    The service was very slow, it took 20 minutes to get a drink and 50 minutes for the food to come. The vegetable curry, whilst quite tasty, was very dry and the rice was crispy. We have been before, but yesterday was not good.

    The Victoria Hotel in Woodend provides a warm, welcoming atmosphere for friends and family members to meet and enjoy a fantastic meal. Staff are friendly, efficient and the food is amazing. We are starting to eat these more regularly and couldn't be happier. There is entertainment in the bar of a Saturday night which creates a fun and entertaining environment.

    Staff were friendly and efficient. Food was excellent especially the Gluten free parmigiana. We were wrapped to find a hotel that actually caters for coeliacs.
