Federal Hotel reviews
3 Star Review by Jason Lumsden
Have been here a few times to eat. Previously would have rated it higher and had a scotch fillet, which was pretty good. Last time I had a mixed grill which left a bit to be desired. Good portion size but. Pork chop was tough, sausages weren't great, chicken was dry, the minute steak and potato salad were nice. Wasn't too keen on one of the cooks at the front warming counter checking if the chicken was cooked enough with his fingers.

We were extremely disappointed and wasn't worth the money! If you have allergies, they don't cater for you! We had 2 adults and child with dairy allergy. They didn't even have much for gluten free too. Minute steak, salad leafs and half steam vegetables $18. They weren't even able to provide child meal. Chips had milk powder coating too. Drinks were terrible too. Lemon lime bitters was bitter as hell and leaves terrible after taste. North Light taste terrible and wasn't pleasant to drink either.

We were on a getaway with my Husband and decided to have lunch here yesterday the food I must say was very delicious and great portions but not happy with their customer service as we weren't even acknowledged or greeted when we walked which was rather rude in my opinion and I even saw a cook handling food with his hands without any sort of gloves on which I found very inappropriate. But Im happy that we enjoyed our meal at least.

Had lunch with some friends over the weekend. Wasn't the best or the worst!! Service was okay, I had the Chicken topped with garlic prawns on potato mash w/vege it was very salty and no boundary between vegetables and mash. The dish was too sloppy and salty. Husband had Scotch Fillet steak, steak was cooked perfect and tender but the mushroom sauce drowned steak and even the vegetables. Next time sauce will be in a side dish!! Avoid the Pumpkin Ravioli, bland and sloppy. The parma's, burgers, pork loin, fish and garlic bread were a hit. We will try again!

Scotch fillet steak was just ok, I've had worse but I've also have had way better. It was a strange grey colour instead of a nice brown/pink chargrill colour- & definitely not med-rare, much more on the med side. The veggies were only just warm & the garlic butter had been frozen or something so it took ages to melt over the food. Unsure if I'd go back for the steak but possibly try something else.
