Coopers Alehouse Gepps Cross

A great place for a casual meal. The recently re-done hotel has two main dining areas, the main indoor one and a shaded outdoor section. With a nice open feeling the main dining area brings in a lot of light through the large windows out-looking the outdoor area. A half-open kitchen allows patrons to watch their food being handled between the cooks and wait staff. Service was satisfactory with the exception of the lady that served at the counter. Food arrived as requested (sauce on the side) and in relatively quick time. Very pleased, however the server at the counter had no interests in advising the specials or responding to queries about the menu. Quite the glum body language/face. Cleanliness could not be faulted during our dining period. Food was quite nice. Schnitzel with gravy on the side was ordered and upon first inspection, looked palatable. Schnitzel was thick and juicy, could have been a touch crunchier. 8/10 overall taste for the schnitzel. Chips were thick cut and seasoned evenly. Salad was very average with the dressing not really being tasty. A very plain mayo consistency sauce over julienned carrots, sliced cabbage and lettuce bits really didn't complete the experience. Despite this, the overall dish would be a 7/10 as salad is not the main focus. Dessert was a lot better. The Spring Parfait came in quite a large serving and included whole berries underneath cream and mango puree with the macerated strawberries which created a bit of a jam which created an even balance of flavour. Not overly sweet but would still go down well with a glass of water. Finding the crumble mix further down in the dessert was a welcomed surprise, the cookie consistency had me searching the glass for more with my spoon.

Great food but always busy and hard to get a table so book ahead if you can

Most beautiful food, but very loud inside. Great staff, good service

Good food and service. Friendly staff.

Great friendly staff

All oven baked brealfast buffet.. so pretty average IMO

Good food. But just wish that the pubs of this world would realise that they are just a pub. Not a 5 star restaurant. The bloody prices they charge are ridiculous. $25 for a chicken parmigiana $33 for a steak. Went to a 5 star restaurant in Adelaide, Carpet Bagger steak $30. Stop ripping people off. Here's an idea, go high turnover re food, lower profits.

Typical pub food. We had beef schnitzel which was mostly breadcrumbs and was over cooked. Ĺots of big groups so was very noisy. Staff were friendly and helpful.

Our first visit was a cold Friday night. The place wad absolutely packed. We were greeted just as we walked in by none of than the security guard who was extremely nice & very helpful as we didn't have a booking, No problem we were seated very quickly. Our order didnt take long to arrive. The wine list is very extensive & proudly dupports SA. All the staff were very friendly and helpful. Have already booked another visit.
