It was this mesmerizing moment that birthed the legend of The Lucky Shag.

"Great place for an after work catch up for a drink or Friday lunch. The menu was reduced due to kitchen renovations however there was still enough on the menu to have options. The beef on the nachos was packed with flavour. We shared a bag of fries. It’s hard to believe this very basic thing could be so delicious. They have nailed fried. Very crisp and crunchy in the outside and fluffy and hot inside. There is no table service for food/drinks. Food is the QR code or at the bar and you collect your own drinks from the bar. They have a good selection of cocktails too."
"We hired the top floor for a surprise 60th birthday and from the get go Jess B was absolutely amazing every step of the way. She helped me coordinate everything and on the night she was there making sure everything ran smoothly. Every staff member we encountered was so polite and genuinely happy to be working the function. The food choices were plentiful and the comments from guests were that they were so impressed with how many gluten free options there were. One guest is a head chef at a top restaurant and absolutely sung the praises of the garlic prawns on sweet potato. Everything was just so amazing and I can't thank Jess and the staff enough for making it such a memorable night!"
"Good location but a bit tucked to the side of the main river. Food ok, standard. Service busy at times and not that smiley when I went"
"Nice location next to the river. Great atmosphere with nice food and drinks menu!"
"Great beer selection NRL on the big screen and great service. However the steak sandwich was a bit lackluster for the price of chewy steak with tomatoes and onion and the "crisps" were questionable. I understand the kitchen was under renovation so the review is still high. But still a bit pricey for what I received. Other than that great venue and hope to come again with the renoed kitchen"
