The Family friendly Pub

The Coolibah Hotel 
(Bistro 76)

After a long hard day of soccer, a few of the boys from our team gathered back at the hotel for a few quite drinks and delving into the quality finger food provided by the Hotel. This was a brilliant way for team members to slowly get familiar with other players, rather than just simply knowing them on the pitch. It served as a team bonding exercise and also was a great way to relaxing the body after a strenuous exercise.



The atmosphere within the hotel is fantastic as it offers the best of both worlds; it has an abundance of Television screens situated within various positions of the hotel.  This allows individual’s to enjoy Saturday afternoon footy, watch the A-league or even follow the English Premiere League later at night. The venue’s large size caters for large groups of individuals to come along and enjoy their night in whatever way suits themselves. It also has a generally kids friendly area which is situated away from the bar but also close to the bistro service, thus allowing families to enjoy the facilities within the hotel aswell. I Had the Calamari. The crumb was a bit oily but overall the salad amped up the dish. The homemade Mayo was a smash!




However on the negative side, during our visit here the service for food was very slow, maybe due to the fact that it was peak time on a Saturday or the fact that our order was quite large in size. Maybe even the kitchen staffs were short on numbers or stock. All these factors may have contributed to the output shown on this day. Nevertheless, I am certain that this place is a right venue for families and friends of all ages. Give it a go I say !!!
