The Braybrook Hotel is situated on Ballarat Rd in Braybrook and has recently undergone an extensive renovation, engaging all sections of the hotel creating a fresh and modern look, while also retaining a link to its rich history from the mid 1800’s. Only 20 minutes from the Melbourne CBD the Braybrook Hotel has plenty of off street parking and offers a range of award winning facilities. The first Braybrook Hotel is thought to have been erected around 1854, possibly in response to the demand from travellers to the gold fields. However, the earliest rate record found for this building was in 1863-4 when Charles Niven Young was the licensee and John Lang was the owner. These days the hotel is home to our ‘world famous’ all you can eat buffet with brand new Kids Play Area, multiple function rooms for all of your private and corporate needs, a state of the art TAB, modern gaming facilities, Sports Bar and extensive drive-thru Bottleshop that is open 7 days per week until late.

Apart from the food and service being exceptional, the Goodland Jungle Juice DIPA was literally next level for this style. I had lamb shoulder and my 2 friends had steak. The sides, of note the roasted Broccoli were delish. The 12 year old Bunnahabhain Scottish single malt distilled on the rugged cost of Islay made for the perfect finish.

Dining at the Brandon is always a pleasant experience. Knowledgeable staff helped us make good wine choices. Some of our group chose meals from the starter menu and were happy to have the portion sizes explained. We could converse comfortably because background noise was controlled by the venue. All elements came together to make our Christmas get together really enjoyable.

Staff were very helpful for the large group we had booked for and easily accommodated a few extra people who came on the day. No issues at all with the pre-ordered meals. Was a simple process to book for a large group. All meals were great and the lunch time special was great value.

We attended prior to a concert at Marvel Stadium. We booked ahead( a straight forward process using the website) and arrived slightly early. The place was busy but extremely organised and well staffed. Our orders were delivered promptly and the food was exactly as described. We therefore had a stress free and pleasant dinner leaving in plenty of time for our concert. It is not the place for an intimate dinner and chat, but ideal if you want good food presented on time and with efficient and friendly service.
