Ryan helped me book in my partner's 30th Birthday Dinner and made sure I was happy with everything. Ryan went well above and beyond to make sure his night was one to remember. He also made sure to check on the little ones with us, which was so sweet! Ryan is an absolute asset to your business. The food came out so quick and it was delicious! The drinks are a little overpriced, but a great night was had by all. We will definitely be back!

Sauce pots were very small. Price was pretty expensive. But the food was delicious, there were plenty of options for my celiac Mum and a lovely clean highchair for my son. Service was great, atmosphere was great. Will return for a treat now and then as it’s too expensive for regular dining but a great experience makes us want to come back again.

We decided to change our weekly family get together from the Chittaway pub. 10 of us in total. We ordered our meals on 5 seperate orders, the first being a Snitty Parma without ham. All meals arrived except the parma, was asked by staff on at least 4 occasions if we were waiting for anything else......didn't receive the parma till after others had finished their meals. So its back to the Chittaway Pub for our weekly family gatherings.

The only thing that disappointed me was that I had booked a table inside but on the day we had a table outside with stools. They did find us a table inside but it wasn’t inside the actual restaurant section.

Take care that what is advertised is what you receive. I believe that the promotion offered gave an false expectation of value. Food and service were, however, good!

Terrible attitude from the Manager of the Restaurant when one of our meals was incorrect. Our food came back worse than we had left it. No apology or sign of any care that I would expect from a man of his position within the restaurant, especially as it was a birthday dinner with family. Food was disappointing and extremely overpriced for what we received. This is now my second bad experience at Hadley’s and I will not make the mistake of coming back for a third.

We booked a table for 10 and were seated outside the actual restaurant which to me was inappropriate for the occasion. I could have gone to any outside Cafe if I wanted to be seated in a traffic area.

This is the second time we visited Hadley’s as the first was very nice. Unfortunately we didn’t have the same experience this time. The Caesar salad was very basic. The sauce was not made by a chef but clearly something out of a bottle- and too much of it. And the rest of it felt like something from a petrol station snack fridge. The reef and ribs Father’s Day special was nice for my dad and husband. They thoroughly enjoyed it. I will be back as the staff are really lovely here and the restaurant it nice. However, I won’t be ordering the salad ever again and hope to hear they change it to at least have a decent sauce.

The food was pretty average. Pizza was undercooked, salt pepper squid wasn't crisp enough, prawns did not feel fresh. Garlic prawns should be served sizzling hot, but they were lukewarm. In the days before Hadley's, (Indigo) food quality was inconsistent and same thing seems to be happening with new management. Menus and food quality kept changing. The last time we were at Hadley's we had a great experience, but last night we were not impressed at all. Did the chef change? If yes, there must be an issue with keeping a good chef on board. Otherwise, all service staff were kind and trying their best on a busy night. It is a great place to go on special nights, but the food quality can be improved. Thanks
