aspley hotel

attended aspley hotel wednesday night just gone and ordered 2 x 250 gram rumpsteakmeals, one with salad and chips and the other with vegetables. 
well both my wife and i agreed that the two steaks which were about 40 mm thick were excellent and as good as the norman hotel annerley serves up for almost half the price.  chips were good, salad was basic and needs olives cheese etc but was still good.  vegetables according to my wife were very good.  i had a schooner of light hahn which was cold as and excellent.   
will reattend and take our grown up girls and grandchildren. 
best rump for a long time. has been about 5 years since we were last there.  meals cost $20 at night.

i've never really been a big fan of pub grub but tonight was a new low! the piece of charcoal served to me as bbq ribs was perhaps the worst meal i have eaten in my life. firstly, the "waitress" couldn't even confirm if it was a full rack or half rack, she had to take it back to the "chef" to check. the stub end was literally a piece of blackened carbon and was totally inedible. i guess my first clue should have been that "slow cooked" ribs were served with asteakknife (i'm not joking here).

i get it... it's pub food, but i can get great quality dishes at hundreds of real restaurants around brisbane for less than the $35 i paid for this shit!

never dine here!!!

terrible - cold andsteaknot cooked to liking. bruschetta grose with no topping and cold. drive on by.

use to be good. use to eat here often, my husband and i went for lunch a couple of weeks ago, we ordered thesteak(medium), order took about half an hour to come out even though the place was not that busy, mysteakwas overcooked and very dry no sign of any juice on plate. the replacementsteakwas passable but still no juice on steak, husband'ssteakwas passable. the last place we had dried steaks was at stafford tavern and haven't been back either.

average. we had dinner here on a saturday night with family. we chose this place as we had a voucher in the entertainment book. the first thing we noticed when walking in the door was how loud the live music was - just one guy on the guitar - so we asked to be seated as far away as possible from him but it was still hard to hear across the table. meals took 45 mins to get to us & mysteakwas so full of gristle i couldn't finish it. the others steaks were fine though. diane gravy was to die for as well. overall the decor is quite bland & is still quite 'pubby'. an average experience & won't return.

used to be good, not so much anymore. this is my local and up until fairly recently it was quite good. disappointingly though, it seems to be on a downward spiral.

husband and i visited for the first time in a while a couple of weeks ago and we ordered thesteakand fish respectively. husband'ssteakwas good but small, but my fish of the day was overcooked and lacking all but a tiny amount of the promised hollandaise sauce. we visited again tonight and husband ordered thesteakagain and i the sand crab lasagne. again thesteakwas the small but the lasagne was in a league of its own - crab shell in almost every bite and thoroughly disappointing. the only positive was that we got one of the meals free using an entertainment book voucher.

hoping this place can return to its old form or we won't be back again anytime soon.
