Braidies Tavern - STRATHFIELDSAYE

We had a family gathering at the Tavern before our return to Canada. I think I should clarify for Canadians that restaurants in Australia are different. You go up and order your food in some cases this being one you pay when you order. The bring the food to your table. It is a little more expensive than you would expect at home. However there is no tipping. This restaurant has great food and drinks. I would recommend it to any one in the area or visiting. I will be back at Christmas for another visit.

We have not been here for a long time but had been hearing some good reports again so went for a function. We were a large group and it took a while to line up to place orders and a bit longer for food to arrive but most were very happy, mine on the other hand was cooler than luke warm so back it went. The waitress came back with an apologies and a glass of wine on the house, when the food did arrive it was very good. My partner had the Rump steak and it is still being talked about....it was sooo big and tasted great, and am happy to say the other 40 people seemed happy with there meals. So yes we will go back.... I may have drawn the short straw again as but was very happy with the way they dealt with it.

Was at Braidies for a Rotary dinner and had no expectations of excellence but the food and service was superb. Not sure it is what they usually serve or whether it was special because it was a function but it was great either way and worth a visit for a casual meal to see if it is the same every day of the week. Highly recommended!

We've always loved Braidies and were a little concerned when we heard that it was under new management. However these guys are doing a great job. There's been a few small changes but it's maintained it's small town hospitality. We recently ate there as a family. We had a small issue with one of our dishes (they didn't omit the sauce as requested), they were so apologetic and even gave us a free dessert because of their error. We were very impressed with the service and the meals.

Braidies used to be horrendous but now, under new management, there has been significant improvement. The tacky railways memorabilia has gone and the food has improved. We were seated by a friendly and efficient server in a big room with quite a few occupied tables. Meals were delivered to our table of four within a reasonable time. The food is very basic pub fare but about what you'd expect from a basic, no frills pub and no one at our table had any complaints. After all, this isn't a restaurant.
