Food, atmosphere, staff all good. One minor comment was a little disappointed they don’t have lactose free milk so was not able to enjoy an after lunch coffee. Maybe would be good to have more milk selections for patrons with some dietary restrictions. Overall great experience and would certainly go to Sunnyside Tavern again.

Food, staff and atmosphere were great. Quick service once we got our order in. Shame we couldn’t order online as the internet service is almost non existent so had to join the long queue to order - everyone said they had the same problem.

Always get a great meal, hotel always clean and friendly staff. Last visit large group of people with young children who let them run amuck inside restaurant. My group moved tables 2 times. Parents need to control their children and have respect for other diners

My booking was looked after... Service is sensational... cannot fault the efforts of this young team... The negatives are...Dining Table outside was sticky... Flathead fillets looked and tasted like something out of a supermarket freezer, yet charged for fine dining. Given this was my first ever visit, I will be back as I said. enjoyed the young Team so focused on completing their tasks. I believe management was the let down today.

We like going to the sunny. The staff were being smashed with the crowd. The girls on the floor were great. Disappointed but understood the full menu was not available. Hubby wanted the pork ribs but liked his lamb cutlets. I chose the scotch steak this time instead of my normal chicken schnitzel, sorry did not like the steak. Looking forward to going back in the future though.

Booked in at 6:00, before seeing a show at the entertainment centre at 8:00. Had to change our order to takeaway, having to wait over an hour , for pizzas(thought this would be quick and easy). Stuffed the pizzas down quick in the drive over. Staff couldn’t handle the big crowd that all had the same idea. Staff was frustrated and angry. Pizzas were fantastic. Investing in a bigger pizza oven might help.

Advertised their weekly Monday night two for one meals but didn’t bother to let their booked table of six people know they weren’t honouring it tonight? Then proceeded to tell our table that vegetables were off the menu tonight? Will not be back.

Terrible service.- lady was very rude to my husband when he ordered. No forks available for diners, all dirty. I ordered garlic prawns and rice and got no rice. My husband’s order was also wrong. Chef was chatting to diners rather than cooking. Overall, a horrible experience.

To say we were disappointed with the quality of the meals my wife & I ordered would be an understatement! We both ordered the 250g rump steak as medium/rare. We both had trouble pushing our forks into the steaks they were that tough & my steak was mostly gristle. Another issue was the surcharge for using a card to pay for the meals, which we believe was excessive. Once bitten, twice shy - we won’t be back!

My meal, chicken stuffed breast, but the lamb cutlets were disappointing. They were a dark brown and clearly overcooked. For $30 it was disappointing that they were so small. One actually looked like you had crumbed and deep fryer only the bone it was that tiny

Overall we had a really nice time. The only thing that wasn’t pleasant was how loud the speakers were, when the raffle numbers were called. The man calling the numbers was helpful, he did have a loud kinda voice. The volume could’ve been turned down just slightly.

Food was very disappointing, fish and chips was not up to standard, Steaks weren't the best the wife ordered the chimichurri and looked more like a pile of moss and tasted as bad. Good atmosphere, but if looking for good food steer clear.
