Wollongbar Tavern reviews

4 Star Review by goldilock

It was a busy Sat night dinner - food did take a while to come but it was amazing. However the kids meals came out very fast. Nice and warm atmosphere. Trouble of finding the entrance, very confusing

4 Star Review by ashleigh skimmings

I got a main meal which was the fettuccine carbonara chicken pasta which is always amazing and massive could feed 2 people, also got a side of chips and mash which was also amazing. The pesto cheese pizza small was honestly the worst Ive seen was burnt and no taste, Ive had this pizza before and its always saucy and worth the buy for 11.50 but for some reason its black as and taste is tasteless wasnt impressed

5 Star Review by Helen Dingemans

Love this place,when visiting friends i always insist on eating here-food is always consistently good,and service is quick considering the amount of people they serve!Great food at very reasonable prices.(Food was presented much nicer when it came out,but we started eating when I decided to take a pic!)

5 Star Review by Layla Dawson

Such incredible service. Bar tenders were warm and friendly. They were training someone tonight but I was happy to wait as they were so friendly. Food came out in incredible time especially as it was so busy. Food was above and beyond what we were expecting. We ordered the Mediterranean chicken tenders and mash and veg with the Dianne sauce. My husband ordered the slow cooked pork belly. Both was scrumptious. Dianne sauce was best Ive tasted and veggies were cooked to perfection with that little bit of crisp. Garlic in the mashed potato was the perfect touch and to taste actual mashed potato in a tavern with reasonable prices was so appreciated. Going home happy tonight and glad we could support a brilliant local business. Keep up the good work.

2 Star Review by Eddy Lam

Disappointing. WT used to serve great meal. Last 2 visits have been well below par. Burnt and overly fatty ribs and blend pasta. Not sure if it is the head chef that stands behind the bar chatting away instead of running the kitchen. Well, very disappointed.
