Tabcorp Park Popular Alm Bistro

Home Straight Bistro is part of what is like a 'Superpub mini Crown '. The venue is huge, along with the sports bar and gaming room, and looks out onto the trotting track with the hotel adjacent. Went on a Friday night with a group from work, and whilst watching the races live while having dinner was pretty cool, some of the punters watching you have dinner was not as good. Had the Ribeye with chips and mushroom sauce. The steak was good quality, and cooked perfectly medium, juicy with a nice char. Mushroom sauce was fantastic, a rich gravy with plenty of mushroom, but the chips were disappointing. At least twice cooked, they were overdone, and to be honest i 'm not a fan of skin on (a la wedges) when i 'm ordering chips. Cheesy garlic bread starters were delicious, the service from all staff encountered was excellent. Prices were good for the size and quality of the meals, and the ability to cater for large groups as well as small, makes Home Straight a good local option. Quality of the steak just edged the score up to 3.5.

Excellent service! Very clean! Awesome playground! And good food! A massive shout out to Kirsty for her happy smile and friendly service!!!!

Had lunch today and it was really great,  even had some horse trials on so that was a bonus. We had the curry and pie, plus dessert of waffles and banana pudding and it was hot, tasty and delicious. Staff were really nice.

After much hesitation and considerable convincing I went there for dinner with my partner this evening. Can I just say, how pleasantly surprised we both were. The food was awesome and definitely not what we were expecting considering previous reviews and the fact that it's a Bistro. We were also very pleased with the attentiveness by the staff and their help with answering questions regarding my dietary requirements. We will be returning.

Best Service. As regular diners at Tabcorp Park, especially on race night, the way to go is the ribeye, cooked to perfection every time and melt in the mouth tender. With a new chef on board, the specials menu is also very tempting. Looking forward to Friday 6 June with a special dessert on the menu. From entering the venue everyone one is friendly and the service from the staff on the floor, Tom and others and behind the bar, Heather, makes your experience fantastic and makes you feel very special. We look forward to every Friday night. Thanks Tabcorp Park !
