Commercial Hotel

Really good roast lamb and veggies, and friendly staff. Most tables were precooked on a Wednesday night. That says a lot!

Fantastic country pub. We came here for fathers day lunch and it didn't disappoint! The staff are friendly and helpful. The meals were hot, fresh, and great value for money. We will definitely be back! The fish and chips, chicken parmigiana, and the spaghetti were all amazing!

Unfortunately the 2 worst parmas I’ve ever had have been in Ballan, this one was average to say the least. One side was good despite the tasteless cheese, but the bottom wasn’t crunchy at all, it was soggy. I’m no chef but it’s really not hard to cook a schnitzel that’s crunchy on both sides. Also I was asked twice within 2 minutes by the young staff if I’d finished my meal, the second time when the guy asked I said I’d just been asked so he just repeated himself. Won’t be back in a hurry.

Fantastic service from the lady on Sunday night 25th June. Flat out and doing it alone but with a smile.

Really enjoyed the food, although contrary to the usual findings, I found the meal which was very reasonably priced and very tasty, was too much for me, that's very unusual.

Excellent meals for our group of 4, and good value. Very friendly service also. Highly recommend.

OVER THE LAST 12 MONTHS THE MEAL'S I HAVE HAD AT THE COMMERCIAL HAVE BEEN EXTRAORDINARY, VERY GOOD SIZED MEAL'S OR SALAD OR VEGETABLES, CHIPS MAKE IT COMPLETE.

Had Roast of the day (Pork) Such a big meal well worth it. We enjoyed. Fantastic. Good customer service. Thank you

Rock solid county pub (no damn pokies), had a mate of mine stay over and we went for a stroll up to the Commersh. We were both really happy with the trip. A few customers were having counteries for lunch and the food looked tip top as well (we didn't eat so going on look and smell alone). I'm not going to drink in a pub by myself but if I've got mates visiting up here in Ballan we'd definitely go back to the Commercial.

Great food service & reasonable prices as usual but the casual rural atmosphere always makes it a pleasure. Yes I am a repeat customer

Locals front bar - lots of character. Food is really tasty and an extensive dining room. Bit of a wait but understandable on a busy Saturday. Service is really good. Thoroughly recommend.

I love small town pub food, and the food here is a perfect example of why. Generous servings and deliciously tasty, friendly staff and a great pub bistro atmosphere. My burger was juicy and fresh and the chips were nice and crunchy.

Yum eggplant parma and sticky date pudding. Chips standard. Staff, service and atmosphere were outstanding. Friday night - fun band, people dancing, locals have friendly chats to us blow ins. Highly recommended.

Not very impressed with this venue unable to get a cup of tea or coffee with meals. My snitzel was dry and tough redeemed themselves with the banana fritter. They need to train waiting staff to use coffee machine

Excellent and Perfectly cooked meals. Fantastic, friendly service. What a delightful surprise find! Even let us have our dog with us in her crate in the outside area, lifesaver as she needs constant supervision for a health problem. We'll be back! ️

This place is really good went to the bistro tonight and had the steak and the wife had the chicken Parma, both meals we're beautiful the steak was perfectly cooked had plenty of flavour and the chicken Parma was really nice as well and really friendly service too, highly recommend this place to anyone, I will definitely be becoming a regular visitor

The food was good. One of the wait staff was phenomenal (the one with the glasses) and one I actually wonder what we did to offend her that she basically spoke to us like we were imposing on her by wanting to eat there.

Great service. The waiter's are next level and the food was spot on. First time the kids have actually finished their plates.

Great Parma! Real decent piece of actual chicken breast, with generous crumbing, good sauce and plenty of cheese, cooked perfectly (juicy inside crunchy outside) and very reasonably priced too!
Service was really good too. Will stop here again for food

Had probably one of if not the best Parma of my life here. Check out the photos. Generous serving, good pricing and service. I’ll be back one day
