What Mike J likes about AB Hotel:

The main focus of this establishment now is catering to Chinese Tourist busses that come for the bistro and poker machines. It doesn't really feel like a pub at all anymore, sadly. The tap beer range is ok, though overpriced. Some of the staff are friendly while others treat you like you're an unwanted distraction as they struggle with not having slept the past 3 nights.

This restaurant seems to have mixed reviews, with some customers expressing frustration over the lack of EFTPOS, outdated pricing, and poor ambiance. However, others have enjoyed the spot for catch-ups, Sunday sessions, and vegetarian options like salt pepper tofu. The food and drinks service received feedback for being modern, with a mention of the Korean Fried Chicken being a standout dish. Despite some issues with cash-only payments and service, the staff appears to be friendly and attentive. The establishment also offers a rotating selection of craft beers, with a possible outdoor area for kids to play. Overall, it seems like a decent place to visit for a casual meal or drinks with friends, but improvements in various areas could enhance the dining experience.

We were there for a Christmas party function. The food and drink were nice and the staff were friendly. It wasn't too crowded and had good atmosphere.

Try the Laksa ..... Big, big serving of laksa. And it's good. Authentic. Nice place for a meal on a lazy hot Sydney afternoon.
