The Plough Inn

We recently visited for lunch and ordered the fish and chips, parmi, hot honey chicken burger, and a meat lovers pizza. Overall, the food was decent in terms of flavour, but there were some clear issues. The pizza, unfortunately, was a letdown — a soggy, floppy mess everywhere except for the crust, like trying to pick up a wet piece of cardboard that just collapses in your hand. The hot honey chicken burger also missed the mark. Despite the name, there was no real heat to it — unless you count the tiny green chilli on top, roughly the size of a paperclip, which felt more like decoration than flavour. Gravy wasnt able to be ordered as an additional with the burger and chips or the fish and chips (barcode ordering). Service left a lot to be desired. While the venue was reasonably busy, it didn’t seem busy enough to justify the lack of attentiveness. We watched our drinks sit on the bar for around eight minutes while floor staff wandered the deck without much direction. One staff member repeatedly circled the same area looking for plates to clear, despite having just done so moments earlier. Our table location also wasn’t ideal. It appeared to double as an informal complaints desk, with multiple patrons approaching staff nearby to raise issues with their meals — including one group who had ordered burgers, only to be told the kitchen had run out of beef patties. On a positive note, the amenities were clean and well-maintained. However, the overall experience fell short, and unfortunately, it’s not somewhere we’d choose to return to.

Ordered a pizza and a fish meal, thought they would come out together. Nope, fish came first and nearly 30 minutes later the pizza came out. It was not very busy at that point and the kitchen and wait staff were chatting. The fish and chips looked ok, presentation was fine. The chips were under the fish. The chips were very hard and dry. One piece of fish was burnt. Didn't complain at the time as was over it. Had asked a passing server a couple of times where the pizza was. Only bright spot was the young apologetic server who finally bought the pizza out Pizza was nice .

I came here with a group of friends for a get-together. We had a booking for 10 people, but one more joined us last minute. We asked for an extra chair, and the staff were very kind and accommodating. After our beers were served, I accidentally knocked over a full glass. Even though I didn’t ask, they brought me a new one, which I really appreciated. I don’t usually write reviews, but the service genuinely impressed me, so I wanted to leave one. The food was also delicious. The only small downside was that the speaker volume was a bit too loud. Other than that, everything was really, really great. I’ll definitely be coming back multiple times while I’m in Brisbane.

We waited 40 mins for our meals, chips were cold parmi was dry, tartare sauce had a hard layer on top due sitting under the heat lights for so long. Men’s toilets absolutely disgusting. Charged a surcharge (it was not a public holiday) then after our meal a text was sent regarding refund of the surcharge.

Great find on Christmas Eve when everything else was closed. Great Pub atmosphere, food was excellent especially the Steak Sandwich, and the staff were friendly, helpful and efficient. Price point excellent. Thanks for working so hard Team while everyone else was clearly on holiday. 😀
