We stopped in for lunch. It took about 5min to get the attention of a staff member to seat us. I wanted to swap the dressing on my salad to another one that was on the menu however it was tricky to put in their system. The food was nice. It was very quiet which was lovely. Not many tables downstairs which surprised me. I would go back.

I was here as a photographer for an event. There is a nice function hall on the second level of the hotel. The function hall is spacious good for medium sized functions and the food is great. I had the steak with mashed potatoes and beans, it tastes good. Lighting could be better and just be mindful of the ceiling for flash photography, its not a flat and fully white ceiling so you can't always bounce light from the ceiling.

Unfortunately, our visit to Fountain Gate Hotel didn’t live up to expectations. We ordered the parmas, and they were small, rubbery, and just didn’t match the price in terms of quality. If we hadn’t used the app discount (which gives you $10 off when you sign up), we would’ve felt even more disappointed paying full price.
The waitress serving us was lovely and did a great job no complaints there. However, the dining area where you actually eat looks very outdated, almost like an aged care facility, which really clashes with the more modern look of the bar area. The overall vibe just felt mismatched and underwhelming.
Hoping to see some improvements, especially with the food quality and dining atmosphere.

This place has forgotten its a pub come here for overpriced food,
I am especially disappointed in how poorly portioned the pork ribs were we ordered two plates and one plate came out with only 4 and the other 5.
The food sat under warmer too long and curdled the Mayo a bit I thought it was off. The ribs are just in baby rays, chips bland like celery salt isn't hard never been to a pub this expsive before and the food be this bad.

This review is for their restaurant.
Our usual badminton games and searching where for lunch. A friend suggested to meet here for lunch so we obliged.
Service & Ambience [2.5]. Food is order at the counter and nothing fancy about the restaurant.
Food [2]. Let's focus on their food. We had two different Parma and seems the only difference is one come with onion rings. The fries lack taste and not crispy. The pizza (see picture) has sauce all over, not fantastic. Burger 🍔 so so.
For the price, it's not worth paying. The food portion is quite huge, it will make someone fill full but the taste.
