People's I believe reviews have to be balanced & are a snapshot of one's own, personal experience.
Had a dinner in a warm, friendly atmosphere especially enjoying the singing & guitar entertainment. Started with a really nice, delicious mulled wine.
My better half had a really nice, flavoured chicken chimuchirri dish with a generous sized extra seving of fresh vegetables. However I had a very creamy fettucine pasta dish that was very bland in flavour & was really disappointing. Well worth a visit for lunch or dinner.

Nice place to eat, staff were very helpful, polite and friendly. Playlist of background music was a highlight. Chowder was very good with prawns and a big scallop. I can never understand why the shell is left on a chowder prawn but it is fairly universal...Good value chowder none the less. The lamb salad was sadly a bit of a let down despite being very nicely presented. Chewy lamb to the point that it was left. Overall would dine here again but would avoid the lamb salad. $120 for 2 adults and 2 children.

The staff were very friendly, service was quick but the food just had no flavour. I had chicken schnitzel with nachos on top ( I know, it doesn't make sense and I'm not sure why I ordered it) but chicken wasn't seasoned and all I could taste from the nachos was the sour cream..... the wine was great ??'?

Had a great dinner at Monteith's! The service was great with friendly staff and quick service. Highly recommend the cocktails. Although the potions were large, the food is awesome. We're looking forward to eating the leftovers for lunch tomorrow!

Came to Monteiths Hanmer for Sunday lunch.
Now I saw some not so great reviews, but I like to formulate my own opinions before passing judgement.
My experience was fantastic, staff were fantastic, attentive and pleasant. Even apologized for a wait on food that was well within acceptable levels.
The food was solid, great plate of fish and chips. Well cooked fish, well cooked fries.
I would recommend giving this place a shot if you're in Hanmer.
I know I'd would come back here.

This was close to a 4 star only because the bacon well well over cooked, I don't mind a little crispy but it was crunchy to the point every fork stab created 8 different shards of bacon ):

But it was tasty and the service was very good from all the girls that served us and the food prep was VERY fast.

Really friendly welcoming staff who poured a good beer and make a delicious mulled wine. Sat in front of the fire to heat up - Couldn't ask for more. If we hadn't already had dinner I think this would make a good spot to eat as well.

Arrived and got a seat very quickly, service was prompt. Our drinks were absolutely delicious and one of our mains was nice also, however there was an issue with my meal being undercooked. The manager dealt with it really well and we were impressed at the efforts to remedy. Cheesecake for dessert was out of this world, would definitely recommend trying it!

Understandably busy night. They got us a table reasonably quickly. Let us know about the wait time. Then the food arrived. The pork chops were cooked well but for something advertised as seasoned....not a lot of flavour. The seafood basket was very average. Mostly overcooked and the fries were saturated in oil.
Have had better food here. Tonight was not that night.

Had a wonderful dinner here. There was a live musician playing who was very entertaining playing all the old classics like "the gambler."

We chose a seafood platter which was simply superb. Great Flavours, only the cod thing was battered, scallops and prawns tasted awesome. Definitely big enought to feed 3 happily.

One down side was a glass was broken on the floor and cleaned in too much of a rush. we could still see shards on glass which should have been vacuumed.

Would recommend going and will come again for the seafood platter

We came here twice on our trip. Had the lunch specials that go right up till 5pm which was great because we were there about 4pm one day and it's that annoying time where most places stop serving food at 3pm. Not here though! Staff were friendly, it was nice and warm inside - you could sit where you wanted. Meals were served hot, were huge and delicious! Garlic bread was bloody good, second time we tried it with the cheese dip - do yourself a favour and get it. Only downside is that you wanted more of it haha. Really recommend Monteith's! They were also child friendly - we didn't have any but saw kids there having a great time. I had the fried chicken both times which was delicious and came with a side salad (was huge & great value for $19), husband had ribs the first time and blue cod fish & chips the second - I sampled both and they were really good!
