Christine of HexoticaJanuary 13, 2016Great positioning right on the South bank walkway. Beautifully decorated with a great atmosphere. Happy hour cocktails are only $10!
Great vibe at this place. The food is good, the service is excellent, the crowd is varied and interesting. I really like it here.
Melanie StevenAugust 14, 2011Even tho I took fotos of the linguine and the risotto-both were under seasoned and needed loads of salt added for flavouring....the Singapore noodles, however were had by a friend and she loved them.
Michael HarrisFebruary 15, 2010Great lunch spot at South Bank. Despite daunting size of menus, specials and wine list (needs legion of slaves to carry), menu is brilliant and will find some you'll go straight for. Read more
Larissa LumsdenJuly 5, 2012I don't mind waiting over an hour in a group for food if it's good! but @ World it's not. Pasta cold&hard, ribs cold, battered fish cold. However the hot chips were great, 4 of us shared and paid $160
Alexandre FerreiraMarch 27, 2012The 400G Porks Ribs may sound interesting but they are nothing special. Go for something else! The James Square is five dollars between 5 and 7!
ChrissoAugust 1, 2011Really nice to sit outside and have a beer or two! Food was not great and took a while from order to table!
Peter WJune 19, 2011French crumpets for breakfast are delicious. Couldn't fault the service, staff very attentive.
Emma DilemmaDecember 31, 2010Awesome staff, great food, brilliant atmosphere, lovely location. What more could you ask for? Read more
Haylee LumsdenFebruary 20, 2011The live music every Sunday is a perfect way to end the weekend while enjoying a bevo or two!
Jun HengJanuary 19, 2015Love the vibe and the view by the riverbank. The food is just average. No wow factor though.
Try the World steak sandwich. Best I have ever had. Seriously amazing.
Lee HutchinsonMay 16, 2010Great place for a nice meal at a reasonable price! Try the five spices chicken. It was delicious!!
April TNovember 17, 2011Came on a Thurs. They were having pay the time for a pint of James Squires Golden Ale b/w 5-7pm eg. 5.30pm, pay $5.30
Everything works for us! Baileys, Amaretto & Absolut.
Chris AdamsJanuary 6, 2015Waited over half an hour for a simple breakfast and the staff were not interested at all. Once again publican group proves they care more about your money than your experience!
Charmaine EarnshawJune 30, 201230 min to get a BOOKED table, music is EXTREMELY loud, food is taking more than 45 min to leave the kitchen. Staff are hard to get a hold of. When we finally get the food we will review how it tastes.
Ok venue but the customers are all rude assholes. Members night always lets in the trash that aren't regulars that consistently will go out of the way to ruin your night.
Gregory RyanJanuary 19, 2014Steaks was very ordinary and waiters need to learn about personal hygiene

Kimberly LamJune 8, 2013Kitchen opens in 10mins but noooo waitresses are not capable of taking orders until then. Instead they spend that 10mins telling people so.
Amie MostynJuly 7, 2010Nice venue, way too many staff doing nothing, ordered the bangers and mash, could do it better at home!
David McDonoughOctober 21, 2011Don't come in a group. They make you per order in the morning and then wait for an hour for food.
Peter LikidisJune 30, 2012Meal took over an hour and it was cold. Go next door or even maccas. Just go anywhere else.
TrooperJune 24, 2012Waited almost an hour for our food. Seriously what a crap place. Music is good though.
