Well, we had just finished a long drive from Melbourne along the Great Ocean Road and my friend had…read morebeen harping on about having some fish and chips ever since we left Lorne, so after unloading at the motel we went for a drive around Warrnambool to try and find a place to grab a bite to eat - and this was the only one open. That was the first good thing about the place, and the second was that the servings, not surprisingly, were really really generous. As was typical for me I simply grabbed some chips and dim sims, and they were actually pretty nice (though not outstanding). Okay, it probably wasn't the best place for some fish and chips, but it was open, and they weren't bad, so I'll give it credit for that.

Fish & chips combined with a historical seaside town is one of life's greatest pleasures. It's a…read moresimple yet satisfying combination. After a long road trip or a day at the beach it's with great expectations that travellers swarm to such fine establishments. On arrival the venue was rather full. But a very simple, near naked, menu seemingly had people in and out in reasonable time. The prices here are rather steep but hungry holiday makers will pay near anything for a quick meal. This place was certainly winning on the quick side of service. Pity all joy and elation and a naughty meal stopped there. Having handed over our fine currency for two fish & chip combos I was horrified at what lay waiting in our boxes. The grilled fish looked as if it should have been kissed and released. So tiny. So petite. It was easily dwarfed by the battered fish. Which turned up looking more tan than a Jordy Shore girl, with as much depth and cultural understanding. It's heart was cold despite its superbly deep golden colouring. Our chips hid fried garlic and fresh rosemary. An interesting touch but not listed anywhere. Thankfully neither of us are currently Fodmap. In the end the seagulls sung their sweet song and enjoyed a fine feast.

Save your money, head to Charlies on East instead…read more This place SHOULD be the best venue in town, and visually I won't argue that from an outside perspective it is. A beautiful venue, perched on the Rivers edge with views and the furnishings inside are really nice. But unfortunately that's where it stops. Could your staff be any less competent? Walking into the restaurant, you are not greeted by anyone, it seems there's one poor lass running around taking orders on an ipad and the rest are crammed into the kitchen, and don't they look thrilled about it. There is no warmth in the hospitality and if you manage to catch the wait staff attention you will eventually find yourself seated. Let's be honest this place isn't cheap. But the venue is nice so as holiday goers you don't mind so much as it's part of the experience. I was there with 2 friends and we waited about 15 minutes until we managed to flag the ipad waiter down and we were told we could order our meals at the bar as they were "busier than normal" which was surprising as there were only about 15-20 people in the restaurant. We went to the bar, ordered our meals and ordered wine. And ladies, if you like your wine, save your money for the drive thru on the way home. I'm sorry Wharf management but charging $10 plus for a glass of wine and dispensing less than half your tiny fancy wine glasses didn't make us girls feel much like staying, although being as hungry as we were we waited. And wait we did, about 45 minutes in total for our meals to arrive and here's the breakdown. Risotto: gluggy, watered down and frankly lacking any sort of real flavour. My friend didn't finish it and couldn't even drown her sorrows with wine as after two mouthfuls it was gone, unlike the risotto. Fish and Chips x2 : for a venue who recommended this as the most popular, 2 of us were left so disappointed, the batter is foul and the fish small. Batter wasn't cooked properly and fish on the inside was cold. The chips were fine, but not great and had some kind of seasoning on them? But any old fish and chip shop would do better. We sat there considering how much money we had just handed over and how hungry and disappointed we still were. No one bothered to come and clear our plates, ask us how our meals were or check to see if we wanted to order more drinks. The customer services in non existent and the staff seem miserable and lost, like wandering baby deer in the night. As girls who visit this beautiful little town often, this has to be the most disappointed we've been in terms of eating out. Do yourselves a favour, if you're wanting good fish and chips, the one across from the caravan park is the place to go, leave the fancy décor at the Wharf for what it is, pretty but bland AF. With so many good eats around this town, it doesn't look like the wharf will survive much past this summer unless the seriously get their shit together, start with service, happy chefs and improve their food, wine dispensing and get some better vibes going.

Lots of windows and a beautiful ocean view. Wish it had been warm enough to enjoy the patio but with the rainy and chilly air, we found a nice table inside and near the windows. I chose the pumpkin salad. There was a lot of things in the salad that I wasn't sure I'd like but the combination of everything rocked. It had nice flavors and textures. The roasted pumpkin and chickpeas were a nice contrast in textures. All so good. You sit anywhere and order at the counter. They bring your food. The staff worked well as a team. Great experience.
