East Brunswick Club Hotel

I have to say that I have never been to a pub that offers customer service on the level of this place. In fact it was nothing short of awesome. Even the bouncer at the door treats you with respect (which is a huge difference from what I have come to expect from this profession). They staff here are absolutely incredible, and even if a part of the pub has been booked out. Instead of telling you to go away they will direct you to where you can sit. Another cool thing I noticed about this place was that they still had the old ashtray circling the foot of the bar, and while I mention that they even have the good old bar stools. Despite the fact that it has been done up to look like a really fancy restaurant, it still has its old pub charm.

Went here with my boyfriend to see Fastrack and Attack of the Mannequins play and had one of the best nights out in ages. We arrived early and had a pre drink in the bar and looking back now I wish we had've stayed for dinner as the food looked and smelled good. Was impressed with all the fancy, imported beers and enjoyed a nice bottle of a NZ variety. We ended up somehow playing pin ball for ages too, was nice to see some machines in the bar like old times. Moved into the show room and saw the bands play, not the best aucosticts (excuse the spelling lol) and limited drink options in the show room sadly but the thing I liked most about this place was the crowd. So friendly and laid back, even the security was out the back smoking and chatting with people half the time.

Absolutely love this place! The staff are extremely friendly and the vegan menu is to die for! The beer is cheap and they have big screen TVs with cable which makes it a great place to just hang out n watch the footy. Would highly recommend this place to any vegetarian/vegans out there!

Counter meals at the East Brunswick hotel are decent sized and really tasty. However and i emphasize the word however.. The waitress we had was by far the one of the rudest staff myself and my 3 friends that dined that night have ever experienced. We went to the East Brunswick to see an international band play, the Datsuns. We had planned to eat before the show in the front bar. Our food took awhile to arrive so we asked the staff member how much longer they thought it might be, to which they replied you will just have to wait and walked off. Ok we thought, that was a little rude. Then when our food did arrive they actually threw our plates at us. The plates were literally slammed down and my partner had to catch his from sliding off the table. To this day we tell friends of the pathetic service.
