The Mallow

The Mallow is comfortable, and uses all its different rooms really well. We went for the Harry Potter Trivia night (kudos to all those involved in running this!) and had our meal in the lounge, which had wonderful Chesterfield sofas and armchairs and an open fire - plus games and books if desired. We enjoyed our food too. Definitely plan to go back!

This craft beer pub was and amazing stop on the way to Melbourne. Definitely coming back here again and staying longer. Their food was amazing definitely recommend their big mac pac burger with macaroni cheese in it.

Hadn't been here before but it had come up in Google searches as a good place to go so decided to check it out. Glad we did! A unique bar with a unique menu. It was a fun place with good service and we enjoyed the food. They were even setting up a cinema out the back in the beer garden when we were leaving. Might have to book a movie night next time.

Visited on Friday for dinner.
Staff were accommodating and very lovely, impressive range of Beers on Tap.
The standout was the food, ordered the Corn Ribs which were filled with flavour.

Then got the BBQ for one plate, which was the some of the best Smoked Meat I've had, and I've eaten a lot of BBQ around the country and over in the states.

My partner had the Lamb Pizza, cooked beautifully and had amazing flavour.

Highly recommend The Mallow, great to see a pub stepping up and standing out.

We didn’t stay here just went to the public bar for dinner, live music and some games pool.
The staff were exceptional, the food was really good, the live band was great and the pool table was actually the best pub pool table we’ve ever played on (and we’ve played on a lot!) . Definitely be stopping in again next time we are in Ballarat.

We had an incredible night out at The Mallow for my daughters 17th. The staff were absolutely fantastic. Such a great fun, friendly vibe. We got to enjoy some bingo, an amazing bbq dinner and some great laughs. Don’t give The Mallow a miss! Honestly. Thanks so much to the whole gang!

Visiting from Melbourne.
There is a nice warm atmosphere, the staff were amazing and very polite.
We ordered some Beers from the bar, and the tap selection here would put many bars in Melbourne to shame.

Next was the food, this was the highlight of the night. Nothing short of spectacular!
We shared the Woodfire Foccacia which was great to start with.
Followed by some Smoked Brisket, Lamb Ribs and the Mushroom Gnocchi.
10/10, some of the best food I have eaten.

Lovely service with fantastic food. Finally a place with amazing kids food. The staff were lovely.

Great choice of craft beer, nice food, the crew is awesome and trivia is a great night out.

Delicious food. Warm and friendly atmosphere in the dining room by the fire and lovely staff. Incredible selection of Independent Craft Beer on Tap! Well worth visiting if you are ever in Ballarat for work, life or leisure.

We got in early before the rush and had dinner. As a family we had the kid's gnocchi, gnocchi and mushrooms, Beef Ragu and everyone was impressed. Normally with gnocchi I feel like it wasn't enough this was perfect and super fresh. Great selection of beers on tap. I have to say there was a lady on front of house that was amazing and totally made the night with the rest of the staff. Great place to go but do book before hand otherwise get there at 5pm

Quite easily the best pub in town... friendly staff, great range of ales, events, and good food options.

Had a lovely meal at The Mallow the other day. I'm vegan and loved that they had a number of dishes I could enjoy and that their sauces are all vegan. The service was fantastic and their wine and beer selection is excellent!

My wife and I are great fans of The Mallow. It's one of the friendliest venues we've been to anywhere, with delicious and creative meals served promptly even when the place is busy and a great selection of beers both on tap or sold by can from the fridge.

Wow! This place is incredible. Excellent customer service, friendly staff, and great atmosphere. The menu has something for everyone. For those who love low 'n' slow bbq, visiting The Mallow is a must. We have now tried quite a few things from pitmaster and standard menu and everytime it has been unbelievably amazing. They also have a great range of beer which we are slowly working our way through. It's a place that we are excited to recommend to everyone and one that we will continue coming back to!

We had a great lunch on Sunday. Fabulous options for all, including our vegans. Heaps of choices of food, drinks, snacks etc.

The Mallow's new owners have really upped the Mallow's game. Fantastic beers on tap and the new menu is awesome. The atmosphere is convivial and the staff are always welcoming. It's our new favourite venue for a night out.

Great neighbourhood pub, good food, friendly staff, and one of the best craft beer tap venues in Ballarat.

13 of us were visiting Ballarat. We booked a table for lunch. The reviews were good & we were not disappointed! The menu is great, they happily cater for folks that have food intolerances! 4 of us ate the Mallow burger! Lol! I had the GF version. Yum! The staff made us feel very welcome. We left feeling fed, watered & happy. Thank you guys!

Delicious quality food! We tried the confit duck paper rolls, smoked porter house steak, the smoked beef cheek and the peanut butter cheese cake as a special. Everything was amazing, will definitely be back. The kitchen team are killing it.
