Main meals were served about one minute after our starters arrived - not ideal! Did not give us time to enjoy our starters as we felt like we needed to start on the mains before they went cold. Also, did not give us enough time to order more drinks as we needed to eat before everything went cold.

My Husband is a coeliac so we chose TapWorks because they’re one of the few places that serve GF beer and they have numerous GF options on their menu.

Overall a great dining experience, however you claim to have a rotating gluten free beer option and the last few times we have been it has only been the the same beer on offer, a bit disappointing as my husband is coeliac and it is very difficult to find places that serve gluten free beer. Thankyou

Never been there before,
The table for 5 people was was a work dinner. Very disappointed that we could not pay with company credit card. (American Express)
The booking app should advise this very clearly.
The food was very good .
The staff very friendly.
The cocktails not so good. Very weak in flavour.

We had 3 separate groups (2 couples & one family of 4) at our table put through orders. This included 2 lots of bread which were supposed to be entrees. The bread came out in the middle. One half of one of the couples got his meal about 5 mins before anyone else, then the other couple got their meals, followed by the other half of the first couple. The family got theirs haphazardly at the end, & by the time the last person got theirs, almost half our table had finished their meals. Apart from delivering the meals when they were ready no one approached the table to check everything was going well or to offer us table water. The food was nice but the service disappointing.

We thoroughly enjoyed our dinner that evening. I do wish they allowed food to be ordered as an entree, to arrive at the table first before the main meal. If I had to find a negative it would only be the extremely loud noise coming from a band located just outside the restaurant. They made conversation difficult but the restaurant CANNOT be held responsible for that. We have always enjoyed our meals at Tapworks, the food and staff etc are wonderful!!

We had a large table and everyone had issues with their meals. Either under cooked or over. The chips weren’t cooked enough and the steak was tough and not charred the pork belly was only partly crispy skin. Not one of us enjoyed the meal and or coming back. The staff were a bit short at times as well

Staff are always welcoming, the food is always great & good value for money.
Added bonus is to now be able to book online. We recently couldn’t book as it was too close to opening. I left a message and a staff member rang me back to reserve a table for us - great service

My two guests ordered pork belly and the crackling wasn’t great. The glasses of sparkling shouldn’t be over $10. I go to Tapworks once a week for dinner because I really enjoy the chicken schnitzel. Perfectly cooked and value for money.
