Epping Hotel

This pub is modern and clean. It is located directly opposite the Epping metro and rail station. A note for male clientele, the door to the toilets upstairs is broken, and needs an extra push to allow access. The staff are friendly. The bar is large. On the night I attended, the bar wasn’t serving jugs of drinks, only glasses of drinks. The bistro food variety is excellent - and staff deliver your food to your table. The pub has sports betting facilities and large screen TVs that show sports programming.

Hi there, Wow, where do I start. The staff in the bottle shop I’m afraid to say have the personality and customer service skills of a rubber thong. Giving them the benefit of the doubt we ordered a meal in the overpriced bistro , which is conveniently located next to the overpriced bar. When we got used to the smell of the bathrooms the meals arrived , of course without the exact what we wanted , as we thought we would not make it difficult and ask for egg and bacon on my burger and beetroot on the wife’s to which they replied sorry “no can do “ well that’s the first amusement to our astonishment with a menu that comes on an A3 laminated piece of good luck. In an establishment such as this you would expect to be seeing harbour views or at least water views, I’m sorry to say that only recently moving into the area three strikes and your out , I believe in supporting your local businesses but this establishment does nothing to retain your business it’s more of a hit and miss type of Pub , I’m afraid to say it has lost its way which is quite sad from when I made the pilgrimage from the north shore to attend its former glory of what was called TRAX, such a shame. Do not recommend.

QR check in was checked by a staff member at thr fron entrance. All staff were masked correctly. Atmosphere wasn't bad for a Friday night! Order and pay at the counter. Drinks bought from the bar. Food came out super fast. Food presentation was on point. Halloumi entree was so good! Lamb shanks fell off the bone. Chips were awesome but the vegetables were soggy unfortunately. Espresso Martini was too sweet, I wasn't a fan. The toilet with the nappy change area was filthy. Parking free for 2 hrs across at Coles behind the hotel. Access by train just get off at Epping station and walk across the over bridge

Food is quite acceptable under normal circumstances but service is not up to scratch. Ordered a burger...took to the table...went back for the tomato sauce, but the lid hadn't been screwed on after a refill and hence splattered a river of sauce all over the burger, my clothes and the table. The fella at the desk merely gave me a couple of serviettes and walked off. Very poor & won't be back.

Staff can be racist. The staff only offers hot complimentary food to the caucasians who they regularly chat to, the staff is young, she offers a whole sausage to her friend, a dude who she was flirting with. The rest of the customers and patrons who’ve put in a lot of $$ in the machines get no offers at all if they wanted some food.

Eat ... Drink ... Enjoy. A great little Pub at a handy location, opposite Epping Train station with parking nearby at Coles. Due to covid restrictions on seating we recommend you book or perhaps take a chance and impulsively drop in. We were lucky to snag a table for two under an open window on a balmy Sumner night. It was perfect. Almost romantic even. Staff are always friendly and we are always happy with our meals.
