Etc.. FYI Kitchen/ Bistro trading hours: Tuesday to Friday : 12pm - 3pm Tuesday to Saturday : 5pm - 9pm

4 Star Review by IS L

The steak special was definitely value for money. Gaming area separate from the dining area. Worth going back again

5 Star Review by Geoffrey Xiang

Popular location for pre-drinks and its easy to see why with cheap drinks. An Alize lemonade is only $8 and cocktails $12. The food is also great value, a steak and chips will only cost you $12 on some days. My mates and I come here all the time, whether its for drinks on a Friday night or before an event later on.

5 Star Review by Shenny Penny

Decently priced drinks, meals are tasty. The staff are really helpful and friendly.

3 Star Review by Wayne Gould

Went to the Sanctuary hotel during the week to have a drink and get a meal after work. The beers are cold and a good selection on tap! Good choices for meals and very reasonable specials. I ordered a Scotch Fillet chips and salad with pepper sauce. The meal cost $33 and the sauce an additional $3. Steak was well cooked but a little fatty. Salad was fresh and well dressed. Id say nothing fancy and a very basic pub meal.

4 Star Review by Mark Ng

I had a drink with a friend of mine outside late yesterday afternoon and left a shopping bag that contained three new shirts behind the chair. I was relieved and appreciate that the staff saw the bag afterwards and kept it for me to collect late last night, only to realize this morning that there were two blue shirts inside, one white shirt was gone. Not cool

5 Star Review by Jack Wilshaw

very delicious food well worth a visit also a great price we had the steak and lamb shank with mash. Steak was full of flavour and cooked perfectly. Lamb shank was delicious and fell off the bone. Would definitely recommend!

Nice place to have a meal and a drink. Food was good and not a bad price. It's not too far from hotels, an easy walk to them.
