The Main - Food VIC

Abbey Dockrey This pizza restaurant has ruined other pizza experiences for my husband and I. Nothing compares! Food is wonderful, both take away and in house. Always reasonably fast and staff are always friendly. From my 8 year old son: I give the food a 4/5. I recommend the de polo. From my 6 year old daughter: I think the carbonara is great. I think the pizza is amazing.

Kate 64 I’m back in this area after many years away, trying out all the cafes to find my ‘locals’; I’m a writer, so spend a lot of time in cafes. Eltham has a number of great places including Third Chapter, which I’ve now visited twice and I’m impressed. Last weekend it was absolutely pouring, I had a dripping wet umbrella, and still I was warmly welcomed and assisted with where to put it. My preference for table was accommodated. The coffee was super quick and good and not too hot (bogans love extra hot but it’s not how you drink real coffee). The food came much quicker than I took choosing it - great menu. The ambience was lovely and the crowd was a real mix. I was very happy with my fritters on both visits. But what really impressed me here was the service; very warm, efficient and brisk and water on the table asap without asking. That first welcome is so important in hospitality. The vibe is relaxed but with beautiful decor - the woods are gorgeous, and the people watching is second to none. The beautiful wing back armchairs make it awesome for couples or a catch up with a buddy. A fab find for me which I highly recommend. Make sure you have their pumpkin sourdough - it’s really special. The name of the restaurant has a backstory and it tells you you’re in good hands. Experience + commitment really shines.

Luke Villani Love this place, as a local I just love it. Good food.....( Wood fire pizza) ,good service great drinks with a unreal atmosphere. Fri and sat they have bands on. And not hard to fall in love with this place

Ishan Mutaliph Went back after during another visit to Melbourne. Maintaining the same quality of food, service and atmosphere and have introduced more dine in options. Amazing stuff

Rebecca G This hotel has really improved over the years! One of the better pubs in the area. Definitely good price for the meal size you get!

Seán Maher Recently ate here when visiting from Ireland, some of the nicest dishes I’ve had on my travels. The staff were beyond friendly, and the atmosphere was so welcoming. Great food (we ordered a mix and every one of them was great) - will get back again before I go!

Heath Kyriakou Authentic Mexican food, friendly staff, great looking shop. An amazing addition to the area!!

Phoebe Chan It is definitely the place to go if you want genuine Cantonese cuisine. The price is amazingly reasonable with such high quality yummy dishes. To my surprise, no MSG was found in their cooking which could only be achieved with absolutely fresh food. It takes me an hour to be up there but I became a regular customer because they never disappoint me ; Not a single time . This is a restaurant NOT to be missed out .

Sophie K We really the quality authentic Italian antipasto and wood-fired pizza. You know a restaurant should be good if it is very busy! We are glad we went and enjoyed the night out.

Joel F We love this place. Eat in or take away, it’s always 10/10. Tonight we ordered takeaway and specified “spicy please”. They gave us a small tub of chilli with our sauces and omg was it spicy!! If it was added it would have ruined the dish but the fact they gave it to us as a side which allowed us to add as much spice as we liked, is just another example of how they prioritise the quality of their food. By far our favourite “cheap eat” in Eltham.
