This place is amazing!! We were served by Stefanie and she was incredible! I've never been treated so well! She was the nicest and the best bartender in the West!
Will definitely recommend to family and friends, we'll be back just for her, she made our night.

Excellent service, with staff being friendly and efficient. Food was delicious and arrived piping hot from the kitchen. I had fish strips with chips and salad and my son had a burger with thick bacon on it that he really enjoyed. Also, we started off with calamari that were tender and delicious. The barman poured a mean Guinness also. I'd definitely go again!

Perfect pub meal. They went out of their way to cater to our allergies on Saturday night. Excellent serving staff. Lovely minute steak sandwich cooked perfectly for my son and when I couldn't have the beef burger, due to ingredients in the patty, they cooked me a minute steak for mine with a different sauce to cater to my complex allergies.
Highly recommended

Food was below par. This is the second time I have been that the food has been unedible. I had the risotto and it was over cooked and tasted like Clag! The time before I ordered I veggie burger and it was so oily I got sick from it at home. Probably a awesome place to have a drink but I wont be eating there again. I was offered a free dessert but declined the offer.

Food was lovely, and although we only had entrees the servings were a generous size. They also have specials on certain nights. The burger special looked great. We had chilli mussels and S&P calamari. Both were delicious.
We sat at a nice little spot near one of the windows. All in all, a pleasant evening.

Breaky was delicious! The wait was longggg! There was a queue out the door which went quick enough, maybe 10 minutes but once we were seated, it took 65 minutes for our breaky to come. It was yum, but the staff were a little disgruntled which didn't help the wait times either. Pricey because you're ordering at least 2 drinks while you wait..

Popped in here last night for dinner. I got the roast beef special with roast potatoes, veg, Yorkshire pudding and gravy and we shared a portion of onion rings. We had to flag a waitress down after 15mins to order drinks and food.

Drinks and food then came out pretty quickly, the waitress handed me my hot plate reaching over the table, I'm not sure why she didn't just take 5 seconds and pop around the other side and put it down but anyways... on to the food!

The onions rings were good, nice and crunchy with a light batter. The roast beef special was a little bit on the stingy side. I have included photos.

On the plate was a sprinkling of peas, one lump of roasted pumpkin/squash. 2 half roasted potatoes, 3 slivers of carrot and 2 pieces of basically raw and extremely hard broccoli. Of course, there was also the beef, which was actually a proper serve and it was very tender and tasty. I really enjoyed the gravy too, it was a bit watery but full of flavour.

The issue here is, that looking at the ratio of meat to sides, I had all of the veg gone and still had half of the meat left. There simply wasn't enough veg and potatoes for this roast meal, it was far too stingy, I could count the amount of peas on the plate! Just counted them there - 23 peas with my roast dinner! 2 small half roast potatoes and no mash. I presumed it would come with mash because what self respecting restaurant doesn't serve mash with a roast dinner?

But, to be honest, I'm really here to talk about the abomination on the plate they are apparently calling a Yorkshire pudding. Can't find it? I'll give you a clue - it's that small pale round thing next to the 2 roast potatoes. It was tiny, completely flat and tasted like a dry cracker. I'm hoping these were bought in frozen because if they were homemade, then there's a SERIOUS problem in the kitchen. It's not hard to whip them up, even I can make decent ones very easily and I'm no chef.

If you're going to advertise that the roast dinner comes with a Yorkshire pudding, then there would damn better be an actual one on the plate! Otherwise, take it off the menu because this was an embarrassment. Hang your chef whites up in shame, chef. I wouldn't be proud to put my name to this plate of food.

Won't be back.

Parma was real butterflied breast and there was no token green leaf salad but a coleslaw that works as a side. Extra points for not being served on top of the chips. Tuesday night is kids night. Stay at home if you don't like it.

I had the brisket and my friend had the eye fillet. Both our meals were delicious. Staff and service were friendly and it had a good vibe.

Surprisingly this little bistro delivers a delightful charming evening of food with friendly service at an affordable price.
The menu selection is awesome and if you love Chilli Muscles ? I asked for extra Chilli ? and the chef made an awesome dish.
Staff are young but very hospitable.
Bravo

Our family dined here recently but we were very disappointed with the quantity of food. The steak was tiny as was the fish. The food was well presented but we left feeling hungry. The prices were expensive considering the amount we received.

It had been quite a few years since I had been to the Steam Packet but was impressed by how good it was looking on the outside and inside. You are able to eat outside under trees or umbrellas or inside but you would need to book.
They have a good range of beers as well as non-alcoholic.
The food was great, I had the steak special(eye fillet with mushroom sauce served with chips and salad. My brother and friend both enjoyed the chicken Parma. I would recommend this place if you are looking for a bit of old pub charm.

At $24 for fish and chips I think it was expensive. It looks like a kids meal. The Guinness use to be ok but now it's flat and horrible.

We ended up at Steam Packet by fluke because we were looking for a place to eat and watch the footy in Williamstown. It's a nice pub with a wide variety restaurant menu. We ordered a few different entrees to share while watching the match. All the deep fried food tasted fresh just the way it should. Our absolute highlight was their house made pie. Drinks were reasonably priced too.

My partner and I both ordered medium rare porterhouse, this is what we got, well done rubbery steaks....
On positive note the mash is very tasty.

Good selection of beers on tap, odd that's I can't get a selection of steak house fries at 16:40 but all ok. Particularly enjoyed the young couple dealing with the resident friendly drunk. And not having to converse with him. Ahhg

Meh. Average food. Average service. New decor looks like they used whatever materials were on sale at a suburban homemaker centre... Just meh.
