Penrith Bowling & Recreation Club Limited reviews
1 Star Review by Jason H
Booked our work Xmas function here. 100ppl or so. Secured a private room, table setting and the like was all fine. We we commenced our function at 1pm. Staff informed us that entrees would commence being served at 120pm. The entrees arrived at 2pm. At time of writing it is now 325pm and the first mains are only arriving now. Avoid having your function here if you have more than 20 people is my advice because management here simply have not got the skills to cater for scale. If they did, there would have been more staff or better communication at a minimum.
4 Star Review by Gary McSullea
Good food with new catering provider, absolutely terrible wine glasses. Wine glasses are from the 60's, they are too small and filled nearly to the brink. I wouldn't drink wine from them as whilst you can taste the wine you cannot smell it which is important.
4 Star Review by Nicole Taylor
My partner and I have had a few hit and misses here over the years but since the bistro has changed hands we are so impressed! Seriously delicious food at an excellent price and great beer specials too! Just make sure you bring your appetite!
2 Star Review by Jayne Robinson
Food is great but service leaves a lot to be desired. We all order our meals at the same time but they come out in dribs & drabs. Some people are finishing before the rest even get theirs.
3 Star Review by Chloé Steward
Service and food at the bistro is a bit hit and miss in my experience. Ordering individual meals off the menu is better for a group than the set menu. The set menu is very average and not very adaptable to dietary requirements. Staff at the bar are always welcoming and professional. Waiters at the bistro often very slow and a bit judgemental. Used to be 100x better pre-Covid.
