    Really busy due to football and concert but it didn’t falter service. Good food and staff were really friendly and super efficient. Will definitely be back.

    Great place for dinner before the footy. Loved the seperate dining area which was quiet enough to have a conversation but still had a great pub atmosphere. The food, cocktails and beers were all amazing. Wsghu cooked to perfection. 6pm booking, out by 6.50pm on Anzac Day, very impressed. Staff were welcoming and attentive. Would definitely recommend.

    We visited the Union House on Wednesday night, steak night. The steaks were really delicious and great value for money. We were upstairs in the dining room and the ambience was excellent. It was very busy but not too noisy. Enjoyed the experience.
