AFL Kitchen & Bar

Regular visitors on landing before we head home. Darmin is terrific, welcoming and always service with a smile.

“Eggs Benny” looks standard but very delicious, good coffee!

Great food Great service. Love the hotdog and the bloody mary. Props to the girl with headscarf, greeting us with the biggest smile even when busy.

Disappointment service. It took a long time to get our drinks and food.

service is below average. Chicken Parmi was dry and our cocktails were very watery.

Excellent service. Kudos to AJ. The last time I was there, he was very helpful and hospitable. That is the reason for me returning again today and again he is friendly, helpful and provided great service.👍😊

Good coffee tasty food attention to detail best value at the airport.

$24.50 for a cheese burger, you'd expect it to be at least half decent. The beef patty was so dry it was hard to swallow, if a burger had been frozen for 100years I'd imagine this is what it would taste like. The fries were decent, but then again who can't fry up some frozen fries on a set timer. The fried fish were also very dry, either the food standards here are appalling or the cooks here obviously don't care enough. I'd recommend the neighbouring venues for better food at a better price.

Great food and excellent service. Loved cocktails made by our bartender Darmen. Will be back.

Great spot to wait for your flight. Excellent cocktails. Try the Bloody Mary.

Excellent! Wish we could eat here regularly! Thanks for great pizzas!

Great food and service. The prices were decent for a family of 5 with 3 kids. Definitely would recommend.

Really decent coffee, nice pizza and a bonus free fish and chips (child eats free with parents). Music a little loud but didn’t affect our visit! Friendly quick service too.

Ordered a chicken parmi, it was over cooked and tough to eat, for $29 plus $2 for the gravy wasn't worth the money.

Just a bar with kitchen ...don't set standards too high

My brother and I had drinks 🍷 to fill in the time Darmin looked after us well hope he is tomorrow great job 👏

Family friendly spot for a drink and bite to eat pre flight. I love the Brownlow references on the back of each seat. I saw a few Hawthorn Hawks players named, such as Sammy Mitchell and Dippa!

Food was average, Parma was ok, the garlic bread" pita was close to inedible it was so dry. We left it on the table. The pizza was just a pita bread with cheese and sauce and was burnt underneath."

Had a wonderful experience, food was delicious specially pepperoni pizza but above all was the top notch service given to us by our bartender Darmin. We briefly met him first at Park Royal Hotel during our stay and we were delighted to see him here. It's stunning venue and has a great vibe. I really appreciate Darmin for his utmost professionalism and service experience. He made the experience worth writing a review about. Would definitely go back again in the near future.

Grand Final Day. The bar has gone to the effort of lots of balloons etc. Looks great. However, isn't showing the GF live. No free to air connection, and only has Foxtel. What an oversight. Got to the airport early to watch the game before my flight. What a waste of time.

I had missed two flights in a row so thought I would pop in for a beverage. Feeling quite defeated I was greeted by the biggest smile from the bar man who I now know as Dharmin When he was not serving he insured I was ok and made light funny conversation with me to lift my spirits. I felt like he was an old lost friend. I also found him to be very professional and friendly to all the people that came in. I applaud his approach and friendly approach.

A cool spot for footy lovers to hang out while waiting for check-in counters to open, or to have the first “airport beer” before starting the trip. I ordered chips, toasties, and a couple of coffees. The they were good—nothing to complain about.

AJ has been a great gentleman this morning. Very hardworking, honest and helpful!

Legendary

Worst coffee Melbourne, I couldn't drink it as it taste like mud. do not go here if you respect yourself.

I came early to the airport so could watch a game and have nice meal but lady told us that kitchen is closed and it was not even 7.50pm. disappointing!

The experience was really awful, they just gave me a little red wine with 17 dollars! And the glass was totally wrong.

Fantastic bar, exceptional service. Our barman sage is an absolute credit to the venue

Sage served really nyc to us

So disappointed to find there was an AFL Bar then to go to the AFL bar and they were not, and could not, play the AFL on their screens.

Ok.. so if you call yourself an “AFL” bar, one would assume that if you start watching a game you don’t close the doors on the customers at half time !(approx 9pm) sure you might do that if your a normal pub but NOT if your an AFL BAR…… give yourselves another name for the love of God. Or at least rename your self to “Almost AFL Kitchen & Bar” or “HALF AFL BAR… sort of” you get the point of and of course your food prices are out of control. Give you two stars cause at least I watched HALF a game

Sage was great, superior customer service

Nice meal...Caesar salad...BUT couldn't find a seat with Ollie Wines...brownlow winner 2021 anywhere?????? ALL seats had previous brownlow winners with labels?????

Order the margarita from sage. They are incredible

Great good and great service, staff is friendly and helpful.

Fantastic bar staff

I tell you what: the AFL kitchen and bar is kicking goals with Pirate Life on tap together with all of the usual fare, food prepared fresh on site by talented kitchen staff. The food is fresh and tasty, the staff are lovely, the beer is delicious, the game is playing on the big screen, the punters are relaxed and happy. Could you ask for more? This is the place to be at the airport... forget the flight lounge.

Drink is quite expensive. All good other than that.

Served by Jason in the bar and made us feel welcome great way to start our holiday, we will be back Thanks Jason

Absolutely furious. We visited on Saturday before going on our flight. Food and service was all fine. We then ordered a baby chino for our toddler, it was brought to our table and we gave it to our 2 year old. He took 1 sip and screamed, the milk was scolding hot!! He was in so much pain. I told a staff member and her response was “I didn’t make it”.. and that was it. Our toddler then had visible burn marks on his chin, neck and tongue. He was complaining of having a sore tongue for the entire next day. To the owners: please teach your staff that a baby chino is made with cold or slightly warm milk.. Any trained barista knows this. This could have been much worse, you should consider yourselves lucky that I didn’t take it further. We should have checked the temp first, but never ever do baristas make baby chinos with hot milk. So I trusted that your staff were trained. Please train them better. This shouldn’t happen.

Sage provided a welcome change . Great service .

Sage was fun and made us laugh. Thanks For the stubby holder.

Great experience !!

The calamari and Southern chicken were sooo delicious 😋 will come back again

Food was tasty and service was great, will be back again.

Our barman was lovely

Comfy and cosy place to relax while waiting for a flight. Good staff, fast service and enjoyable food

Ordered the chicken parmigiana, delicious as were the housemade chips. Loved everything about it 😁

Everything I’ve had here has always been absolutely delicious! It’s my go-to place for lunch and the service is always 110%. If you’re looking for some delicious calamari or a beautifully cooked Parma before you fly, there’s no better place than the AFL bar

Great food, wonderful service and great variety for all ages. Was so relaxing and was even able to sit on my favourite footballers chair. Well done AFL

Best atmosphere at the airport. Great service. Great music. Awesome footy vibes.. and the food is delicious.

Great food, friendly staff, today Sage helped me out with my lunch and everything was great as always 🙂

Service is trash. Toasted sandwich and coffee has to be the same price when you don’t drink coffee or tea can’t even do soda water. Serve yourself with that trash app or wait forever well they do nothing. Don’t even give it on a plate when you also have another meal. $8 for toasted cheese go to the other place at least they smile

AFL isnt usually my thing, but while here late for training, the food was great and the atmosphere was nice. Friendly faces all round, overall a very pleasant experience! Thanks guys!

Sage

Awesome staff. Looked after us before our long haul flight. Plenty of sport on the TV's. Good atmosphere. Will be back next time we're in Melbourne.

Service was great - food was good - beer was cold!

Great place tucked away from the business of the airport. Highly recommend if you’re waiting for a flight.

Relaxing place to chill before your flight. Great food and service

Good place to eat at the airport

Amazing Aussie atmosphere with footy vibes all round- staff are amazing and energetic. Great for a pre-flight drink. Kids eat free too!

Loved this place - flight was a bit delayed and hit it up for the drinks. Great service.

Very clean great for kids and no judgement if they’re noisy or walking around, the staff were very friendly also !

Jason is the best bartender ever !!!

The staff are extremely friendly and make the best drinks!!

Great staff. Very friendly & attentive

All good

The chicken wing was tasty and good service

The gentleman on the shift was amazing. Very attentive and caring. Please praise this gentleman properly, he deserves it. Speaking about AJ.

I work In the airport and come here frequently. I was served by aj and he said he couldn’t give me a tax receipt for my order ? When I tried to provide my feedback he just laughed. The service is always poor and the coffee is disappointing. Better of trying the cafe next door

Don't even consider this if you are looking to eat something. Even garlic bread was crappy.

Best espresso martini

My fone almost ran out of battery Saw AFL K & Bar Lucy, the barmaid has excellent service, friendly and informative. Thank you Lucy

Great for a morning coffee and breakfast before a flight. Great service, nice atmosphere and reasonable prices.

Sauber und nette Bedienung

Highly recommend! Great service and friendly staff, food was delicious. Had a great experience and will definitely come back
