The Meating Room - Canberra

Service overwhelmed a bit on Friday. Enter arrived with Main. Meals adequate and not great value. Atmosphere good, with lots of hub hub. Beers varied and tasty.

The Meating Room is an upscale style pub with a range of higher end pub style dishes. There's a variety of craft beer on tap and they make their own biltong. It's a great spot for family occasions or a catch up with friends. They have a kids area too. The beef ribs are melt in your mouth delicious and the deep-fried cheesecake needs to be tried by everyone. They are opened for breakfast, lunch and dinner and have live music on Friday night and Sunday afternoon. eatcanberra.com.au

Great atmosphere. Great, friendly service. Awesome food! Refreshing! Being from Adelaide we have depended alot on other reviews of restaurants, so we decided to start adding our opinions. This place is great! Would definitely come back! Highly recommend!

I read about this place on Facebook so decided to try it while we were in town. Great casual vibe, loved the aranchini and the wings we started with. The star was the slow braised ribs! The service was ordinary, we asked for some time between starters and ribs but it all came out together. We were told (with no appology) that the ribs would have to be remade if we wanted them later but that the kitchen was closing.

Disappointed - dropped by for Sunday brunch - food looked amazing but waited around for service only to be told 20 minutes after she seated us at our table that it wasn't table service. Perhaps next time tell people that when you sit down. Due to the wait we then missed he breakfast menu. Annoyed. Walked out. Unless they improve their service, don't bother.
