Great facilities with a playground and putt putt golf outside and an area for kids to play inside. Nice staff but unfortunately very plain and boring food. No flavour to the stir fries and curry wasnt good either. Barramundi with chips and salad was a tiny meal for $30.
Food was a massive let down for us.

It would be good for the laksa if out less sugar. Too much sweet for noodles.

Good facilities but high menu prices don't match the disappointing quality of the food. A nice atmosphere but could prove too expensive for families.

A hidden diamond in Old Bar. We arrived close to the end of lunch time & the staff were most pleasant & accomodating.

Meals were fantastic, as were fresh juices & coffee good & hot.
It's on our "go back to" list

The courtesy bus driver was friendly, as were the wait staff.
The food was tasty. They serve both Australian and Chinese, we all had the Chinese.
The club was neat and tidy.

Good meals but was charged for garlic bread, paid cash and didn't get it. Was told as it wasn't on the receipt (not our fault obviously) we would have to order and pay for it again. Disgraceful! We pay cash to help other businesses and this is how we are repaid. Wont be coming back.

We were old Club Old Bar patrons. It's been a while since we've managed to get in here since Covid and new owners... we come intermittently.... Tonight we booked (recommended) and there was a party happening booking both the mini golf course and bowling green. Dolly made sure we got a bowl... even talking to the President of the club.
Steve at the bar went above and beyond with kindness looking after us and other patrons.... and I will say the food was lovely but your staff really make the place!!
PLEASE bring back the seafood chowder... it's been a favourite of ours for nearly 10 years!!
Thank you!! ??

Great Chinese meal for lunch on specials for $16. Very tasty and large. Had Chilli Garlic Beef with rice.
Great place to eat. They had a Putt-Putt course out front besides their bowling greens. Accommodation can be found next door if you wish to stay in the area.
The dinner menu looked good too.
An extensive choice of meals for lunch and dinner from Chinese, Australian and pub classics.

Words simply cannot describe my experience. From the moment I walked in, I knew it was a restaurant. We took the seats which we had reserved, except they weren't our seats, because they gave us the wrong ones. After speaking to the owners and relocating to the correct seats which we had reserved, we waited an hour and thirty minutes before our meals were delivered. As we were patiently awaiting our morsels, I was enraptured by the beige and lifeless atmosphere of the restaurant. When our food finally arrived, I was brought to tears. The taste and texture was simply indescribable. And by indescribable, I mean there is no words to describe the suffering I endured as a result of consuming it. I felt violently ill afterwards, and I feared that I had contracted food poisoning. I tried to ease my discomfort with the water they provided, however it was lukewarm and only contributed to my pain.
I feel that I should describe the coveted meal in greater detail. The chips were bland and had a rather strange after taste. I attempted to improve their quality by dousing them in gravy, which, may I add, had a dried film on top of it. The gravy did not help. In fact, I suspect that it hindered the quality of the meal more so.
Experiencing this restaurant has truly opened my eyes. Prior to dining here, I was under the impression that despite the struggles we face, life was beautiful, and it was a gift to be on this earth. Since dining, I have been wrapped in the thralls of depression and misery. All I long for is the sweet mercy of death to take my soul from this world. Every time I eat now, the food has a salty flavour, because of the tears flooding down my face and onto my meal, dampening it like my dampened soul. This Google Review is my last message to the world before I depart. Thank you for letting me experience the truth of life before my final moments. Goodbye.

Nice Aussie bowls club!
Blue Ocean Bistro has amazing food, much better set up now with table service, since 2023.
Putt Putt and family friendly vibe.

Visited Club Old Bar today to my sad disappointment. I supported a young girl of age 3, and due to bad weather, I thought I would take her to the little play area at the club while having something to eat. I arrived at 9h35 and was informed that the club was not open, I wasn't offered to wait inside but rather had to return to my car, and we returned later when the club was open. I was 2nd in the queue for ordering food. There was one person taking orders and making drinks at the same time, As a ex hotel manager I found it strange for the order taker to be the barrister aswell, When it was my turn to order, I ordered a ham cheese and tomato sandwich and when asked for onions to be added a second lady walked from the kitchen area, threw her hands in the air shouting at me.... not today, just not today!!! I was so shocked that I was speechless. I am normally very cheeky, but I was blown away by this reaction that I received for asking for an item to be added to my order. I wasn't offered fries to go with my sandwich, and I was too scared to ask .I was also not allowed to ask for a side order fries. I ordered a milkshake for my client and later the same lady who took my order walked over to my table asking is this your table number, and wrote the number on a docket, a few minutes later my sandwich was delivered to the table by the same lady who shouted at me earlier without trying to make an attempt to apologise for her behaviour. The sandwich was so cold and tasteless as I expected, hence the reason I asked for onions to be added. The club was not busy. In fact, I was the only guest in the dining area. I believe the others moved to the terrace side. The club is advertising their new play area all over Facebook, and as a support worker, I am very disappointed in the customer service we received. If not for the rain, I would've walked out, but at the time, I had to put my personal feelings aside and think about the young person I was supporting 'experience. I will not return to the club anytime soon and do not advise any support worker out there to take their clients to Club Old Bar .

Bistro - would not recommend. High prices with underwhelming service. Save your money and go support one of the other local businesses.
Waited 1hr and 20 mins to get our food and when questioned about the wait there was no apology or ownership of the unreasonably long wait time nor was there any empathy shown. There were what looked like a local netball team who came in after us that got their food before us. We will not be returning to this bistro again.

I've come on this thing to say how clean the dishes were when I ate 3 cheese burgers.I ask out loud who was washing them then out came this good looking bloke by the name of Lachlan Murray, I was grateful to shake this young man's hand and he deserves a pay rise.??????

What a retarded place, wouldn't serve walkings from the menu, pizza only even though we found a table. The staff had no clue. It's the holiday season, but they weren't prepared for "walk ins"

My wife and I had a meal at Club Old Bar last Saturday night, for the first time, and were 'blown away' Not only by the food, which was really excellent but also by Acoustic Beatz, a couple who played guitar and sang. They were awesome! A lot of people wanted to dance so tables were moved so that they could. Everyone was singing and clapping along and we noticed that the bar staff were joining in too. It was a real party atmosphere. Looking forwards to going for another meal but also to see Acoustic Beatz should they play at the club again.

I greatly enjoyed the dish, "Pasta of Posideon" - every element was perfectly cooked and full of flavour!
The prices are reasonable, and the staff/service is always friendly and fast.

Good food,friendly staff and good size meals in a nice roomy area. There are good views over the bowling greens and putt putt course through floor to ceiling walls. For group,family or even oneself you won't be disappointed.

Played 18 round of golf. I didn't play but the men and children did.
They had a ball on this really hot day. My Daughter In Law and I sipped Lemon, lime and bitters while they played. $58.00 for 3 Ad and 3 Ch.
Great day and took them about 45 min. Booked online simple and easy through their website.

Polite greeting at reception. Modern inside with comfortable seating. Well priced meals with nice specials of the day. There are rafles some nights with good prizes. Good amount of parking & also a club pick up drop off bus. My review is based on a Monday & Tuesday night visit.

Professionally managed venue, right from the front entrance. Caters well to the local community for various activities eg card groups, dance, craft etc groups. Outdoors it has a new 18 hole putt putt course! Popular for bowls too.

Visited on a night when they were hosting a large function. Meals were of good size but largely disappointing. Prawn cutlets were more breadcrumbs than prawn for example. Food was edible but tended to be undercooked. No one on our table finished their meals.

What happened on Mother's Day Lunch?? No decorations on tables or anywhere in the club. No cutlery/salt pepper, this was a normal lunch with order & collect at counter. Seafood Platter was overpriced, had to ask for serviettes as no finger bowl. Club Old Bar this was my first Special Luncheon is this how all Special Events are done, eg Father's Day, Xmas If so very disappointing.

Great club, we had a miss communication of the time we were attending the club with a large group. The management were able to feed us all and send us home happy. Next year we will be sure to be on time.

Nicely refurbished club. Decor much better than your average country club. Range of drink choices the best I've seen with ginger beer on tap. Food also very good with extensive menu at reasonable prices with large servings. Staff well groomed and friendly. We stayed in motel next door which was really handy.

Nice place to eat, drink and enjoy. Food was more than average and servings were really generous. The chicken schnitzel was bit dry but it was good with gravy.

One of the front staff was rude as soon as we walked in because I have a backpack for my medical stuff and medications. The chips were ok the chicken schnitzel was average. They couldn't or wouldn't sell soft drinks in a jug. To be honest I was greatly offended, disappointed and won't likely return! I cannot recommend this establishment.
