The Burwood Inn

Newcastle

We haven’t been for quite awhile to the Burwood, it still is the best steak restaurant in Newcastle hands down, the service was pretty good and we enjoyed our meal there. Yes it is not the cheapest steak, however they come with green beans & a few large potato wedges, so there is no real need to order sides, but they will satisfy big eaters, enjoy.

Best Steaks in Newcastle

For the cost of a night's stay, it was worth it, the food was absolutely exceptional, I had the Lamb Cutlets which were cooked beautifully, and the Mash was just perfect, my other half had one of the steaks, and it looked absolutely mouthwatering, he enjoyed it thoroughly! The staff were awesome, very outgoing, but laid back at the same time, could see how much they worked as a team, and had fun doing it. The room was pretty cool, awesome comfortable King Sized bed! Only complaints would be that they didn't have any ensuites, or kitchenettes, the bathrooms and kitchen were down the hall de-tatched from the rooms, needing to pee more than once during the night after a few bevvys was a bit of a sport, lol. And no balcony, I understand it's a smoke free place, but also making it smoker friendly would have scored it a 10 outta 10 from us. Overall, great area, awesome music, and people. Fantastic food. Was a lovely place to spend my birthday, so we're giving it an 8 out of 10.

Was great, except...

Very disappointed! $32 for a slice of eggplant, a few ribbons of carrots & a tiny serve of rice. I complained and there was no response. My hubby paid $48 for a steak & 6 fat chips. We’re not big eaters, but we went to McDonald’s on our way home nc we were both still hungry. Will never go back!

Terrible value for $$$

Very disappointing overpriced for a very ordinary small tasteless meal.Such a shame, much better hotels to choose from to eat at. Felt that the sitting time was rushed. The staff were friendly and did offer a complimentary drink or to re-order when mentioned that the meal was disappointing and not what was expected.  Unfortunately the other guests would have finished their meals before I received a new dish.

Below Expectations

The Burwood Inn was host venue to hold this wine tasting evening.
Wonderful relaxing decor coupled with faststic steaks and produce all combined to cellerbrate this wine event.
Best steaks in Newcastle.
Top shelf dining, it's more like a restaurant than a pub.
Very nice and offers a wine list to well accompany all food.

Margan Wine Degustation

For what was quite an overly expensive steak, it was quite a letdown. Most of my table ordered steaks that came out cold, mixed up in terms of how we asked it to be cooked, and to be honest, after all the hype they just weren’t that good. The price was definitely not worth it. 

Below average at best 

Very good steaks. They are justifiably proud of those. Appetizers are very good as well. Everything was well seasoned and presented 
I would like to see the option of French fries/skinny fries rather than just potato wedges. 
Weird thing that all drinks must be collected and paid for separately from the bar. That is inconvenient. 
Perhaps the restaurant part is operated independently. 
A bit noisy to have a conversation. 
Nevertheless,  a nice evening with good and fairly priced food.

Great steak

First restaurant meal after 3 months of COVID-19 Lockdown and it was a Saturday lunch at the Burwood Inn for 3 of us on the Queens Birthday Long Weekend.
Booked well ahead to make sure we got in with the numbers restrictions, and got the later lunch seating at 1.30pm. We got seated in the bistro area which is nice and light and bought our drinks at the bar - Stone & Wood Pacific Ale Tao beer, and a bottle of Margan Shiraz from the Hunter Valley, and we had steaks all round which we all agreed were perfect.
So yes, the Burwood Inn is as good as ever.
Loved it.

Just as good after 3 months of Lockdown

Can’t complain with the accomodation. Very clean room, cool aircon, straight above the main bar but couldn’t hear it. Shared bathroom was modern and clean with monsoon shower heads. 4 bathrooms for 8 rooms so no waiting. Had a great steak in the dining room downstairs. I’ll definitely be back.

Clean, comfortable, convenient

We have dined here few times under the old management and also current. The last two times we’ve been here we’ve had to wait for our table ( 7. & 7.30pm time slots) only to find the restaurant partly empty when we are seated. It seems that once a table has been allocated the staff are unable to give you a table even though there are empty tables. We were party of four.
We noticed that once seated some tables remained empty throughout our meal?
It’s also annoying that you have to purchase drinks at the bar and if you purchase a bottle of wine the bar staff ask if you are dining in restaurant. If you are, you are told that you’ll be given glasses by your waitress at the table. Well this doesn’t work because once you told to take a seat until your table is ready you don’t have a glass to use while you wait. So you’ll need to go back to bar to get glasses. This was the same under old management. If your table is ready there is no issue.
My advice is to check you table is ready before you purchase drinks.
Our entrees we’re ok, ribs excellent but steaks a bit ordinary as not well cooked. No char marks at all it was like the grill wasn’t hot enough or steaks were turned way too early.
Disappointed so hopefully it improves.
