent pub food beside a warm fire and sampled some of the range of craft tap beers, ciders even a ginger ale. Nice garden bar, family friendly.
J. W.
Great atmosphere, great food beers cold what more could you ask for lol
T. W.
Service was good and extremely polite. The beer was cold and the food came out fast and was really nice.
e. g.
A bit pricy, but nice food and 🍷
R. F.
went on Saturday for lunch was easy to get a table menu had great selection of vegan vegaterian food. had the prawn laksa from the special menu and it was AMAZING 👏👏 to the person that made it. need to keep an eye on the homeless doing the prowl threw the front area tho. will be back for sure
M. O.
Best local pub in Vic Park! Staff are always friendly and there's never a lack of fun times. Great crowd and not an over-influx of pro-PC men who dress like women.
R. H.
Nice and relaxed for a lengthy mid-week lunch, reasonably priced and a fairly varied menu.
Good range of beers on tap, I'd forgotten how good Kilkenny actually is.
J. W.
We booked a table for 80th birthday . Alowed to bring table balloons and a cake. No cakage, AND they decorated the cake with the candles I had in the bag!!! Food delicious. Fast service, and bill splitting a breeze. Love this place!!! Thankyou Balmoral!
T. M.
Went on a Sunday arvo to watch the football and the atmosphere out the back couldn't have been better. Huge screen with a live 2 piece playing good pub tunes at a level that still made talking easy.
There were a few families there with small kids a fair number of groups of 20 & 30 somethings and even a few of the older set I even saw someone bring in their small dog for a bit.
I left around 4pm and the back was busy without feeling uncomfortable and everyone seemed to be having a great time.
When the weather is fine it is an ideal place for a Sunday session.
S. M.
Staff very polite and attentive. Good atmosphere. Servings are generous. Excellent selection for those with dietary requirements. Kung Pow Cauliflower was great.
C. L.
This bar has a little something for everyone, quiz nights, live music, decent bar with a bit of a sports section going on and a return on the other side of the bar. They have a good range of beers and aren't too overpriced. The food from the restaurant was really good particularly the pulled pork burger. The biggest pain is parking around this area; it's near impossible. Either get in early or be prepared to walk!
D. B.
Great food, great beers, great variety of seating areas inside and out.
B. J.
Beautiful Old Aussie Pub. Well worth a visit.
G. T.
They do a really good quiz night. Good is good. Drinks are more expensive than most places though.
K.
Great place for some food and a drink.
P. S.
Nice vibe! Great affordable menu. Specials were good with steak and ribs! Perfect size meal. More attention to the outside for smokers would be great!
D. W.
We love the Balmoral - old world charm with a fantastic beer garden out the back, cosy restaurant out the front and a verandah area for laid back catch ups with good friends. Throw in a great food and beverage menu with enthusiastic staff members and you have one excellent pub in Vic Park that you'll keep going back to.
R. P.
Friendly staff. Early Tuesday beers.... Great.
E. C.
Awesome well cooked food. I ordered rump and ribs. Tender and moist. Others ordered fish n chips and pasta dish. Both also enjoyed. Good prices and service. Live music. Clean restooms.
J. K.
Great pub, but since the menu change food has gone downhill!
J. R.
It's a pub. The food is a bit too pricey for what it is, there isn't that much choice, even for drinks, and it's quite loud. At the end of the day though, you can have a drink and a feed so it's not that bad
T. P.
Gone in 40 minutes.
37 minutes was all it took to eat our food, turn down a free dessert, and leave.
In search of the perfect parmy, I found myself at another pub eating a warm'ish meal.
I don't like to send back food as I always feel rude, but my partner asked if I was happy with it, and as I was not I requested a fresh one.
The second one came out, but once again it was just average. No love had gone into the creation of the dish.
My partners meal had stale bread filled with the contents of a steak sandwich. Again, not much love.
Thanks for the hospitality, girls were apologetic and offered a refill of our drinks or a dessert. Next time I come here will only be for beer.
T. W.
Always love going to the Bal, it has a great atmosphere and the staff are always freindly.
The meals there are always well cooked, presented and come out in a timely manner. They have a great variety of dishes and i havent had a bad meal there yet.
G. G.
This place is okay the food is good the staff are friendly its like the set of home and away.
don't bother going there to watch the football on what would be the perfect big screen out the back in the beer garden the only problem is you can't hear the game because instead they play music like ed Sheeran probably best suited for when ever Eddie maqurie is commintating so you don't need to hear him fondonling the balls of any Victorian team playing against any western side.
T.
Really great atmosphere, upstairs was absolutely lovely and wasn't too loud, service was amazing also. Really recommend if you're planning on having a good night with good people
C. L.
My favourite Vic Park local!
C. W.
Good selection of beers on tap, filling pizza, reasonably priced and inventive cocktails. The staff are also very friendly and professional, you never have to wait too long and they somehow always seem to know the order people arrived at the bar.
L. C.
Great vibe, great service and the food is awesome!!
E. P.
Great variety of draught beers, nice beer garden, also inside quite nice. A smoker's corner is available in the garden. Good food offers on special.
R. E.
Excellent food and staff but we were stuck outside with smokers and vapers because of a planned event that evening.
H. T.
Just had the lambshank roast for lunch - great food - large serve
M. W.
Good Aussie pub. Excellent staff. On Sunday had a lovely steak here whilst watching the footy. An above average duo play an old skool Sunday sesh mix...Creedence, Beatles and even Sublime. Well worth a look.
D. N.
serving both pub food and table service so there is a variety of xhoice for food. having had the pub food i would state it was better quality then that up to restaurant food..Ordering the rump steak for $15 was excellent value, piping hot and very quick. A great location and the food was filling superb. Well worth a visit if you are in Victoria Park area
D. G.
Great Christmas Day lunch there yesterday. Great food, excellent friendly service & lovely decorations. 10 out of 10 for sure. Well done to Management and Staff
N. D.
Good selection of craft and mainstream beers
The beer garden in the back is with a visit
C. J.
Its good place to catch up for a drink. It has huge places inside and outside with good vibes. But It's not my favorite place because foods were not that impressive...I just re ommend couple of drinks here.
D. B.
Order right at your table with QR code
C. D.
Great atmosphere for Sunday session. The local band "Akoustic" were playing great songs putting the patrons in a lively mood. Our 2 meals, squid and vegan pad thai, were both very nice along with 2 pints and 2 ,very generous, baskets of chips and drinks for the kids all for $85. Couldn't fault it.
S. S.
Our local, been coming here for years! Been up and down in the past but the current management are doing wonders for the place with great music, a good selection of beers on tap & a menu that has something on it for everyone.
E. R.
Local pub, food is always served quick and is absolutely perfect every time. Always a good crowd and live bands make weekends a rowdy night if you want one. Love it!
C.
Had the Baramundi which was half of a fillet and overcooked. The steack with mushrooms sauce was very blend with a complementary hair in the middle of it. For the plus, the aranchini balls were really tasti and the staff very nice !
R. G.
Great vibe... accompanied with yummy food and a nice Carlton Dry on tap 😉
C. D. (.
Sunday breakfast was shared here with family and long time friends. Sat outside in great patio area, plenty of seating, great service, yummy food.
Plenty of parking.
S. P.
Staff and service was great. Meals were the worst I have had there. Will wait a while and give it another shot later.
L. M.
Lovely spot for a pitcher of beer. Reasonable prices and good size portioned meals. Captivating service and a fantastic, relaxed atmosphere.
J. F.
not good service had to return our meals
K. a. S. V. a. A. V. P.
Food good, if a little on the pricey side but there is a great choice of beers that are not your standard pub types. A word to management...Happy Hour is actually meant to be 60 minutes not 45!
S. L.
About 4 or 5 taps aimed at craft beer, otherwise mostly mass produced offerings. Cool vibe inside, like the exposed brick and wooden floors. Out the back for the footy is always a good on the big screen.
Food was fresh and tasty, prices may be a little bit high but overall a good local haunt
m. b. 3.
Good local pub, good atmosphere, nice beer garden with very large screen for sports. The only thing that lets it down is the food is not good, a lot of it is premade frozen, even the 20$ pizza.
C. S.
Favourite pub.
Great chilled vibe, often have a nice band on. Food is great and beer garden is dog friendly with treats available.
R. P.
Ain't nothing matter when you're in good company,
The food is yum.

Love this place with all my heart. It’s a great venue with great food and a variety of different drinks on offer. The place has a great atmosphere which could serve as a good place for a date or catch up with mates/friends. It does get busy during the evenings but for good reason - it’s a great pub.

Burnt burger
R. V.
Decent pub food and drinks, what you'd expect from a pub. Staff were great with the dining service.
M. W.
Not bad for a pub but the food was not that great. Still a good place for a drink tho.
P. F.
Really top quality food (rump and ribs special was sensational, and only $25!), good selection of beers, and the pub quiz bonus of finishing 3rd too - $25 voucher. Paid for my meal 😊
t. c.
Superb Christmas lunch great service
J. G.
I consider the Balmoral my local when I'm in Perth. Always a great atmosphere with a very nice layout of the indoor dining, Bar, and pool table area. Live bands on all the 'main' nights every week. Two outdoor areas, one behind the venue the other in front parallel to the footpath. Plenty of different seating options indoors and outdoors to cater for however many people your group contains.
M. H.
Great old timey pub, live music, decent drink selection, and one of the most classic pubs in Perth. What is there to fault?
R.
Nice spot in a function room upstairs. Overall it was clean, service from the bar was good.
a. j.
Cabbage In the urinal and coke in the bathroom, beautiful venue!
M. P.
The wait staff were very friendly and responsive. My steak which I had asked for medium rare, more rare than medium, was more like medium well done. Other than that beautiful.... Cheers....
K. H.
I was here on a busy Sunday but was still terribly disappointed and wont be visiting again for a meal. There was a table of 4 of us. Although we were very excited to see 4 new vegan meal options on the menu... thats as far as the excitement went. We waited 50 minutes for our meals and they were really disappointing. My "chicken" parmigiana looked sad to say the least. The chips were stone cold and it really did look like something u might get on a cheap kids menu. Unfortunately the "avocado salad" it came with was actually garden salad with 3 small 1cm cube pieces of avocado. I questioned the waitress about the salad, to which she offerred to bring me another. We figured this meant the kitchen got the salad wrong, but a few mins later she returned with... the exact same salad and no explaination. I paid something like $22 for this. Another in our group got the eggplant curry but left half of the eggplant uneaten as it was raw. Another's burger was served with tomato when it was requested without and confirmed with the waitress upon placing our order. positives? the drinks (lemon, lime and bitters, white wine and beers) we affordable, served quickly and tasty hense the 3 star rating. If I were just waiting the food... it would be 2/5.
N. W.
I love this Pub. Many different seating areas to cater to different preference; regular live music, great staff, capable of hosting functions well, an awesome atmosphere, can't fault the Balmoral.
N. C.
My friend Dr Drumend and my other mate Mr Thornberg go to this pub semi-regularly. It's a fantastic little spot with great beers, and enjoyable locals. The food is pretty good as well. I've only had one suspicious encounter in the men's bathroom where a man who's nickname was "Demon" was urinating and missing the urinal. All in all however, this is a stellar pub.

Nice garden. Great atmosphere. Superb staff. Food is good, some may find portion sizes too large though.

They currently have a Mixed Grill on the specials list, it's one of the best mixed grills I've ever eaten and doesn't cost a fortune. I'll back again very soon. Get it on the normal menu asap, please.

Omg, $10 Bacon, Eggs and Coffee on Sundays. I was expecting wonder white bread and filter coffee for that price but I was dead wrong. Serving sizes were huge and food was very decent

Food here is hit and miss. had the sliders once which were good. but stay away from the parmi which is average at best. Wife enjoyed the chicken salad.
great place to have a beer on a sunny arvo. equally good at night as there are plenty of heaters out the front to keep you warm.

The place is designed so well. It seems to attract very relaxed types. No hassles. All types are accepted and its near some of the best local restaurants I've found. It's a winner.

Went on a Tuesday night and ordered a special under $20 which was great value. Our host Jamie was the best host I'd experienced here too, he was very prompt and well mannered.

The food not as good as usual.. prob pick a wrong day.
Now they remove the fireplace to fit in more table, a shame really that was the attraction in winter time

Given the snap lockdown, they handled it excellently and still made us feel welcome.

Friendly atmosphere. Fairly well sheltered beer gardens. Live bands and live sports played inside. Very nice place to sink a couple of cheeky brews on a Sunday arvo! :)

Good beer garden, decent food, friendly service. My favourite Vic Park pub.
D. B.
Better than I would expect from a pub. I was there with two other people and we all enjoyed our food. The pricing was reasonable and there was a lot of seating available.
N. M.
Great atmosphere, the food is good, friendly staff. Only issue is when you're there near closing time the security staff get really rude herding people outside early. I get why they do it, but it makes a pretty unwelcoming feeling when you drop in for a quick drink after 11

Brilliant old pub in East Victoria Park that has been done up nicely. Huge beer garden with big screen, big beer selection on tap, friendly staff and great pub grub.
B. b.

Great courtyard. Dog friendly. Decent drink selection. Never have to wait too long for bar service. Restaurant is crowded but good value for money.

Good service, prices and location, though strangely had "run out" of a lunch menu item when we went to order at 11.30am on a Friday morning...? *shrug* the pork belly I quickly picked on the spot after that was really good though
T. V.
Great food. The meals are massive too, even the kids meal was huge. We're coming back for a lunch tomorrow as well now!!
H. B.

Expensive beer $10.20 A pint (small glass ) ??? Nice pub but won't be back

It has a great atmosphere in the beer garden, also has the sports on the big screen and it is also kid friendly. Great food aswell
E. M.
Nice adltmosphere and plenty of motorcycle parking nearby makes this a great spot for a wind - down pint.
Unfortunately they stopped serving the monster burger they had which had toasted sandwiches instead of bread, but I can learn to forgive them.
Nice selection of drinks on tap, as well as attentive staff makes waiting at the bar a pleasure instead of a frustration.
J. h.
Service was very good, but food was not the best, have had a lot better food before covid-19 thought if anything food would be better due to the capacity allowed in the venue
R. G.
Good food, great atmosphere and cheap prices. Beer was cold and staff were friendly. Busy but not crowded.
