St James Hotel reviews

3 Star Review by Campbell Docherty

Sausages were great. Generous sized meals and very reasonably priced. They could have said the kitchen was downstairs to collect your meals. But otherwise all good.

3 Star Review by christopher small

The atmosphere is great, beautiful steaks however I think with their $15 dollar specials, they could throw in a free salad since the sauce cost 2 bucks. But besides that it's great.

5 Star Review by Mary Lai

Food are nice and well presented.. Good hangout place after work and esp Friday night.

4 Star Review by Rattan Muttoo

Nice little underground bistro in the heart of the CBD. Decent prices for beers and food during lunchtime and well worth checking out for a work lunch or after work pool game. Note even though its only 1 floor down your mobile reception might cut out..
