Mel's Place

Still a very Cosy place to have a few drinks at. Food is also pretty good.

Good food and drinks. Not difficult to book on a normal day

Not bad place to chillax and relax. food wise still acceptable

Mels place served Nice food and the service is good. Will go again

I like the al fresco old school East Coast atmosphere. Good vibe. Service staff is friendly, just like your next door neighbour

Very nice and accommodating staff here! Food portions were a little small but very tasty!

Cosy ambience and the pasta was yummy ! Will try out the Asian food at my next visit.

A fantastic chill out place. They are not stingy with alcohol but the portion of main course is a little small for guys especially. But perhaps most people prefer to go for drinks and small bites..

Nice price to hang out. Food is delicious and staff is attentive.

Made an early booking to avoid the crowd as it was Xmas eve. No crowd and enjoyed the dinner

Pefect food and ambience. Highly recommended for a chill night.

food was taking some time but the food taste is still good. sad that the curfew for beer ends at 10.30pm that we had to rush to finish it.

Proper safety precaution in place. Tables and chairs cleaned, safe distance between other customers.

Have eaten out here many times and in the past it's been cheap and cheerful, the atmosphere fun and vibrant. This particular visit was lacking any of what I was familiar with and it was just all deep fried food with not so great pizzas, likely frozen and thrown in an oven.

Great ambiance and lively venue to have food and spend time with friends

Nice place to drink and hang out on dinner time

It was a cool and chilled place. value for money

Mels place has Good atmosphere, friendly staff and nice food

Mel place food is very nice especially the Caesar salad.

Had to remind the waiter to follow up on our food. Also, they seem so busy that they over look your request and you have to keep reminding them. Food was fine but would be good if the service staff are more attentive to customers' needs

Good ambience, nice foods. Combination of indoor and al-fresco setups

Food was nothing special. It’s really more a drinking garden kind of place rather than place for weekend brunch

The food is very nice. Would recommend the smoke duck pizza

staff were absolutely attentive and friendly, making sure we were looked after! Crayfish Hor Fun was so delicious.

Very comfortable and nice place. Pity band was cancelled due to coronavirus. Other wise it is really a nice place to hang out after work and with friends. Food is very yummy too! Remember to try the pig trotters bee hoon!

Had an awesome time at Mel's. Everything from the service to the good was great.

Live band could have interacted a bit more with the customers.

nice and great venue for gatherings; yummy food selections to try

A good place to hang out with friends. Nice foods and polite usher.

great place to chill and drink. friendly staff, great atmosphere

Very nice food and nice ambiance! Enjoyed the food and the live band (Perfect pear?) definitely made the night memorable

Unique place with both indoor outdoor seatings. Food is decent while servers are sociable and friendly. Comfortable place to chill and relax.

nice and cosy environment. good food,nice ambience, everything is great

Went with family. Not really worth the money to order the Chinese tze char dishes. But family enjoyed the overall experience

Nice and quiet on a weekday. Perfect for a DE stressing drink

Too much noise, a lot of smoke. Food okay! Do not recommend.

Been to this place many times. My friends enjoyed the music here. Will definitely come again.

Nice ambiance. Good for a chill out and gathering with friends

One of my regular hangout place for gathering. Cozy and friendly environment. Drink and food are reasonable. Been here many times. My friends like the place.

Order and food took toooo long to come. The only thing that came fast was the drinks. Didn’t see any live band as was posted

Nice place for a good catch up with friends over good food and beer. The pizza and bar bites are good. Will definitely go there again.

I have been coming here with my friends for the past few months, and it’s the fact that they serve Kilkenny, Guinness from tap, and other premium beers like Erdinger that we keep coming back to this joint. Fact that they also serve some of our favorite staples like ribeye and salmon steaks with a decent dose of hospitality made us decide on making it our regular hang out place. However, all that changed since our visit there last night. We showed up around 6.30pm and were ushered to our seats, and without second thoughts ordered our usual Kilkenny 1 for 1 for happy hour. Now guess what? They don’t serve Kilkenny anymore, neither do they stock Erdinger for that matter. We were down to Guinness as the only option and decided to get 3 sets for a start as there were only 3 of us yesterday. What came next caught all of us off guard - they don’t offer 1 for 1 anymore. Since we have already parked our vehicles and seated, we just went along with the regular priced draught. When we were ready to order our main courses, we realized the menu had been changed, and our favorite ribeye and other finger foods are no longer on the menu. What happened next was the reason for me to pen this review. A different floor staff came and asked if we would like to have our second 1 for 1, after seeing our first glasses were almost empty; to which we all politely nodded. Can anyone tell me why the double standard here? The first waiter who told us no was a male, in his early 30s perhaps, with a grumpy demeanor and short temper. The other whose behavior somewhat hinted an acknowledgement that we are regulars is a female in her late 20s perhaps, with a pleasant disposition. Okay, long story short, we had our food and beer and continued with our conversation until we pressed the service button on our table for some attention to have the balance of our Guinness pints served. As we were being ignored for some time, the service button was pressed again a few times after that - and the next thing we knew, that same male waiter in his 30s stormed up to our table and yelled in a threatening manner: “Hey!! You guys keep pressing the button for fun is it????” We quietly requested that the rest of our pints be served and he left grumpily. Even if my friend had been a bit enthusiastic with pressing the service button, I don’t think that kind of hostility is called for. The double standard, absence of staples like grill favorites and our choice of beers made us decide on dropping this place in future. Our bill came to over $200/- for 3 pax, which I promptly paid and left. Will we recommend this place? Not a chance in hell. Not until you people get your act together. Disgusted!

Frequent this place many times. Price is reasonable and staff are friendly. Food is good especially the lamb shank. Will go back to this restaurant again.

Took some time for the servers to notice us to order drinks and food or order another round of drinks when sitting out door.

Perhaps, the waiters and waitresses could have come quicker to the table when we pressed the "service" button but they may be busy so it's ok! Great food and cocktails along with great music from the live band! Will definitely be back with friends! :)

Food was Reasonably priced and there is a 1 for 1 offer on drinks up to 8pm. The Friday evening band plays pretty good stuff too.

Nice place. Boss friendly. Waiters who served us we're fabulous. Most importantly Donny the Singer was superb. We enjoyed our night very much. Would definitely recommend others to visit.

nice ambience and great food!! very suitable for small to large groups....great great great great great great great great great great great great great great

Drinks and food prices are reasonable. However sitting outdoors for me is not very conducive due to mosquitoes. Need to replenish toilet paper in the female toilets. Otherwise, location around east coast is ok except i live far away and got to travel a bit to get there.

Good vibes and services. Drinks were priced at an affordable price.
