The service was fast, service staff were rude. eating was nothing special. we have the seafood plated and it tastes as if it were frozen, not fresh.

The Well is laid back student bar with an old school Americana menu featuring hot dogs, wings and burgers. But my favourite is the dessert platter with chocolate brownie, Nutella cheesecake and banoffee pie in a jar! Good vibes, a cool space and tasty, cheap...eats. A would recommend!

Went in to check out the new haunt at my old haunt. Had the New York Burger, absolutely stellar burger, great composition and quality ingredients. My mate had the pulled pork burger and was equally impressed. Our next visit was on a Wednesday for 50c...Wings (every Wednesday)... It worked out at $7.50 for a kilo of wings... So our $15 of wings each soon seemed excessive. Great flavour in both the bbq and chipotle, well cooked and ridiculously good value. (wish I'd brought my camera to capture the mountains of wings) The place is greatly complimented by the free pool tables and old school arcade cabinet boasting classics like Street Fighter 2 and Metal Slug... Too good.

I have been at the well for lunch and dinner several times and thought it deserves an evaluation for the important contribution to the districts uni canberra and belconnen. service can be a bit variable (it's pretty easy staff, I get the...Impression) but is in the regular friendly. there is a good selection of beer and apple wines (including some local beer) there are a series of food options with preisen of value to moderate. eating the mainly American pub style is well prepared and tasty, with old favorites and some twists on old favorites. the sweet potato friries are a delicious cheaper snack and the burgers are really great. a trip to the campus is worth it.
