    I want to write a rubbish review because I don't want people coming here. I want to keep it to myself. Stay away, its terrible, not worth the drive. Seriously its like I have a bar in my lounge room with great people and food. If I have a heart attack here I'm going to make sure I have a DNR in my will coz this would be the place to fall off the perch, or on the golf course.

    Nice to see that the Morning Star Hotel has returned to its roots as a fantastically vibrant local pub. Great front bar, excellent dining room and brilliant beer garden. Love that the original bathrooms are still in tack, complete with patterned wall tiles from the 70’s. Worth a visit for sure.

    Not great! It was very very noisy! The food was a bit ordinary and the staff were pretty uninterested. They need to lift their game and work a bit harder

    Appallingly noisy, it was like a zoo. Very unpleasant, hard to have a conversation and there were only 4 of us. Will not be back, solely for this reason. Very disappointing. We were looking forward to the new look MS, it’s within walking distance too. Ho hum. Once more Williamstown fails to deliver a good dining option. Yarraville and elsewhere here we come…again.

    Recently revamped with a funky 70s feel. Menu was unexpected and delicious. Beverage options plentiful and meeting the food matching brief.
