About Grand North | Tavern, Bistro & Sports Bar

No fuss, generous portions, and cold pints—Grand North nails the suburban pub feed. Regulars know the drill: grab a booth, head straight for the complimentary salad and vegetable buffet, then clock the daily blackboard specials. Tables consistently point to the Bushman's chicken schnitty—crusted, fried crisp, and weighed down with bacon, diced onion, and barbecue sauce. For beef, the kitchen turns out porterhouse steaks with peppercorn sauce fast and hot, even when the dining room fills up for milestone family birthdays. The back of house accommodates tricky dietary requests without missing a beat, right down to vitamised Atlantic salmon.

  • Bushman's Schnitty: Crumbed chicken breast stacked with bacon, onions, and smoky barbecue sauce.
  • Salad & Veggie Bar: An all-you-can-visit fresh salad and hot vegetable buffet included with bistro mains.
  • Dietary Care: Kitchen prepares custom textures including vitamised Atlantic salmon for guests with dietary requirements.
  • Oval Views: Bistro and bar seating looks out over the adjacent sports oval for game-day drinks.
