Harp of Erin Hotel - Pub in Kew East Victoria

Friendly Service. Community feeling. Great food and customer service. Another great special. Beef Sliders $18.50. Keep an eye on the specials board peoples - they change frequently and I have had no complaints so far.

So honestly speaking, I know I'm very critical...but I usually never have an incident where I am seriously picky about food or actually leave something because I think it's a waste. The Harp of Erin however made it very difficult for me to live up to my standards concerning this aspect. In fact I ordered a Harp Burger, but the Beef Patty tasted like a ton of flour mixed together with beef liver...
Despite this issue, the rest of the meal was absolutely gorgeous, the interior design and atmosphere make it a fun place to be at and the service is friendly while being professional, that's why I rate it a total of 4 stars. Just fix the patty please!🥹 thank you!!

Overall is good. I order medium rare but it comes out almost well done. If they can improve this, I will give 5 stars definitely

The hotel pub/bar has a pleasant atmosphere, attracting a lot of seniors enjoying the special menu for them.

I ordered the roast pork, and while the meat was tender and flavorful, it was slightly salty - probably from the gravy. Unfortunately, the pork skin was not crispy as expected; it was quite chewy.

We also tried the fish and chips. The portion was very generous - half would have been enough. The chips were excellent - crispy and flavorful - but the fish had a strong, fishy taste, which was a bit off-putting. Overall, a mixed experience.

Ordered 3 x 300 gram, $40 steaks, 2 were as expected, the third was a small, flat 200 gram, at best, overcooked thing that looked like a minute steak for a steak sandwich. How it was even plated up and sent out is beyond me. Looked like meat from kids menu . Sent it back and waited 35 minutes for a replacement meal, which ended up being as tough as a beach thong, and really ruined the whole experience. I am local and tried this bistro with the family, for the first - and absolutely last time! Only highlight was the solo musical entertainment later in the night. 🤙🏽
