I was actually pleasantly surprised here , the name hides a good restaurant. I totally enjoyed what I had assumed would be a terrible 'after work' venue More

They didn't even come over to take my drink order. They didn't have the excuse of being particularly busy either - the place was not even one-third... More

The best food we've tasted in a long time! Staff were very friendly, the food arrived quickly, and the location and view was wonderful. The beer was cold, and the meals were marvelous! Highly recommend to others. More

Reserve a table outside for great views of the river. Service can be a bit patchy but it's generally really good. Food is great if you love your meat n mash. More

Perfectly located, at the Eagle St Pier, the Bavarian serves great food and offers an impressive range of imported beers. It is not a cheap place to go, but you get quality in everything you are served. The staff is helpful and friendly. Get there early to secure a table if you wish to have dinner. More
