Our semi-regular pub-club has been limping along lately, amongst our terminal instalment (at the Cornish Arms) attracting a tape depression turn-out. For a diversity of reasons, nosotros somehow exploded this calendar week into a grouping of almost xx willing pubbers, pregnant nosotros needed a venue that could mash a big grouping inward at the terminal minute. Enter The Union Club Hotel. It served us good on a previous pub-club visit as well as had enough of infinite inward the dining room for us (even if nosotros did terminate upwards split upwards over ii tables cheers to the 30+ birthday grouping inward the corner).
The carte du jour has changed since terminal fourth dimension but there's nonetheless a vegan-friendly burger on offer, the soy chilli tofu burger amongst tomato, lettuce, onion, cucumber, coriander as well as eggplant savour ($17).
Importantly, the chips were done pretty good (there's cipher to a greater extent than disappointing than bad pub chips). The burger was pretty skillful also - a chilli-soy marinated tofu chunk amongst fresh salad as well as a tasty eggplant mush on a decent bun. Goes good amongst beer.
Cindy went a chip to a greater extent than upmarket, amongst the arancini balls (field mushrooms as well as parmesan amongst a gorgonzola sauce, served amongst a rocket, radish as well as pear salad, $18).
I didn't deal to sneak a seize amongst teeth but Cindy seemed pretty impressed amongst these, fifty-fifty managing to complete her repast earlier simply about of our dining buddies. The arancini had a prissy theatre fried pare on them but were filled amongst creamy, cheesy rice flecked amongst mushrooms. The salad was a pleasing crusade too, later on her disappointment last time.
The staff were skillful humoured as well as relatively efficient, despite the difficulties of dealing amongst ii massive groups (although i of our friends' orders was delayed briefly). I actually similar the vibe of the pub also - it's got a lovely outdoor area, a prissy rooftop as well as a skillful mix of dining tables, lounges as well as standing areas. And a puddle table. The nutrient falls a smidgen curt of the standards gear upwards past times Collingwood champs The Gaso, The Fox as well as The Gem but it's a reliable selection inward a crowded pub landscape. We'll live back.
