Lord Dudley Hotel reviews
5 Star Review by Dante Mariotto
One of the best Sunday roasts in Sydney. Really homely pub on a Sunday night and perfect for hearty food like a roast. Old character and lots of beers on tap and great menu range. Food was incredible, one of the best schnitzels in Sydney, even the Caesar Salad was excellent, can't recommend enough and will be returning.

Only sharing this in hope they will improve this dish!! I absolutely love sweet potato fries , but today i had possibly the worst I ever had. To soft , too sweet, floppy. Usually food is always fantastic here we almost come every weekend its our favourite pub in Sydney. But today they disappointed. You cant serve this.
4 Star Review by Nicholas Lelos
Classic auld English-style pub with darts, pies and some good local brews in schooners or pints. Traditional atmosphere with the suitable old school 80s tunes. Pleasant inside and quite cosy, great members of staff, with dark lighting and restaurant style facilities as well for a sit down meal of a proper grub. Prices tend to be as expected for this part of town, so expect to pay a fair penny.

Good ambience, food came out quick and hot however disappointed with the Yorkshire puddings and both roasts absolutely covered in gravy.. way too much which spoilt the dish in my opinion and it mixed in with the apple sauce.. nice pub, but not an amazing roast like I was expecting
5 Star Review by Alex Stephen
What an awesome local pub, very much reminds me of an inner city pub in London. Nicely poured pint of Guinness and Sunday lunch, which was fantastic (and massive). Service is great, very friendly. Venue has a good amount of space, really nice fit out (London pub vibes).

Proper British pub vibes

Unfortunately the old sandal the chef was wearing managed to cover itself in cheese and land on my plate. The parmi was rubbery and luke warm at best. Previously had decent food here, perhaps an off night.
