Taren Point Bowling Club

Went for mothers day lunch. Was wonderfully set out. However our reservation requests had been ignored and the manager said there was nothing they would do. We'd asked for a table near the playground so younger mums could see their kids playing. But we got table furtherest from the playground. Also told during booking that if we got there early we could pick the table. Very wrong information.Meal was reasonable in flavour.But the staff were very keen to get everyone out. Not the most relaxing day.

I'd love to give a better rating as the staff were friendly, but the food was far below average unfortunately. My wife ordered a $37 surf n turf and the steak looked like it had been boiled - no char at all and was tough. The grilled fish was completely overcooked and dry. We ordered a jug of coke and the coke had brown floaties all through it. Sorry.

Good food choices, very busy and noisey on Sunday around meat raffle time. Easy access suitable for disabled consumers and reasonable parking area.

The Reef and Beef. Not what was expected two prawns to make it reef. Coming from QLD where you get min 4 to 8 prawns and full creamy garlic sauce not a small tub of something thats not garlic on the side which you see.The rice based meals are really nice and taste but just choose wisely what you eat.Could comment more on the kitchen staff but won't.

Great lunch specials and reasonably priced. I has the pepper chilli beef which hit the spot.

Amid the rising cost of living and economic uncertainty, the Shire locals are always betting on and winning with the lunch bargains at Taren Point Bowling Club! By 12 o'clock, the car park is at capacity and the neighbouring streets are full with eager customers that pack out the spacious dining room. Every weekday for $10-12 and even less for members, you can treat yourself to the generous amounts of freshly cooked food. Choosing from a vast menu selection, we ordered Mongolian lamb, honey chicken and pork spare ribs in Peking sauce. Note in the future that the wait times will be long and even just the queue to order can be a test of patience. But the hard-working noises and aromas from the kitchen and the friendly, smiling service are enough to motivate your perseverance, our Asian dishes came to us piping hot from the wok and popped into our happy mouths. I can still feel the heat of the honey chicken throbbing in my mouth with very little redundant batter and a huge emphasisis on the succulent meat. Each piece is slathered in an indulgent honey sauce, making the cellophane noodles beneath it a delectable dessert. But it wasn't long till I had to call time-out because the sugar was too overwhelming. The rich sauces of the accompanying dishes didn't deter my hunger though, the tangy tomato base of the Peking sauce penetrating the thick, tender cuts of pork and stir-fry vegetables. The beefiness of the Mongolian lamb perfectly encapsulated both the striking pepper and the residual steam, balanced out with the rice to create an umami harmony. We were all stuffed and warm in the belly and we have the fantastic food to thank for that. A magnificent first lunch but definitely not the last at the Point.

Staff were friendly Chinese food was nice and,the club atmosphere was welcoming.Would recommend to family and friends

We had a lovely family dinner where we spent over $130 on a nice Chinese meal and when we wanted to take home the left over fried rice for the kids that didn’t make dinner we were told we needed to pay $0.50 for it.Seriously guys, for the quality of food and your prices, charging your patrons to take leftovers home is ridiculous!!!Even the tables on either side of us were complaining about this ‘NEW’ policy!

Seltzer on tap, great choice of lunch specials at very reasonable price. My Thai chicken salad delish. Chicken moist, salad greens fresh and dressing well balanced.
