We have been to Spensley's close to 10 times now over the past year! It is our favourite place to come for a relaxing and tasty meal. We bring all our visitors here (we are originally from the UK) to showcase one of the best restaurants we have found during our time in Melbourne. The food is spectacular for the value (feed me menu is always worth it!). We will be becoming back!

The food, service and ambience of Spensley's was perfect for an evening catch up with long-time friends. We opted for a couple of small plates, some sides and a couple of mains to share. Great value for money.

Superb food, exemplary service and most importantly a couple of non trendy baby boomers are treated like family. Dr Susan Nikakis

Once again the food, service and ambience was fantastic. We had the set menu, and were able to cater for all food likes. I had the pork main and others had the fish. The tiramisu was to die for. Great night.
