I had booked an outside table as the forecast was for sunshine. Before I had to ask, front of house checked if I would prefer to eat indoors due to the wind. Many thanks.

A group who visit from Geelong, Bacchus Marsh and Box Hill we all enjoy the Food Republic Experience. A good venue for 6 people, friendly and prompt service and unless it is impossible because of Restuarant busyness, we can sit comfortably and have a catch up. A good experience for our group.

Food came out quickly but I thought the tea wasn’t very nice. Plus the pots are a bit small, barely get a cup out of them

The venue was a midway point to meet up with friends for a casual lunch. There was very little wait time for our meals to be delivered which we all thoroughly enjoyed. It was quite busy but we didn't feel rushed. The service was outstanding.
