Links Hotel

** Complete Operational Failure and Zero Accountability ** We visited on Tuesday 13/01 and placed our order at approximately 8:24pm. We were advised steaks were unavailable as the kitchen was closing — fine. We ordered chicken schnitzel, Korean fried burger, and beef lasagne. Our order was taken by Lia. After waiting nearly 50 minutes with zero updates, we approached the bar. The first staff member (black top) had no idea about our order. Lia then checked the kitchen and returned only with refund receipts, stating the kitchen never received the order and the chefs had already left. So an order was taken, customers waited almost an hour, and no one noticed until we chased it. There was no genuine apology, no accountability, and no professionalism. Lia brushed it off as “all cool” and even asked “What’s that?” when compensation was requested for leaving three customers hungry at 9:30pm. Her excuse was that she was on break — completely unacceptable. We left hungry with no food options available that late. Management should review CCTV footage between 8:24pm–9:30pm at Table 01. It will clearly show the lack of ownership, communication breakdown, and poor service standards. This wasn’t a minor mistake — it was a serious operational and leadership failure. A refund alone does not excuse this level of incompetence. If this is how late service is handled, customers deserve to know before wasting their evening here.

Just had a lovely Melbourne Cup lunch here - set menu. The food was delicious and well presented. We were served by Lia who looked after us very well. She was very friendly and kept us informed of proceedings. Trudi did a great job serving and organising the sweeps. The manager (whose name escapes me) kept everything flowing effortlessly. Would recommend the Links for future events if they are as well organised as today was!

Great atmosphere, one of my local pubs. Amazing food, Ryan, Marija, Sue and rest of staff are awesome. If you want to have a laugh, this is the place to be. Well done, keep up the good work everyone

I came in for a few hours and the atmosphere of the place is not welcoming. a young girl and manager was on shift, was treated horribly by the manager. no respect towards anyone, his attitude was appalling. the young girl was doing everything, no help from the manager. Had people lining up for payout as the machines were out of service. the young girl had great attitude, amazing service. poor girl, the manager needs to learn some manners.

After a three month stay I got to show my gratitude to Marija, Lia and the team for their great work ethic and friendly attitude. The meals are a typical pub menu of a high quality.

The Links is now a disgrace. We have been within walking distance to the pub since 2014. It has been convenient and great for kids however the management now are more interested in gaming and the TAB than what they are for restaurant service. We have twice in the last three weeks and not only have they had the inability to take an order correctly but they have then blamed the fact that they are too busy in the gaming room to clear sorry plates left on the table for over an hour and a half after the meal had been completed. Giving the RP an chance to redeem themselves I brought it up with them and explained that not only did their staff stuff a meal order but one of the 4 meals was 10 mins later than the rest. The RP did not try to make a means or apologise but instead said they were under staffed and were busy despite the restaurant being at least only half to three quarters full. When I later brought up the situation with the RP the RP made it clear that they were busy with the gaming area and this needed to be attended to immediately as opposed to the restaurant which could wait. There was no apology no nothing. Good hospitality is not hard. It is relatively simple. If you want a good meal and a good venue maybe head to the Seaton or the Lockleys. The excuse from a multinational organisation that they are short of staff is pathetic we are well post COVID now. Hard no from me.

I have been to the links a few times now and each time I go I am always met with smiles and am always welcomed. It has a great family atmosphere and i enjoy eating there and their food. I find the food very lovely and delicious. Haven’t had a bad meal and always quick and amazing service.

Extremely poor service. Lia took our order and then went on break immediately afterward. After waiting for over an hour with no communication, we had to follow up ourselves, only to be informed that the kitchen staff had already left and our food would not be prepared. At no point were we warned, updated, or offered an explanation during the wait. The only response was a refund, with no apology or compensation for the time wasted. This demonstrates a complete breakdown in basic service procedures and responsibility.

"House of schnitzels".. Unfortunately not anymore since changing their menu. I have been dining here for years due to the chilled atmosphere, salad bar and I topping choices for schnitzels. While I admire everything else such as the pub like environment, semi restaurant feel.. My knowledge of the new schnitzel menu is why I wouldn't come back. The new toppings aren't "traditional" (what most people would order"). I think they have been trying to compare with other restaurants. Despite the unfamiliar topping choices, its cooked to perfection.

This is one of those pubs that I have driven past multiple times but I have never stopped by to have a drink, so I decided to change that as soon as possible. When I had arrived in Adelaide one warm December morning, I managed to convince my Day to take the long way home so that we could stop here for a drink. Okay, it is basically what you would expect from your average suburban pub, though it does have a House of Schniztel attached to it (which appears to be a specifically South Australian addition to the ALH chain), meaning that they have a menu with more schnitzel toppings than you could ever try in a lifetime. What I do like about this pub is the beer garden (but then is that not the case with most pubs that have beer gardens), which has quite a nice suburban garden feel to it. Still, it is not necessarily one of those pubs that I would go out of my way to visit.

I've driven past here thousands of times and decided to finally go inside with a friend. We really enjoyed the salad bar, especially the broccoli and artichoke hearts, however the soup was incredibly salty - neither of us could eat it. My friend had the wagyu beef which he enjoyed however the chips were apparently incredibly salty. I had the chilli prawns which was boring, too much rice and too much capsicum - I couldn't finish it. I wouldn't recommend coming here but if you're being forced to I'd go with the steak.

Yay! I'm a fan. The Links Hotel have had an upgrade over the past few years, and it's looking quite spiffy if I do say so myself. As soon as you walk in you feel comfortable. I love the colour scheme of the reds and the browns, it really works and makes it feel like a pub...but better, if that makes sense. The food is pretty good, especially with a beer on the side. Considering the price you pay you get a huge amount of food. Sadly I couldn't finish all of my meal. I'm such a girl! I tried so hard, but I couldn't muster up the courage. It was nice though. I recommend the chicken parmi. If you're looking for a night out with your mates to watch the latest footy match and enjoy a good meal, then I'd head down to the Links Hotel.

So! I attempted to come here one Friday night. The place was half full, screaming kids running around. Sat at a table, decided on our meals, went and waited in line. There were 3 girls behind the bar, a man was ordering, he'd paid but continued to stand there and chat to the girls. There was another till one of them could have kept serving the waiting customers on, but they continued to talk for another good 15 minutes until I thought it was a joke and walked out. I left and went down the road to the Seaton and got my cheap but quality meal within 10 minutes of being there. I don't bother to go else where anymore.

I went here to celebrate my dads 60th birthday, we ordered our food (2 garlic breads, 4 schnitzels and fish) at 7:30pm, we didn't receive our garlic bread until 8:30 after we asked where it was, it came out cold and very dry. We sat for another 10minutes waiting for our mains and when we complained they told is our food had just been put on!! Asked for a refund and left, I will never go back!

Outdated, poor service, poor menu choices. Can't see this place lasting much longer in its current form.
