Marybrooke Manor - Restaurant

My family and I visited Marybrooke Manor for my birthday several weeks ago, as we were looking for somewhere special to spend the afternoon having a High Tea. The setting of the Manor is beautiful, and we enjoyed the drive there and looking at the beautiful gardens, and we arrived at the restaurant with high expectations. We were, however, extremely disappointed with our experience of the afternoon.We were shown to our table in the restaurant, amongst the diners there for a Sunday pub type lunch, and were then left alone for 10-15 minutes without an explanation of how the afternoon would unfold or what we could expect.

Came in for a weekend breakfast, they charge a \premium over all nearby venues only to get sub standard food, really disappointing. Staff were good about it though and did not charge for some items, If I were a guest and it was my included meal I could live with it but not spending $100 for a weekend breakfast. the $16 waffles with blueberries consisted of 1 pancake sized and shaped waffle, with tinned berries. The big breakfast comes with a hashbrown the size of my thumb, supermarket eggs, toast and bacon and some sauteed mushrooms and half a tomato for over $20. The OJ is not fresh but the sort you buy in the unregridgerated part of the supermarket... I honestly woudln't prepare this stuff...

Attended a wedding at Mary Brooke Manor the reception room was lovely and the staff were obliging, Gardens are beautiful the food was okay. my only strong criticism is the amount of steps to the rooms and even into the reception area if you are in a wheelchair permanently this is not the place to be. This day and age ramps should be mandatory although there is a ramp at the rear of the building for guests requiring upstairs accommodation we could not find it.

Lovely wedding, gardens are stunning and there is a certain feeling of something special about the building.The punch was cool but by the end of the night the bar staff were getting lazy and it became red lemonade. Entree pasta was awesome, didn't think too much of the steak, was quite dry.Overall a really nice venue for a wedding or special event.

Outside venue excellent for wedding. Inside a little cramped but cosy. Before booking check rules for last drinks and power of staff to refuse drinks as I found their attitude to non intoxicated patrons strange and I was paying the bill.
