Buena Vista Hotel reviews
4 Star Review by Speakers Coach
this pub has everything. interesting position outdoors. sports indoors. different levels of dining. but most of all, it epitomises the laid back Sydney close-to-beach vibe so well.
4 Star Review by Luke Murphy
Great location. Very busy pub. Stopped for a quick draft Guinness after a day at the Zoo. The Buena is in a lovely part of Sydney. Plenty for f parking in nearby streets. We didnt eat- maybe next time. Bar staff are great. Just walking around Mosman is lovely. There are so many very expensive properties around there.
5 Star Review by Anthony Bertuca
The Buena is our home away from home and we always love it. But roasted lamb for fathers day was next level. Wed order that every Sunday if we could. Keep up the great work team!

3 Star Review by Terry Roach
As a regular here for years Ive been really disappointed to see the quality of food at the Buena deteriorate so badly. We stopped ordering their steaks a while back as they continued to shrink and shrivel, but tonights Chicken Schnitzel couldve come from Woolies frozen food section (and cut in half). Soggy chips, putrid cole slaw (they used to have the best crunchy, fresh slaw). The rest of the menu isn't much better. To his credit, the manager Mitch was very apologetic and offered me a $100 voucher when I complained. I declined, the point of my feedback is to encourage them to improve. I want to keep coming here, I love the place. Will keep coming back hoping for a better experience!

Drinks fabulous, food delectable. Been here twice over the span of a few years and didnt disappoint. The fish tacos, in fact all the tacos were seasoned well. not too much mayo- thank god!- pasta al dent, sauce divine. Schnitty crunchy. Just all pretty great :)
