cobblers falcon

not quite the same as our last visit.
the mother's day set menu for $55 looked promising on paper but didn't deliver the same level of amazingness as previously experienced. the service was very sluggish to start, as we waited 15 mins to get a drinks order in, and we had to flag down a waitstaff to get the order in. the second service error was that after a lengthy wait the mains arrived before the entree. the entree of crab cakes was presented well and the cakes were in short supply as the table tried to raid my plate. the steak wasn't in the same light however. it was cooked perfectly but really lacked nice marbalisation. overall the experience didn't have the wow factor of the last visit, but i still remember the duck dish so that will bring me back to give the a la carte menu.

a great option if you are in the area!. this was our first visit to the refurbished cobblers and boy they have done a cracking job.
the decor is a mixture of exposed beams, oversized light bulbs and exposed brick. the fit out could happily slot into a mt lawley hot zone.
the wine list is basic but has an option for most taste buds. the food menu has eclectic mix of proteins, breads and vegetarian options to keep the table happy.

we ordered an array of dishes ranging from charcuterie board to confit duck. all proteins throughout everyone's meal were cooked perfectly and seasoned well. the confit duck was the highlight for me with a melt in your mouth experience. the beet root fans will also love this dish as the multiple flavours and textures compliments the duck well. the tin lids have a fairly basic choice but should suffice for thepizzaand chicken lovers.
the service wasn't quite to the high standards of the food and decor but still was perfectly acceptable.
the 'new' cobblers has clearly lifted the food service to a level where there is no local competition for them.
p.s the wife said the pork belly was one of the best she has had

i'm always excited to dine at a new restaurant, as it usually brings new flavours and experiences with it. we sat in their alfresco dining area, as it was a beautiful day. the spring roll entree was a great way to start off the proceedings, with a crunchy shell and wonderfully cooked interior. the turkish bread entree was excellent value, with perfectly cooked chorizo, fetta, pesto, a dipping sauce with strong undertones of yoghurt, and of course the olive oiled bread. our eye fillet dishes consisted of all the different sides that were available on the menu. whilst the salad and chips was simple, it was effective in tying the protein together with the mushroom and red wine sauce. the rosti provided with another included side dish was really good, with a crunchy textured shell and soft inners. the potato bake that was another element of an eye fillet side dish wasn't enjoyed as much as the others, due to being under seasoned. there is some great little techniques and alot of elements of the dishes that are made from scratch in house which is a good thing too see in a pub restaurant. if i'm in the area again i'll happily make a return visit. food 7/10 decor 5.5/10 (alfresco) service 7/10

overrated. food was okay, not good or fresh. ordered the pizza, fried chicken and lamb. can taste that they are not cooked fresh andpizzawas blend.
only positive was good service.

how much oil has to go on a pizza???. i've been to cobblers a few times now. i have to say for the falcon area it's pretty good but so would a kid be selling apples on the side of the road. the food is just plain average, the fish dishes tasted off, the meat loverspizzai ordered had masterfoods bbq! sauce on it and the meat was shriveled up worse than my cracked heels with a still uncooked base. i'm not fussy but a group consensus confirmed it was almost inedible and was returned to a totally disinterested manager who was about 20 and had the customer relation skills of a rock. he offered me a free beer worth $9 to replace a $25pizzaand when i hit him up about the price disparity he said one pizza, one drink. clowns like this have no place in the hospitality industry and hark back to the bad old days of wa dining. stop taking advantage of the lack of competition and lift your game cobblers, you really need a wakeup call.

unbelievably bad service and terrible food. attended on a sunday evening;
asked for chilli (flakes) on the $25 pizza, which they have added before but were too busy this time....
thepizza? - terrible couldn't describe it, a meatlovers at dominoes would have been lovely compared to it...
old dried leftovers and scraps from the week, thrown on a terrible base with some cheap bbq sauce over the top. i asked everybody to try it before i spoke to the staff to make sure it wasn't just me, all three of us spat it out - there was chunks of lamb on it that tasted old maybe off - bad enough to make you sick.
i took it to the staff, the manager made me feel like i was complaining for nothing, "i like the pizza's here" he said "but your not happy with it so what do you want?"
i hate complaining, so i said if he just gave us a bar card we will still spend the money here.
"just come and see me when you want a drink" he said and took thepizzaaway.

then when i asked for the drinks he wasn't going to give me more than a $10 glass of wine..."it was yourpizzawasn't it? - i don't even have to give you a free drink"

at this stage i got quite upset and challenged the manager about the value of the pizza, he ended up giving me another small glass of beer (valued $16.00 altogether) and said "sorry about all that" - - just ridiculous after the attitude displayed.

i asked other patrons about their food, people had many complaints but put up with it...i can only put cobblers success to lack of competition but seriously, my three bad similar experiences at cobblers ensure i'm just not going back again next time.

living local i used to frequent cobblers weekly.
after being told down the managers nose rudely "you cant leave a dog tied up outside, i am not happy with that"
i could understand if it was said nicely.
i won't go here again.
that female manager is often rude and food is overpriced and flavourless anyway.

sunday sesh 12/1/13. great .... sunday sesh 12/1/13.
great place, at the time we went it was full of many many, over tattood, muscly loud young fellahs which somewhat spoiled the atmosphere, but still had a great time.
live music was awesome and the guy was lovely too.
good beers on tap, great service. pleasant place.
little bit down on the ambience side of things and thepizzawe had was pretty average.
but looking forward to trying it again next time :)
thankyou.

newly reopened! wow!. hubby and i went to the newly reopened cobblers for lunch this week - and wow we were blown away! the staff are friendly and helpful; the tab area is huge and well set out; and the food is delicious! we ordered the salt and pepper squid (to die for) and the prawn and chorizo pizza. both came out quickly and were delicious! my only suggestion (because face it - it is an amazing pub) would be to make thepizzabases a little bit more crispy!

we look forward to cobblers being our new local!
