Food was average at best, bruschetta served on stale bread. Staff didn’t even look at us whilst ordering. Only positive experience was the bar.

Customer service is atrocious. Walked around for 5minutes trying to figure out if I need to find my own seat or where a menu is as there was no visible signage. When I waited at the bar to speak to someone the girl that served me was very unenergetic and looked as though she didn't want to be there. Ended up walking out and won't be returning again.

I had the Mexican Parma and it was delicious. My husband had the Beef Burger, it was also delicious. The staff were very helpful and friendly. Will definitely be back.

While buying drinks lady serving me thought it was ok to ignore me yet have a friendly conversation with the local.
Zero acknowledgment and zero customer service skills.
Smile! It’s free…. Or atleast acknowledge them.when a customer says hi you reply or if the customer say thank you, you respond when a customer says goodbye you respond to them not the bloke sitting 10
Meters away!

Service and food low grade steaks had no taste at all and cold.

Caught the car ferry across from Sorrento to Queenscliff. Beautiful relaxing Monday night. $25 steak night and cooked to perfection! So nice sitting around the enclosed fire with a drink in hand. Highly recommended!

One staff member refused me meal service as I was 4 minutes late after bistro orders closed. (I actually tried to order pre closing time at the usual bistro counter and I was redirected to a busy front bar hence my slightly later order time. Thankfully I asked another staff member Mary who was so kind to check with the chef if he could prepare a final single meal even though I was slightly over the closed kitchen time. Chef agreed and I got nice warm meal on a cold coastal night.
Local Queenscliff businesses are struggling, why would you turn any customer away at 8.34pm is crazy, when local businesses are struggling during winter. Its quality staff Mary & Chef that will keep these sort of businesses alive.

Meal portion was very generous, very tasty and great value.
Highly recommended

Had the Pork Belly. Was surprised at the very small serving - could really have passed as an Entre, instead of a Main. Left there hungry and ended up grabbing some thing from somewhere else afterwards. I think they were trying to replicate a Fine Dining experience, despite being fundamentally a Pub. Got it wrong, very wrong.

Great pub offering a huge range of beers.
A good stop before or after the ferry crossing.

On request from the owner.

We have visited the Queenscliff Brewhouse for several years. I considered the pub as a solid country pub with a classic menu of food offerings and locally brewed beers. The serving size of food is generous and beer are average at best (please refer to Untapped it RateBeer).

Recently the quality of the food seems to be reduced. Both the meat seems to be of a lower quality (E.g. Chicken Parma, steak) and the kitchen consistently served us cold food. I don't expect inner city, high-end quality food at a pub like this, but the current experiences have been subpar.

Very average food. Friendly staff and nice pub. The ham on my chicken Parma was thicker than the chicken. Over cooked chips and cold salmon.

We were finishing a beautiful day and holiday today, when put to a vote pub, bakery or fast food the pub votes won, we rocked up completely unaware and ablutions that this was a brewery until I try to order a Guinness and the publican looked at me and kindly replied we have our own brand we ordered the papaya salad, pulled pork burger, Mexican Parmigiana and a steak. They were all fabulous the steak was perfect and the Guacamole was really nice, but to be honest the best part of the whole meal was the gin cocktail (I am unsure of its name) I asked for dealers choice and he (a lovely Frenchman) ask a few questions on flavour choices and continued to make magic in his shaker, when he was finished it looked amazing as a shaken layered drink with little pepper berries on top. It made my mums day that he came and asked if she was enjoying it. We ended up buying a bottle of pink gin as a souvenir present to ourselves for later?

I am absolutely amazed! It was such a treat to order a Parmigiana That tasted like real chicken and was plump, vegetables were blanched to perfection! Really good atmosphere, clean, quiet and an all-round great night. Disabled facilities were really easy to use, access was great… We will be back for date night

Great place, lovely staff. Currently under renovation but hoping to be back in full October 2022.

Didn't try the good but what I saw didn't resemble the microwave horror tales I'd read

Amazing food. Me and all of my friends really enjoyed the food. Especially calamari and fish and chips cooked perfectly. Thank you chef inshane for amazing food. Lovely environment and good service. Definitely, we will visit again.

This establishment misses the mark. We bought the four different gins to taste the distillery produce and ordered food from the limited menu. Unfortunately they failed to provide a fine eating experience to accompany the exceptionally fine gin. A fundamental dish such as nachos can be served as a quality dish. This establishment served a meal of canned tomatoes and cheese from a bottle (I can only assume). Unedible! Such a missed opportunity. Carefully and quietly provided feedback was dismissed. Owners clearly have a pub mentality but seek high class customers. Dont bother

Good value for money food and great drinks. The seniors special menu from Monday to Friday is particularly well priced.

A good range of brews. Tried several pints and one stubby, the Helles. Everyone matched their beer notes. BUT, the full flavour was completely lost because they were served at freezing temperatures. I bought two in advance so they would warm up a bit. Much better. Several beers I observed being poured came with little or no head. Too cold. It's a real shame. PLEASE serve your beer one or two degrees warmer. It's not a summer heatwave. It's winter! There is gin. The place is FULL of merch. Over the top.
