Templestowe Hotel - Templestowe Lower

Great place for a group function. Plenty of parking and the staff are really friendly. Food is great and portions are big. The beer is cold and the drinks plentiful. I would highly recommend coming here for a night out with family and friends. The staff are fantastic.

We dined on the spur of the moment heading home to our accommodation Such a lovely looking pub with great reviews and a good looking menu too Husband ordered the grilled Barra and I put a twist on Carbonara with homemade gnocchi …should be good I had considered the Veal Scallopini but on ordering I thought a change was nearly as good as a holiday Shortly after ordering a guy comes to our table to advise the kitchen wasn’t happy with the gnocchi this evening so would I like to change to spaghetti or maybe fettuccine Well somewhat disappointed I chose fettuccine …and yes not only was the fettuccine in hard clumps but the saucy carbonara had split and was like pools of oil in my meal I tolerated for a few mouthfuls but it really wasn’t very palatable so I spoke to a server and was happily able to change my meal …yes I had the Veal Scallopini …which was delicious …thankfully

Came here tonight. Great atmosphere and the waiter and waitress were very good and friendly. Carbonara looked and tasted great. Unfortunately the chicken parmigiana was undercooked but management and the kitchen were very quick to rectify the situation, returning with a steak sandwich. Would certainly come here again.

Good beers and they have schooners! Nicely spread out tables so it's not too noisy and feels comfortable. Parma was a bit mushy and the food is a little expensive for a bistro.

We had a group of 14 for a birthday dinner on Thursday 17th August and we couldn't get over the attentiveness of all the staff. The food was fabulous, service was immaculate, and the overall dining experience was superb. We will all definitely be back and special shout out to Noah, Katherine, Erin, Abbey, Corey, Madi and all the rest of the staff who looked after us thank you Chefs. We are locals but others came from further afield and would not hesitate to revisit this excellent venue. Well done to all
