Excellent servicethe young apologised for a mistake that was not hers. Made a booking for 5 adults 2 children. While booking a table we ordered ahead as well. Definitely a wise decision. Everything was delicious. The flounder was huge so shared. Portions great. I loved my desert Doris plumb pie. Perfect amount of sweet and sour. Service Dine in Meal type Dinner
Got to hand it to The Brick house they never disappoint. Many occasions we have come here to enjoy good quality homely style meals and it's always worth it. From there $10 breakfast menu which is of course plentiful, to the lunch menu and then dinner. All very affordable prices in my opinion whether you wanting to do a function or enjoy a date night with a loved one. Grab a bite to eat with a friend or colleague they got ya covered there at the brickhouse. Staff are super friendly and accommodating. The atmosphere is lively even when it's a busy time of the day. Gorgeous style to the place and there's plenty of places to sit and enjoy your meals. Child friendly I celebrated my 30th here 3 years ago and had my niece and nephews and they let them play and enjoy themselves as well. There's the option of making a meal a half size because they are very big portions which is great, an entire kids menu as well.
Great casual place for dinning. Staff were friendly and inviting. Ordered from counter and food was delivered to our table. Wait was minimal and good spacing between courses. Food was well presented with a home cooked feel. Fantastic flavors and well proportioned. Very well priced.

I have to say its nice to be able to get a good wholesome meal with a variety of different vegetables. I had the Roast Lamb that is available I believe every Sunday evening was just amazing! The meal was hot, the vegetables had a good selection. The staff were friendly on arrival. The place was warm and inviting. The house made apricot shortcake was delicious. Coffee was excellent. 10 out 10 Brickhouse. I will be back. Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person $40–50 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Recommended dishes Plum Shortcake

A pleasant, historic "Coaching Inn" restaurant. My steak was nothing like advertised and very disappointing. Food: 2 Service: 3 Atmosphere: 4
We went here for lunch. I had the roast of the day, which was pork. It was great. Others in our group had scallops, chicken salad, chicken burger and cheese & bacon butty. Everyone was happy with their meals. The drinks pictured are pink panther and iced chocolate. Unfortunately I didn't take photos of our meals. Service Dine in Meal type Lunch Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Recommended dishes Ice Cream Sundae
Staff were really lovely and went out of their way to find out about GF options. Food was very traditional and nicely done. Situated in great old building. Would recommend.

If I could put a minus star for service for the Brick House I would. I visited yesterday with a group of 43 ladies. We were booked for 12.30 and the organiser of our bus trip had visited the Brick House and arranged with the management to have a set menu of three dishes plus desert at a set price. We arrived just before 12.30 and our ladies had all made their menu choices last week and the numbers had been sent through to the chef last week. We had been assured that we would all be served and out by 1.30 as we had pre ordered our food. By 12.55 no one had anything Infront of them and to cut a long story short three of our group ended up serving our group's tables. We had to ring and apologise to the the place we were visiting and and ended up taking our deserts with us on the bus in plastic boxes with plastic spoons to eat the with. Don't book here if you have a large group, they want the money for your visit but won't spend anything on employing extra staff to enable your visit to be a success. The Brick House should not advertise as a function centre, it just can't cope with a crowd. The two stars I have given here is for the food, which was very nice when it finally arrived. Service Dine in Meal type Lunch Price per person $40–50 Food: 4 Service: 3 Atmosphere: 1 Recommended dishes Chicken Salad

A great family atmosphere, ordered two lamb shanks, portions were so large, I couldn't finish both of them, dressed with hot gravy, the meat was falling off the bone, the vegetables were sizable, I was particularly intrigued by the potato ball, crumbed and deep fried with cheesy goodness in every bite, the lamb was complemented well with the mint sauce and mashed potatoes were well seasoned and hot. This is a great quality meal for the price.If you're looking for a hearty meal and a great atmosphere this is one of the best places to go. It takes a lot to create a good vibe 😊 Kudos to the friendly wait staff and the hard working chefs, keep up the good work!
