The Timboon Pub And Hotel

The service was slow, the food was awful, the chicken Parma was mushy and I ended up with food poisoning, thanks for putting me off the one thing that I liked, and thanks for making me miss out on$345 days pay for the long weekend

Great find. Great pub food, friendly staff Etc. Etc. The “usual” Pub review. We had a pizza supreme. Really nice, made with “fresh”ingredients. We could hear the chef cutting up the ingredients in the kitchen. If in the area, definitely worth stopping in for lunch.

We were very disappointed with our experience at this country pub. My close friend, his 2 kids and myself with my daughter left Melbourne around 16H30 on Friday and headed inland towards Hamilton. When we got there our table was ready and waiting along with a very lovely young lass who greeted us with a warm country welcome. My friend went to get us all some drinks with the rest of us perused the menu. What a fantastic choice. The food was amazing and the service was above what we expected. We highly recommend this pub (9/10). The next pub meal was at Koriot pub, which had the more country feel to it. They also took good care of us. However, in Timboon we were made to feel like real outsiders or intruders from the moment we were "sent" to our table to the time we left. There were errors on the menu that weren't corrected, things that weren't available, but not indicated and important information like the sauces that go with the stakes were on the wrong side of the menu. One example is that I tried to order the scotch fillet steak, but they don't sell it. They only do porterhouse steak. Apparently it was a "typo", which could easily be corrected by a thin white sticker and porterhouse steak written instead. The meals came out in dribs and drabs. My meal came last more than 15 mins after the first meal was dumped on the table. There were only 4 other tables occupied in the dinning room with a total of 11 other people being served, all locals as it was obvious because the staff knew most of them by name. When my meal was dumped in front of me a few of my fries ended up on the table. The "green salad" was in a small sauce bowl with 4 small cubes of potato salad (potatos and mayonnaise), 1 segment of tomato and a few little pieces of lettuce that had been broken up to make the bowl look "full". There were no condiments on the table, no tomato sauce given or offered for the kids or our chips and no sauce or mustard for my steak. The stingy amout of fries was surprising and quite frankly rude. My friends burger was dry and very bland. Same problem with the fries. He still felt hungry when he had eaten what he thinks was more a kids meal than an adults. Not much and no taste. I went to the kitchen to get some sort of sauce or mustard for my steak and I was barked at by the kitchen staff to go back to my table. The young grubby looking cook yelled out "someone will get something in a minute. " A few minutes later when my steak had gone cold and the kids were wanting their icecream I was brought American mustard in a dirty (the nozzle had crusty mustard plastic squeeze bottle

Bloody excellent pub meals. Thank you for an awesome feed.old skool pub here. What a gem.
Highly Recommend. And nice to see a good TASTY salad with a bit of pasta salad. YES. LOVED THAT

Food is value for money but I would not go out of my way to eat here again. I would look to try something new

Usually go the parma.went the flake with salad instead.pasta in the salad is not salad! But still worth a look.

I ordered my meal the same time as the other six people on my table, they had all finished there meal before I got mine. Not going back.
