Carrington Bowling Club Co-operative Limited reviews
5 Star Review by Gary Harford
Great venue with good service, awesome selection of craft beer, dog friendly and an American style dinner. Personally I loved the outdoor picnic tables, live music and $15 jugs of craft beer when I came on a Sunday afternoon.
5 Star Review by Allan Mann
My mate had a chicken parmi that looked magnificent, but couldn't take a photo, she ate too quick..Very friendly kitchen staff with a joke to boot. Service in the bar was friendly and enlightening, had a mad new release beer called Hazy Daze and it was fantabulous..so cloudy and Hoppy with fruit undertones.
5 Star Review by MsKoshe
A place full of so much character. Really great out door seating with large tables and umbrellas. Friendly staff and lots of area for kids to run around. Great for an afternoon beer. They dont stock VB but the staff were great with other recommendations.
5 Star Review by Pete Andruschthak
Great atmosphere food was good. Many beers to choose from. Friday afternoon work social bowls, they had a solo artist playing on the green. Staff were friendly. Would definitely visit again for a casual catch up with friends
