Market City Tavern reviews
4 Star Review by Krishna Kamal (Krish)
Decent service, just stopped for a couple shots. The place didn't seem like it had lot of people in. The guy at the counter was pretty good. The outside seating is something I would prefer. The pokies were mostly occupied coz it was a public holiday I guess. Food is nothing great
5 Star Review by Sherman Hardy-Lane
We stayed at The ultimo Hotel and we used this bar every day. The prices are reasonable, the staff are friendly, the place is spotlessly clean even the toilets are bordering on being posh !!

Excellent market for fresh food and holiday buys, clothing and lots of other goods and services. On the upper levels are a variety of shops and eateries. I would highly recommend this place. The market opens from Wednesday the remainder of the shopping/food complex is open mostly 7 days a week.
