"Good selection of food and reasonably priced. The music playlists are good (maybe just a tiny bit loud though as we had to speak with raised voices over our meal). The kids playground is definitely a hit! The staff were very friendly and helpful. Stephanie in particular was just lovely and went out of her way to keep our kids smiling. Only 4 stars because the music was just a tad loud. Other than that a great place to eat out, especially if you have kids."

"Love the Precinct area of the Shellharbour Club. It has it all! A great kids play area that they won’t want to leave, a bar (Velvet) that makes everything imaginable, meal venues like Big Time BBQ, Diggity Dogs, Dynasty and more. Ample seating and a huge screen TV. Ordering is done at one counter and collected via a table buzzer system. Loved the whole experience and so did the kids Great area for a whole family meal outing."

"MONTY AT BFS! I don't think I have ever asked for the cooks/chefs name because of how delicious the food was and how friendly the service was! Absolutely amazing dirty bird burger and Monty was kind enough to let me taste a sauce before buying it- plus he happily answered my random questions about every different sauce I'll definitely be back thanks to this man!"
