Butcher And The Farmer

Came here randomly on Australia Day. It’s got a nice vibe, with the unique butcher shop being linked directly to the restaurant (you can actually buy meat there). We came for the restaurant and it didn’t disappoint. The service was quite good with attentive and friendly staff. We got the calamari (had an interesting sauce which was quite tasty but the chilli in the calamari has quite a strong kick), the burger with the fries (the fries were cooked well and apparently the burger was also a very good burger), and lastly the brownie with caramel popcorn and ice cream (rich chocolate that melted in your mouth - I’m usually not the biggest fan of chocolate, but this brownie was very good; the combination of the ice cream, brownie and popcorn was an enjoyable elixir of tastes and textures!! Would recommend! The only thing is that they charge $5 per person as the public holiday surcharge. I found that quite strange as it is usually a % of the bill, but 🤷‍♀️

Beef was cooked to perfection; however, not too sure for a gram portion. I ordered 400g rib eyes and it looked like less than that. Side dishes were ok, nothing fancy. Recommended charred grilled brocolini, mixed grains salad. It's a good place for people loving beef. Less option for non-beef favour; Only grilled chicken, crispy pork belly, fish tacos and salmon in bag. Salmon in bag is not much favor, prefer to be cooked as crispy skin grilled salmon instead.

Nice, warm atmosphere. Very spacious venue. The service was really good. Food - I ordered the fish tacos and wasn’t a big fan of it. It came with 3 tacos and the fish was a battered stick. My friends ordered the pumpkin salad and had chicken added to it. That was a generous serving - literally a 1/4 pumpkin and it was actually quite delicious and tasty. Other than that, nice venue.
