The Prince Wollongong Reviews
We stopped by here for some drinks on a Bucks evening, coincidentally there was a Hen's night visiting here also which made things very interesting. The Prince staff were fantastic in making sure everyone was having a great and safe time. Cannot comment on food here as we only had drinks but the environment and choice of drinks were great. If you head down the stairs there is some space for outdoor dining and/or drinking.

Very popular bar on a Friday and Saturday so book a table or get there early. Awesome selection of wines, craft beers and cocktails. The food is great as well. Definitely try a pizza!

Very average service. Staff seemed a lot more interested in chatting amongst themselves rather than doing their job. Not many customers there when we visited so no excuses at all. Disappointing.

Trying very hard to be casually cool and actually pulling it off, this place is stylish but unpretentious with great happy hour beers and wines. The staff are friendly and only the boss seems to be allowed a beard, which helps ease any sense of hipster desperation to well within tolerable limits.

The cocktails... Just toooo good. I recently moved to Wollongong and by far, this place has been my favorite in terms of the option of drinks. The vibe is good, there was a hen's party happening on one side while the other side had people just vibing to the dj and catching up with their friends. The only bummer is that they don't really have food options HOWEVER, the loaded fries that we ordered came in a big portion and it was really good!

Terribly over priced drinks watered down with too much ice. $19 or $20 for a glass filled with ice and some tasty flavours is not worth it.

Possibly the best spot in Wollongong, whether you’re up for a cheeky cocktail or a sunday vibe with friends the prince is the place to be. Unreal experience with Emily taking care of us during our stay 5/5.

Not a great atmosphere, I cant credit this bar for much except it seems popular.
Maybe the regular patrons aren't aware that there are far better places around in Wollongong, dont get me wrong its not a bad place but at 15 bucks during happy hour for a Jug that only fills 2 schooners what's the point guys? I sat there for enough time to finish my jug then immediately went on the hunt for a better establishment in the area. Pricey. Not very comfortable with seating arrangements, not my idea of a good selection of music being played on the system, not necessarily even my idea of comfortable with the people I was surrounded by.
All of these are my own opinions and im sure if you're into similar places or a similar atmosphere to me you won't spend much time here either. But I cant bring myself to give them a positive rating as I felt bored, paid too much for my beer and dont think the decor even suited the surrounds.

I love this place but it's far from perfect.
The music is great, the drinks are yummy, the waiters are really lovely. They also do cool little theme nights like board game nights and D&D nights.
Unfortunately there's never enough seating for everyone in the place so you'll often stand around for ages waiting for two people at a 10-person table to leave so you can snag a spot. Table service also takes FOREVER and more than once I've given up and simply gone back to the bar half an hour later to find my drinks just sitting there waiting for me.
Despite that, I keep going back. The place is too fun not to.

I absolutely love coming here! A beautiful place to meet with a friend or two. The pizza is pretty good and decently priced. Not a huge drink selection but enough of one to try something new. Staff are friendly and are always on top of service when I’m there. Haven’t found anything to fault really.

Good atmosphere, great cocktails. Sometimes hard to find a seat but that's because it's always busy which is a good problem to have. Love the Zombie cocktail.

Generally my number 1 place to go, but I won't be in an hurry to return. Was with a big group of people and unfortunately everyone had the same experience with the lack of alcohol in their drinks, particularly during happy hour. $10 for happy hour cocktails, but they were rubbish (long island ice teas and mojitos). Couldn't taste a drop of alcohol (weird considering a long island ice tea has 4 different types of alcohol???). Asked the bar to re-make them (we thought it might have been a mistake) but no, they were more than happy to tell us that they purposely stinge out on alcohol with happy hour cocktails. Well what is the purpose of happy hour then? Pretty sure that's false advertising which is illegal? And the fact that they openly admitted blew me out. If people are coming to your premises for the happy hour period it's because they are cheaper than when it isn't happy hour! Pathetic. OTHER than that, food was ok, service was ok, and the vibe/atmosphere was good. Again, won't be in a hurry to return. The Little Prince used to be one of the best bars in Wollongong for a reason. If management could just stop changing every 3 days that would be great.

Dude with a grey shirt that says carv and brown paints and brown hair and a rag in his pocket is rude and ignored me when I tried to order. He had Terrible manners when I finally got his attention he rolled his eyes and gestured me rudely.

Comfy and friendly bar. Staff are very welcoming and are passionate about what they do. Large selection of beverages and a neat little food menu. What's not to love?

Classy relaxed great atmosphere. However let down in the Long Island Ice Tea department tonight and the Pimms Pitches. It seemed the alcohol content was on the stingy side. Not only was this my opinion but also my guests. Will be a while till we concider going back for evening nibbles and drinks unfortunately.

Brilliant place to have a house special beer with a few friends or a whole group of people. The bartenders are down to earth which add to the relaxed nature of the place. The dimmed lights and warm hues are there to make you and your friends (or significant other) feel comfortable after a hard day's work. It works.

Best burgers in Springfield, hands down! Gooey cheese between two patties? YES PLEASE!!! Its just as good bunless too for those of you carb conscious peeps.We've eaten a few other great tasting items off the menu, but honestly, the burgers are where its at. And, you know, when you are in the mood for a great burger, something has got to hit the spot.

Awesome old style bar with great cocktails, outdoor seating and tapas drinks. The primary recommended drink is the cocktails but there's is an excellent beer, wine, and whiskey selection.

An awesome place to chill out on a quiet sunny afternoon.
Great service, friendly staff and delicious tapas style meals accompanied by a nice shandy with their on tap pale ale.
The decor is perfect and it has a very cool '50s / '60s feel to it.
I will definitely come back again for a meal and the chance to be able to sit around with friends and enjoy a conversation in a nice cosy atmosphere.
Thank you!
