Walked in the place was very dark. No lighting. Service was below average. Husband got the braised lamb shank. It was very tough. Menu said it came with mashed potato, he got chips. When he questioned the waitstaff/owner. He sai the mash potato was out of stock. I had the Chicken Diane which wasnt too bad. Grandson had a cheeseburger. No real atmosphere. Overall not the greatest dinning experience. We probably wont go back
Complete cockup, ordered 1 tray of crispy mushrooms with sour cream and 1 tray of wedgies and bacon with aioli and sweet and sour sauce, they doubled up on the wedgies, and no sauces at all. Had to drive back and was told "you didn't ask for sauces. By the time I got home it was cold and gooey. I think he was pissed so that may explain it.
Waited 35 minutes for our food. First to come was the sirloin steak that I ordered as a medium rare, come to find that my steak was well over done and a bit burnt. I spent more time chewing my steak than enjoying it sadly. Second to come was my partners chicken sandwich which he enjoyed but it was more of a “chicken on toast” more than a sandwich, third to come was my BBC burger which was $24.50, when restaurants advertise “bacon” you expect more than one little shrivelled piece but at Breakers that is the best that they can provide along with a burnt patty on the bottom. Fourth to come was my partners kahuna burger which he didn’t mind. Overall the meal could have been better especially for the long wait. I don’t mind long waits for food but the food needs to be decent if I’m waiting over half an hour.
Good meals, decent prices although some are a wee bit pricey. Steak wasn't cooked on a hot enough grill, so was grey not browned and lacked depth of flavour. Chicken Diane gravy was extremely salty. Other meals, especially burgers were well done. Ribs were excellent. Great service. Toilets except 1 were all closed before venue closed, which made final uses a bit of a wait. Great off road parking which was needed considering there was no onroad parking due to theatre event nearby.
We had a beautiful meal.. Service was amazing, nice staff who are willing to help how ever they can.
