    The pancakes we some of the best but we did get two kids brekkie burger assuming there would be egg and bacon on them as that generally is what you’d get, and unfortunately there was no description on the menu. When they came out it was a regular burger with a chicken Pattie. Most people would not expect this especially with kids who can be quite picky. My advice would be to change the burger to egg and bacon and not try to be fancy with a kids menu item. Unfortunately both my kids weren’t a fan and wasted most of the burger. Beautiful ambience though and very well done, I would just reconsider some of the menu items or at least put a description on the menu so people don’t assume and have some idea what to expect before receiving their order.

    Venue interesting and an excellent conversion. Food was unexpectedly ordinary, potato scallops diabolical.

    Awesome spot. Food is on point. Ushers have great energy and made the highlight. Two minor points - Parking over 45mins is $20 - toilets at the Eveleigh Yards are filthy Experience st the grounds is amazing but the supporting infrastructure lets it down!

    Brunch for two; coffees came separately, and food took a while to arrive. Service rushed but friendly.

    I absolutely loved the atmosphere at The Grounds. The decor is stunning, and the ambience makes me feel relaxed and comfortable. They’ve put a lot of thought into creating a welcoming environment. The service stood out for me. It was the perfect mix of professionalism and friendliness, which made the whole experience even better. Everything about The Grounds—from the decor to the overall vibe—felt thoughtful and inviting. I’d recommend it to anyone looking for a place to unwind and enjoy excellent service.
