West End Tavern Reviews
Worst customer service tonigh from Belinda. She was never ready to serve customers when we needed change. I left after she wanted me to go and get my coin cup. Isn't that her job to have the change ready? Abolutlely pathetic. I won't be going back.

When is a tavern not a tavern? When its nothing more than a single room devoted wholly to gaming machines. Soulless. Two stars for keeping the lights on past 2am.

Went there on a Friday night just after 1am and the staff were far from welcoming. They were ridiculously rude to my friends and i when ordering drinks. I asked if they had pink Gordons which is a pretty common spirt to have at a licensed venue (espically in the heart of the city, on the busiest street for nightlife in Adelaide). They could have just said no sorry but instead insisted to assert that the venue was not a bar, just a gaming room. The staff made it quite obvious that they didnt want to be there as they made it out that pouring a drink was to much of an effort.
When we went up to the bar to order another drink at aprx 1.50am the staff ignored us and was chatting amongst themselves untill one of them finally approached us to the say they couldn't serve drinks past 2am. When we tried to say we had been waiting for the past 10 mins and were the only customers there they then tried saying their till system automatically cuts of at 2 so theres nothing they could do about it. Which being in the hospitality industry I know that's not ture. I would not recommend going to the west end tavern on weekend night.

Went here the other night for the first time.
Aboriginals drunk and fighting and sleeping and almost every other customer looked like a drug user.
Other than all that the place looked nice

Very racist staff on 4 November 2021 at 4am.
They talked down to me the moment I walked in the door, because I am black.
I was treated like a lesser type of person.
Then a white lady walked in and there wasn't anything said to her.
Very disappointing that colour is a factor in the way they run their business

This is a great little Tavern well it's called a Tavern but it's basically a pokies room with a bar and toilets I'm not sure about wheelchair access but that is wheelchair parking and the staff are quite friendly even on the dreaded Friday and Saturday nights everything is quite nice in this establishment

Staff was rude aa hell. Place was empty wouldn't accept an expired learnera photo permit with other id that wasn't expired. When asked what would be acceptable I was told I was hopeless as I was disqualified and therefore licence couldn't be renewed... I tried to explain I having treatment for leukaemia at the rah across the road and just wanted to smash $50 through a machine before going back to hospital to finish the chemotherapy treatment I been doing for past 2 weeks and just needed a break from what id would be acceptable she just asked I was upset with her for my id being expired.

Reece, John & Suan make this place a memorable experience. 10/10 would reccomend to anybody. Culinary masters in the trade, by far the best bar in Adelaide. The food is amazing, the atmosphere is unoforgettable. We will be back again and again!!

Not the Hilton so don't expect that, but staff always friendly, good atmosphere, great place to go for a quiet drink, or bit of a slap. Usually other customers like to have a chat if you're interested, great location.

My first step through the door I was welcomed by the staff and offered a free soft drink.
To be honest I had a bad day at work and just the smile on my arrival turned my day around.
Thankyou Guys and Girls will look forward to the next time I step in the door.... 👍🏻👍🏻

Most staff there are fine except one named Belinda, if she can’t be friendly and welcoming to customers, she shouldn’t work in hospitality.
No effort. It’s like she’s doing a huge favour to do anything for anyone, acts like she can’t be bothered to even make coffee to customers.
She makes new customers feel unwelcome. A big liability to that place.

Great place to lose a ton of money with a large variety of machines it's hard to know which one to play. Haven't tried the food but the staff are generally friendly.

Absolutely discusting service from the so called manager BELINDA.. sits there and judges customers, she is rude and condescending.. Belinda makes it clear she dislikes her job.. Clearly she does not have the personality for the job, you lose a lot of business because of her..
