We had 2 tables booked but they were placed away from each other. We asked to swapa table but they were unable too. Restaurants need to understand and take into consideration some families are bigger than 20 people. They dont want to sit in different sections they want to enjoy time as a family. Bookings of 20 is ridiculous. When it comes to big families.

A place we frequently visit. Only issue with this visit was the 40 minute waiting time for our meals, it was busy, normally we have had wait times of 10-15 mins, otherwise all good.

The food was delicious, the kids milkshakes were yummy. We also had a party there in the morning which was fantastic. It was run smoothly and the least stressful party I’ve hosted for my kids! Would highly recommend having a kids party at Buckleys!

I was going to give it another go but food is overpriced and there is a 2 hour limit. Not only do they tell you abruptly at the beginning (when you get the 10 minute warning (rudely) and they start to clean up not even before your sitting finishes with daggers from the staff that your still sitting at the table trying to pack up! You pay for the ice cream the staff member doesn’t even greet you just says $25 and then goes back into the kitchen without a goodbye or thankyou. This place isn’t worth it even for the playground

Took over an hour for food to come out which isn’t ideal especially when there’s young children that need to go to be early.

Little disappointing, the food was ok but not the greatest for the price. $28 for a souvlaki and it was pretty much just a heap of lettuce and lamb. The kids playground is pretty cool but unfortunately too big for our 2yr old. I would say ages 4 and up. The staff aren’t the friendliest either

Staff were all super friendly and helpful. Outstanding service tonight actually. Only complaint is Buckley’s has minimal vegetarian options that are also gf. Unless you like pizza or nachos. Also dessert for gf has always been lacking and tonight the icecream machines weren’t working so no dessert. Not end of the world but Buckley’s seriously needs to look at how inclusive their menu is.

Friendly staff, good food and an excellent play space for the kids. We ordered our dessert a little late and staff were very accommodating and politely moved us to the al fresco area so we didn't need to rush. Lovely evening and highly recommend.

Food was delicious!! The kids playroom needs to be more supervised so the 12 and 15 yr old kids aren’t running over the little kids.

Not all Buckley fault, but the table behind was disgraceful, throwing food, loud swearing, it felt like we were just left to deal with it. More people standing around them than they had chairs, just crowding ours and bumping us why we were trying to eat. Feel like maybe security needed to calm and settle them down.

It was a late booking at 8:15. Upon arriving on time at 8:15pm we were inform we had to order straight away as the kitchen closes at 8:30pm. Very disappointed to know that a restaurant accepts table bookings up until 15minutes before the kitchen closes, which forced us to decide on what to eat before we could even sit down. We all decided to have steak since we couldn't spend any time actually having a look at the menu. The steak looked good and rare as ordered but was thoroughly disappointed when I took a bite and it had the appearance of being rare (super pink and juicy) but actually tatst f almost well done as it was really chewy and hard to eat, couldn't even eat half of it. The potatoes were barely cooked as they were still a little hard and weren't soft and fluffy. The expensive cocktail had been made with liquors that weren't on the list of ingredients and made the martini almost undrinkeable and had to be taken back to be "fixed up" just mask the unpleasant taste instead of just remaking it correctly, which was very disappointing!

Great place for the kids, stopped for dinner before a night sailing on the spirit of tasmania. Great value compared to the other dining experiences we had during our week in melbourne. Desert bar was a hit with the kids. Recommend
