Birthday Brunch

Sept 2020 • none

We went here on Thursday morning for Brunch for my birthday. Overall we had an nice time. We were quick to be helped and the food came out really quickly. My order was suppose to have cheese but they forgot so I asked and they brought it and also was one slice of bread but two was specified. They did give me a free ice cream for my birthday. The quality of the food was nice but don't know if I will go to the restaurant again and do not think I will recommend it Nice play area though for older kids

An beautiful unexpected night out

Feb 2021 • couples

An amazing spot with incredible food. After a full bottle of wine we had a seafood platter for two that, on top of prawns and calamari in excellent batter, also had crumbed mushrooms and chicken wings. The dessert was fantastic and made for a very well rounded and full experience. Would definitely urge patrons to support this lovely gem.

Relaxing Relish Bistro

Aug 2021 • none

Visited Relish Bistro with my mom today. She cannot walk very far and the staff were very accomodating about parking and placing us at a table that she could manage. A lovely atmosphere, outdoor seating, play section for kids and on a Sunday entertainment. We had an excellent saxophonist who just made the whole vibe mellow. My only complaint is that the food took a long time to arrive. We were so hungry by the time it did but, the wait was worth it. Prawns the best ever, schnitzel and veggies so tasty and her carer had a breakfast which looked delicious. Very friendly staff,. I would highly recommend the Relish Bistro - just don't be in a hurry!

With nothing special pleading a return visit, this was our last visit to the restaurant.

Jan 2020 • none

Situated next to Burgers Park in Hatfield, we have only been to this venue a couple of times before since they have opened. It always seemed to be accommodating with a large playing area for kids as well as being a popular venue for gentleman going for a “working” lunch or young groups of men going out for drinks. For this visit we were greeted by the friendly staff, who seated us outside. While we decided what we wanted for our early supper we ordered some wine. Sometime later our waiter returned with the news that they unfortunately did not have that wine in stock (we know in the food industry when it is early in the year some stockists are slow to start) so we ordered a different bottle of wine. Finally a waiter, who I assumed is the barman, came to our table with “testers” for us to try. After various discussions with the barman, he was finally able to explain that the 2nd bottle was also out of stock. We ordered a 3rd choice of wine (after confirming it to be in stock). We refrained from trying the testers (they were from existing open bottles and we were never showed the actual bottles). With the arrival of the wine we ordered a Poutine and a Pizza. The poutine (which is the Quebec / Canadian word for potato chips with a topping or gravy) had a topping of chorizo / chourico, feta, pickled chillies, corn and a light cheese sauce. The ingredients were all fresh and worked well with the crispy potato chips, which were thickly sliced to prevented it from becoming soggy. The pizza was topped with brisket (a first for us, and the reason for us ordering it), feta and fresh avocado. The brisket was quite nice, being tasty and soft. Unfortunately the base of the pizza was unpleasantly thick and tasteless due to it being pan baked. After we had finished our food and wine and with our waiter missing, we had to go to the front in search of our waiter who had been pre-occupied with the rolling of cutlery in napkins. With each visit we were never overwhelmed nor underwhelmed by the atmosphere, the service or the food. They have a wide variety of dishes on their menu, which have become increasingly expensive since our last visit (this being during the winter months 2019). Plenty other restaurants offer the same dishes (at better prices and better quality) and a better standard of service. With nothing special pleading a return visit, this most likely was our last visit to the restaurant.

Awesome service and Super kid friendly

Apr 2021 • none

I take my kid to relish cause he loves the employees and they treat him like their own kid. Brighton is most of the time my waiter and really awesome service rendered all the time. If you have kids and want to spend a good day out, then go to relish. They have horses and rabbits at times so my kid enjoys that moments at Relish. All the care givers at the restaurant are brilliant with kids and their play area is super cool and safe for kids to play. Your guys are doing an awesome job and never change. The food is okay but that is the price you paying for. The ambiance and the guest that come there are also very friendly.

Nice area to take kids, a bit dissapointing

May 2023 • none

We came here as family with our kids for a brunch. The childrens play area is really nice but does definitely need some maintenance and would be amazing if they had someone to watch the kids. The coffee was decent not the best but not the worst. The food was average. I had a chicken mayo panini which was not toasted and I asked for extra cheese and didnt get nice fresh grated cheese, no just a piece of processed cheese popped on top which was really not nice. So really a average type of day.

Poor food and service

Jan 2023 • friends

We went to visit with family and friends and our children. The service was very poor, food quality appalling and left feeling dissapointed, especially as its such a beautiful setting and has a wonderful play area for the children. I won't be visiting again, and feel something needs to be done to improve.

Wonderful place cannot get enough of it!!!!

Oct 2020 • couples

I really enjoyed the friendly and wonderful service at Relish. The food courtesy of Chef Jacky was amazing coupled with the fantastic service from the waiter Francis and Manager Godfrey. I had Eisben and it was cooked to perfection😁. The space is big so given the circumstances it offers a cosy place for lunch and dinner with the family. I highly enjoy my time at Relish Bistro and also can't wait to come back 😁😁😁

Good value for money, good service and good food!!!

Nov 2020 • none

Kamdon served us, friendly and well mannered guy. Ask for him when you get to Relish! Charles backed him to always make sure we where helped. My son could play his heart out on their huge jungle gym. As his parent, I could join in the fun, that's how man size it is! When I wanted to rest, there was someone to take over and keep my son entertained and safe. We had a good time and will for sure be back!!! Thank you guys!!!

Relaxed lunch

Jan 2022 • none

This bistro offers a tranquil outdoor setting, good service and excellent value with their more than generous portions and reasonable prices. Our stellar lunch experience at Relish was a pleasant surprise.
