James Squire Brewhouse & Restaurant

I don't understand how people think its over priced? You are inner city and right on the water, most venues in the city CBD are the same or more expensive. Unlike some, when my friends and I dine out we go for an experience and I feel the James Hotel provided that for us, as well as fantastic food and a great selection of drinks.My only negative feedback would be the menu is a bit outdated as there a few items now not available, in the busiest time of year when it counts the most they seem to be doing some type of table restoration which I don't understand them doing it now, surely there was plenty of time, last thing was the tall guy and the younger guy that were working did a fantastic job as it seemed to me they could have had two more staff members on. All in all a great experience and would recommend it to anyone...

Festivus – Good pub food in great spot. Had the parma it rockedSuch a great view tooSimple but effective

Good parms. Just a good honest pub, slightly expensive due to location, but have eaten here several times and never been disappointed. <br/ <br/ Parma's are yum [there are 6 types] and steak sandwich the best I've ever had. <br/ <br/ Service little slow when very busy, but to be expected on a Friday/Saturday night.

Roast of the day. Wow finally a place that does a roast on a Sunday. I called into James Squire on Sunday 9th March and ordered roast pork. I was given a very generous serving of roast pork with crispy vegetables. Beautifully cooked, the crackle was delicious as were the kipfler potatoes. I will be back soon. Great service and value,Cheers Andrea

Come here for the beer! I only like this place because of the Squire beer. The food is okay and for the price you want more than okay. It is a tired pub with the carpets worn through, dust on the chair legs and rough scratched tables. The ambience isn't really there not terrible but it could be great with a few modifications. Overall, the pub is understaffed, needs some money spent on it and some live bands or other entertainment (Channel 9 is not pub entertainment). But I can forgive all of that because they serve Australia's best commercial beer.
