    Really disappointed in the menu options for children. Asked staff if I could purchase a senior meal for my child who can not eat a full size adult meal. Was told no only for seniors. Why can I not spend more money than the kids meals? The senior menu offers far more variety than the boring children’s menu which is the same thing at every pub. I do not want to return to this establishment due to the bland and boring kids menus. We have visited numerous other restaurants in the area who are more than willing to allow children to purchase from the seniors menu. We shall take our business there in the future.

    Hi Lauren, we appreciate your feedback, thank you. We have passed this on to the kitchen and management team to look into.

    We always love parklands tavern but yesterday wasn’t up to the usual standard. Our 7 meals came with fries which were cold and mums seniors fish and chips normally has an option of crumbed or battered which has disappeared. In saying this it is our go to even celebrated my dad’s wake in the birdcage … the staff are always lovely and I think yesterday wasn’t just a blip

    I love the place, the food is always great. This time was a little disappointing though. I ordered the Parklands Bowl, which delicious but not big enough at $24.
