Breakfast & classic bistro fare served in a large, modern complex with a sports bar & gaming lounge.
The City Labor Club in Canberra
Description
Depressing pokies venue. Only thing that made this place good for a late night drink was the staff but most of the good ones seem to have moved on. Location and mezzanine level have so much potential- remove the pokies from upstairs and install a proper sports bar/tab and you might have a decent venue and patrons wanting to visit for something other than pokies or toilets.
MoreFeel sorry for the understaffed kitchen. I had to wait over an hour for a bacon and egg roll. I wanted to leave but didnt want to bother the staff in asking for a refund. Eventually I just couldnt wait anymore and had to go looking for someone to refund me and cancel my order so I could leave.
Moremedium size club in heart of canberra pokies food and drink all good seating ok sports bar sort of
MoreNot a bad place at all for a club lunch meal
Great value. Trivia night+Dendy movie ticket meal Deal. Ok, its just a bistro, but its a good bistro.
MoreLighting the colour of urine, cheap food thats subsidised by the pensioners pouring their money into the pokies machines. Miserable place to be.
MoreThe steaks use to be good but today they were very bad ☹️ (too grisly and hard). My wife and I did not could eat it. They really need to improve the food quality.
MoreConvenient for dinner or drinks before a show at yhe theatre
Bar staff were both really good, food was ok for the price. Nice atmosphere
It was quite good. Food is quite OK, atmosphere a bit dingy but acceptable.
Always feel welcome by the warm greetings from foh staff. The size makes it quaint and the service is consistent. Good place to stop for a breather and a treat.
MoreFriendly staff. Well priced dinner. A smaller much quieter club. A very nice alcoholic ginger beer, very refreshing is sold here.
MoreGreat little club to pop in for a quick steak and a cold beer. Very well priced and great staff.

Great friendly staff . Great meals and great pricing. Very clean
Very nice staff and cold beer but not the greatest atmosphere quite small and full of poker machines.
MoreGreat place for a cheap feed. Would choose this again over eating in the hotel I stayed at.
MoreTo small in every way. Food prices too high. Food ok only. Service and staff excellent.
MoreGreat place in the city to play pokies and have a normal beer. Carlton Draught on tap
MoreReliable place in the heart of the city for a bacon and egg roll plus coffee breakfast and good lunch.Been going for years and has never failed me.
MoreCheap booze and food, nice staff. Full of pokies though.
Surprisingly excellent meals. Very friendly staff.
Small pokies club with minimal seating. Bookings for meals otherwise bit of a crush. Meals are front bar standard, nothing special. Utilitarian is a good description.Staff mostly nice and friendly.
MoreLocated in the heart of Canberra.Polite staff, great food, reasonable prices, "Pleasent Experience"Serves breakfast lunch and dinner.You can download their menu and opening times online.
MoreBarely capable bar staff, management lost in the wind. The best I can say for this venue is that the kitchen & kitchen staff therein always come up with the goods. Great food, lousy bar service. nuff said.
MoreFive star everything.Great service, great food - and very generous servings, well priced, and very clean and welcoming.Highly recommended.
MoreNice atmosphere, good staff, good food. Convenient in the city! Recommended for informal catch ups esp.
MoreThe bar is great service very friendly and attentive! food section on the other hand is horrible. I waited 5 minutes to get coffee because they were busy chatting in the back. This isnt the first time Im experienced this. The chef the servers all need training on customer service and manners on how to talk to people.
MoreThe chicken parmigiana was delicious. Services was very friendly. They dont have apple cider on tap which was disappointing. But I enjoyed my meal very much with a beer.
MoreBest hamburger Ive had. Nice atmosphere and friendly staff! Service was friendly and very obliging and meal arrived quite quickly Would recommend.
MoreIt was okay food was a bit dry and we found it hard to find somewhere to sit. But the service from staff was amazing and very helpful.
MoreFood was fantastic Brooze was a good price mind you that was only with this member discount but overall the club is not too bad it is a bit small for my liking but it is the city its to be expected.
MoreUsed to be a 5 star rating.This 1 star is for the manager named "Jim".Horrible man.Rest of the staff are wonderful.
MoreThe Surf and and Turf Lunch was amazing cooked to perfection Served with chips and a delicious fresh garden salad Service was friendly and very obliging and meal arrived quite quickly Would recommend it as must do while in Canberra Was easy to find and is very popular with the locals Young and Old
MoreWebsite made it look 50x better than it was. Food was overpriced, even the $12special fish, chips & salad. 1pce of Boxed battered fish cooked to barely any fish left inside the batter, some dry shredded beetroot, carrot & something else (from a packet no doubtwith a bit of mixed lettuce & some chips- hard to go wrong but undercooked and not very warm at all.
MoreFood is not too bad. Staff are very nice. Pretty quiet on Sundays if you wanted a nice, quiet place to eat or drink.
MoreThe savings on meals and drinks make the membership worthwhile. Offers discounts to seniors. In the heart of the city. A relaxing place for a beer coffee or snack.
MoreThe movie deal is $17.50 offered 7 days a week either lunch or dinner.You get to choose between a steak, chicken schnitzel or battered fish. All three come with chips and greens.

MoreCheap food and beer. Relaxing.
Loved this place we stumbled upon on our stay at canberra.staff very friendly prices were fantastic and the food is the best part of all yum yum !!highly recommend anyone visit this wonderful relaxing club
MoreThe Chicken Parmy when its on special can be good, but I wouldnt deviate from that. The dried out chicken what ever they call it they have just served me is best suited for my dog...never again!!!!
MoreGreat place for excellent quality, cheap, large meals. Highly recommend.
ordered the salmon and prawns with garlic sauce. salmon was raw! now im a chef and i serve it medium rare myself but this was pretty well raw. so called garlic sauce was a bechamel base not cream and the salad consisted of limp mixed cress 2 slices of cucumber and a chunk of tomato. then preceeded to tell us they cant swap for another meal that was half the price and could only partially refund because i ate a few mouthfuls. would not return would not recommend.
MoreA waiter whose name I late found out to be Morgan Bell gave me the wrong order and when I told him of this fact he simply shrugged his shoulders saying, an I quote "thats not really my problem mate". This disgusting display of service has put me of this establishment and I advice you do the same!
MoreMy partner and I rented out the mezzanine level for our engagement party. The whole process was flawless - the staff were lovely to deal with and the facilities were great (private bar, toilets, jukebox). Well priced, finger food was great. Highly recommended!
