Great service.. very friendly and efficient. great food... amazing tapas. Want to go back to try all the rest on the menu. Really nice and cosy atmosphere.
Great food and service. We’ve eaten here many times and it’s always excellent. In my opinion Down The Hatch is the only decent restaurant in Joondalup unfortunately.
Great tasting food cooked really well. Service was fast. Restaurant was clean and family friendly. Colouring for the kids if needed. Food won the day. Overall ambience was pleasant.
The staff were helpful and friendly, we liked the atmosphere and the food was good. It was good to see a busy restaurant on a Sunday evening
Excellent meal as usual , food delicious, service amazing and friendly, ambiance relaxing and welcoming. Good value for money. Down the Hatch is consistent in delivering delicious food, excellent presentation and service. Friendly with a personal touch. We love this place

Really great vibe, very cosy and comfortable. Very friendly and welcoming staff. Food was incredible! Great quality and decent sized portions so you definitely get your monies worth. Really enjoyed it.
Down the Hatch has evolved into a busy bar with a fine dining experience where the food is delicious with excellent service. Can't wait to go there again ★★★★★
We had the arancini to start,they were ok ,pretty bland,my partner had the beer battered fish n chips and the fish was rather greasy and the tartare sauce had no flavour, i had the tbone,cooked perfect, the coleslaw had red onion which was way overpowering, service and price tho were great so its a 3 from me
Great food, great service just a tad noisy the night I was there but there was a birthday celebration. Would definitely go back. As I say the staff are fantastic.
Tapas was brilliant, service the same....was an enjoyable dinner with my daughter...I will take the rest of the family to experience this restaurant.....yum yum yum
Fantastic and gorgeous hostess, she intuitively knew to provide space and also assistance at right time...food was great coupled with relaxing atmosphere. All in all would highly recommend.
It was an hour before we got our food then the order was wrong and cold we eat it as we were hungry We were looking forward to the evening with friends who hadn’t been before and not sure will go again Not enough staff serving and one clearly hadn’t got a glue what she was doing
Service, atmosphere and food were all exceptional. Only negative was it was a little too noisey to be comfortable. However, Down The Hatch is our new favourite and we will definitely be returning.
We had a great time. The portions are huge and the service was excellent. Even though the bar area was nicely busy the restaurant acoustics were perfect.
Great food relaxed atmosphere and great staff as well.would definitely reccomend.we had tapas for 4 people with 5 dishes which was plenty then they gave us an extra plate to try.fantastic
Wonderful food, as always. Service impeccable- friendly & generous. We have been back many times & will continue- warm & cosy- great ambience. Love it!!

My wife was so looking forward to going to celebrate her birthday. It didn’t disappoint, really enjoyable and already talking about when we will be back next!

Charming wine and tapas bar restaurant. Music not overbearing, great. Food hot and fresh. Service impeccable and great wines. Will be going back for sure.
We absolutely loved this gem of a place, the decor is cool, music perfect and at the right level...service was fantastic and the food to die for, we just about wanted to lick our plates ........we will be back for certain..
Great service and food. Nice and quiet, good for a quiet date with good sharing food to enjoy. Lots of variety of food also to enjoy
The food was very good with generous serves. We ordered from the Tapas selection which was extensive. The wine menu (by the glass) was limited but enough to choose from. Friendly service at a reasonable price.
Excellent food and friendly staff would highly recommend lovely place. The food was fresh tasty and reasonably priced. Nice restaurant and cozy bar area. Will definitely return.
The food was food, the service was excellent and atmosphere on New Years Eve was fantastic, just what we wanted to see the New Year in
Great place, small but great food and service. Steaks were cooked to perfection and good choice of sides to go with it. Would go back again
Took our son and his wife for a meal there, had a lovely evening, atmosphere and lady serving were excellent. Only our second time there and this time the steaks weren't as good as the first time. My sons wife ordered hers to be rare but it was more like medium rare. The potatoes with the steaks I felt were a little on the small size. We will still go again though.
Food was good, the snapper was a tad too salty for us but overall we enjoyed our meal. We will definitely be back again. Service was attentive and friendly even for a very busy Friday night.
Excellent service great food and wonderful vibe recommend the steak Cocktails were well made and service was quick and professional Lovely little bar highly recommended
Good food. Fantastic service. Very reasonable on price. The ambiance was very good. I really like that you can sit and take your time with the meal and not feal as though the staff want you out in a hury
Delicious food, thanks to an awesome chef, all cooked on premises and great customer service, lovely part of town, close to all public transport too!
One of my favourite places. Great food and great staff. If you need gluten free there are lots of choices as well. Absolutely recommend this place.
The food is consistently very good, the service always attentive and the atmosphere is very good. We keep going back and are never disappointed. Will be visiting there again soon.
Overall the atmosphere was great and wine selection good. The food however lacked in flavour and was very bland. We ordered medium rare steaks and received a cold rare steak with no juices flowing which was disappointing. The waitresses didn't find time to ask how our meal was and even when paying did not ask the question. When you're paying $45 for a steak we would expect a simple "how was your meal" we didn't receive anything until they felt it necessary after payment. The waitress did however apologise at this point and offered us some wines which was a good gesture. The customer service was just a little late for me given the prices we were paying. Would go again for drinks, not for food.
Great location for this type of venue. Service and food was fantastic. Food was tasty and hot. Highly recommended. Will definitely be back again to enjoy the ambience.
Great Menu. Great service. Very friendly atmosphere. Will definitely be going again because we really must try to get through the whole Tapas menu :) Thank you for a very pleasant evening.
Excellent service and food, every dish had great presentation and tasted amazing, such a great little place to eat, will definitely be back. Thank you
Fantastic food, lovely environment, great music but a bit loud when eating and talking. Reasonable prices, definitely will go again friends enjoyed it and will return
Top food had barramundi with lentils and pancetta very good perfectly cooked - nice place great service menu could be better but with a veggie wife we ate variois starters and all food was very good well done Down the Hatch an actual decent place in Joondalup is a big bonus
Good venue and great food. The coffee was the only thing that wasn't up to par. It was cold and you can only get flat white or black.
Fantastic food and drinks served by pleasant, friendly staff. I will return soon to sample some of the other gems this place has to offer.
Great food, basic dare meat and fish but all cooked to perfection. Tapas was varied and had some interesting items on it, will have a go at that on our next visit. Beer and spirit selection more than adequate, great atmosphere and the staff were excellent.
