Our first time at Tradies Caringbah, the food was good value, served quickly and at the same time. The kitchen closed early so we missed having dessert and coffee at our table. This was disappointing, next time we would know to order earlier.

Front desk at 4pm on Sat 25th - I think •Bella could be wrong - she was absolutely sensational. What a team member!! Super friendly and inviting and made me so happy I’d brought my little son there. The bar team and floor manager - super accommodating. And the team in the play area - WOW. Great experience.

Another excellent meal at Tradies. The lamb skewers were succulent and really tasty and the accompanying chips were crunchy and cooked to perfection. Great to see that the revised menu has several Gluten Free options. Our group really enjoyed our meals and we will certainly be returning here!

Ordered the rump medium rare and was delivered a steak so overcooked I may as well have ordered beef jerky. The chef needs to go back to culinary school to get the basics right! How hard is it to cook a steak medium rare? Apparently very hard. Do not recommend.
