The food here is pretty good. Arrives really fast and is quite tasty. Staff are efficient and friendly. Only negatives are that parking is horrendous (so I'd advise coming either early or later) and the place is really noisy. Not somewhere to go for a quiet intimate dinner and the music was too loud which didn't help.

We had a catch up lunch with friends and couldnt have chosen a better place. Something about the atmosphere... even those eating near by... relaxed friendly - it was wonderful. Although busy, the noise level was low enough that conversation was rasy across the table while still private. Indoor & outdoor seating available. The staff were friendly and attentive. Warning - the meals were extremely good generous serving sizes (ladies we took home half in a doggy bag!) Gluten free options made choice easy - or difficult due to the amount of choice! Recommend the cauliflower salad, parmi & fish & chips. Also Gluten Free beer - pale ale. Lift was out of service so check if you need assisted access Will make this a goto place for future!!!

It’s my pleasure to share my great experience during my maiden visit to-The Rowing Pavilion,for lunch with my family on 25th Feb,26 The ambience was great and the whole area was immaculately clean and the view on the Swan river was awesome. As the QR code table ordering was easy and quick to order or you may order at the counter. The service was amazing-our food and drinks were served very fast. We ordered Fish & chips,Chicken and Pumpkin pizza and drinks. The food was delicious and even on working day, it was busy. So if you plan to visit on weekend-you need to book a table in advance, otherwise it’s hard to find a place. It’s location is an ideal and well connected with public transport also.Parking is also available for visitors. The great thing is that lift facility is also available for visitors. All the team members always ready to serve their customers with an honest and sweet smile on their face! No hesitation to refer anyone to visit-The Rowing Pavilion, in future and we fell in love with this place!👍👍

I visited this restaurant yesterday and had such a great experience. The food was absolutely delicious, and the portions were really generous. The view was amazing too, which made everything even better. The staff were attentive and super friendly, which I really appreciated. I definitely recommend making a reservation. After 12pm the place got very busy, and it became quite loud, so it was a bit hard to chat with my friend later on. If the tables were spaced out just a little more, it would feel even more comfortable. Overall, though, it was a lovely spot and I’d happily go back!
