    We arrived at 8:30 on a quiet Sunday night. The staff ensured we had our meals and desserts before the kitchen shut. They really looked after us. Special thanks to Rosie. Food was very good especially the roast of the day. All that quality meat, perfectly cooked for $33 is outstanding value these days.

    Service was terrible-very slow-got given a flat glass of champagne…and the chicken was not cooked through and when taken back was told just to eat the cooked bits!!!

    This was a really good first time experience at Union House. My mum has a dietary requirements for her health and the hotel was very accommodating and she was so happy to sit down to a full meal where she can't always have much off any menu (no salt). The staff were professional, warm, hospitable and friendly. The only point was we had never been to the venue and didn't realise how busy the rooftop was. The staff offered us to move inside though so they did all the right things! We will know for next time.

    Nice ambience, rooftop seating. Very Friendly staff. I'm not a fan of having to go to the bar for all the food and drink orders. Food was a little expensive for what was delivered.

    It’s just a fabulous local pub that does good affordable food and has a great atmosphere. Can get noisy on Fridays and Saturdays.
