I had a great time at whaler (food/drinks and environment) so Im not so sure as to why the overall rating is so low! Came here for dinner/drinks last night and really enjoyed sitting inside close to the open fireplace and chatting away. The music isnt too loud at all, and the banquet seating/bar stools are cosily set around the fireplace – handy for winter. For food we ordered haloumi/olives to start and for mains the fire pit special which was Pinot slow braised beef rag with papardelle and Parmesan and the worlds best steak sandwich as the menu so titled it- this came with mushrooms and truffle butter, side of chips. I was surprised at how good the food was- good value, decent portion and great taste. The steak sandwich was pretty sensational (that truffle butter was doing heaps!) and my rag could rival any Italian restaurant! Drinks were glass of Pinot noir ( TAS ) and a stout by moo brew (TAS) which paired well with our food.
It is a pub and you will get what you pay for. We had burgers and chips washed down with a red and a pint of beer. It is hard to judge a place based on two burgers. The staff were fine and the food good enough to consider returning.
Friendly service and good food. The fried chicken with chips was tasty comfort food that hit the spot, the chicken was super crunchy and fresh, while the sauce combo on top with the coriander and chili made a good contrast of flavors. We also ordered the Big Whack, man that was delish! The patty was seasoned perfectly, along with the sauces and the abundance of pickles made a great feed. My only regret is that I wish I had ordered the double. Would eat here again.
Cute pub style bar right by Salamanca Market. Awesome beers on tap, cool vibe, live music on Friday night. Cosy venue, fun crowd. Bit chilly in the wind outside, but inside was great!
