Fabulous food and fantastic service! We dined in the courtyard one autumn evening here. Nice atmosphere. The staff were extremely helpful and nice! Our egg and dairy allergies were well catered for. We ordered a few shared plates. Both my kids enjoyed the steak so much, the adults didn’t get to have any. They even ate all the vegetables that came with the steak; my son described the mushrooms as ‘so delicious, they tasted like grapes!’ The mussels were moist and flavoursome, best I’ve ever had. The panna cotta was dairy free, and so delicious, we had to order 2! Everything we ordered was good! We highly recommend this place! Thank you for the lovely evening!

Love coming here each and every time. Cocktails - amazing. Food - always so tasty. Atmosphere is really nice too. Most of the staff are super friendly and helpful. Hopefully the restriction on number of guests can increase so as not to turn away patrons.
Okay. This review is based purely on the set menu option that is reserved for groups. The food available to our group was predetermined so there was no menu to choose from on the night, but we were expecting great things since this restaurant had a good reputation. Unfortunately I have to say the food was ordinary at best. Our starters were underwhelming and set the tone for what was to come. First to arrive was some fish. Whiting I think. It was cured and had a zesty topping that covered the blandness of the fish, which itself tasted like it was from the freezer rather than fresh. Next came some shrimps, not prawns, deep fried in their exoskeletons and accompanied by a meagre helping of dipping sauce. The shrimps were insipid and lacked that distinctive prawn flavour. Also, chewing through a crunchy exoskeleton isn't a pleasurable experience when the tougher parts constantly get stuck between your teeth. It was a really lazy starter. There was no imagination in its presentation either. Just dumped in a bowl with the dressing in a ramekin dish placed on top. On to the mains, and they were no better. The beef / steak strip I had was at least one third fat / gristle; that was nicely disguised by a spicy coating of some description. Nothing worse than biting into a piece of beef then realising you've got to discretely get rid of it into a napkin. The rest of the dishes weren't much better either. All just ordinary. Even the simple dishes like chips had no flair to them. How hard is it to do twice cooked chips, beer battered chips, chunky chips or crinkle cut chips? The only dish of note that looked like it had been shown some love was the simplest dish on the table: a large leaf salad. Not the memory you want when you're paying 65 a head. If you have a group of people to feed, and you want fine dining go check out Whitney's Restaurant & Bar.
What a wonderful experience. Last week my husband and I stopped here for lunch and wow!! The food was just superb. The service by the staff was not only welcoming but also professional, patient and considerate of new customers. Situated in a nondescript spot you'd expect, (wrongly), not many people could find it. But this is one place I'd recommend to visit. Even better if you leave the kids behind and have a lovely evening (or lunch even), together. The mussels were amazing and I'm shocked to say, as one who dislikes them, I actually enjoyed the olives. Oh and the wine. Just delicious. Please visit this one, they deserve the business!. On a side note, it's restaurant pricing so have cash to spend. Try this place pronto
All the dishes tasted amazing and unique. Octopus is tender, sauce is rich and nutty. Pork is so juicy and tender, crispy on the outside and cook perfectly. Beef sirloin with cheese on top is flavorful,also perfectly cook. Dishes in large portion. Wait for about 20mins for dishes and not much guest there so would be a long wait if full house. Chips came late with main was a bit confusing and octopus was the earlier dish..Sitting outdoor was a bit cold in a rainy day even a covered area. Over all a great, must try restaurant in Orange.
The food at both the Union Bank courtyard and restaurant is always delicious and impressive. School prawns FTW. The staff are really lovely and down-to-earth. They are so warm and welcoming every time — whether they’re quiet or run off their feet. I love recommending the Union Bank to every visitor I know.
Majestic outdoor courtyard with a lit-up tree and great drink selection. Perfect summer afternoon vibes. The bone marrow was scrumptious
The Schoolhouse Restaurant! If you accept that a 45 two course offering being charged at 60 is their version of delivering dining perfection then by all means make a booking. This was a big disappointment We were a group of four and two of us had thick fish fillets delivered still raw in the centre and even after a second attempt one was still raw again. Poor value unfortunately.
