Galley Diner, Daylesford - Order online from our menu

"Great service, mouth watering burgers.

"We waited 45 minutes in a mostly empty establishment for the most underwhelming burger I've ever had. They couldn't have cared less how long we waited when I asked about the status of our order. The service was disinterested, sultry and made Fitzroy hipsters look like go getters in comparison. The burger itself was embarrassingly amateur - I'd be annoyed to have this served to me at Macca's or at a backyard BBQ, let alone at an establishment charging city prices. I can only assume that anybody who has given this place a good review is either a friend of the diner, were paid for it, or has never eaten anything in their lives. Honestly, eat anything and anywhere else

"Love coming here for the fried chickens and chips everytime I'm in town. The fried chickens come with great flavour, crispy on the outside whilst well cooked and juicy on the inside. Their simple potato chips are always very fragrant and taste authentic. They must get these spuds from local farmers as they don't taste like the ones you'd get in the city of fast food places. For those more daring, try their spicy AF chickens, it is VERY HOT. They also seems to always have home made sauce which is done by local sauce supplier. Look for the non labeled bottles, they go really well with the chicken. The place is casual and staff always friendly otherwise. We were late for lunch the other day and they just let us sit inside past 4pm to slowly enjoy and finish our meal.

"Service was quite average, staff all seem to have better places to be. The food was quite expensive considering we got a half filled basket of cheap chips that were room temperature for $9. Need to lift their game, served flat soft drinks from the bottle, when we returned them they clearly opened a warm bottle of soft drink and tried to add a bit of ice, still tried to sting the full price and were reluctant in giving any refund. Other customers were having clear problems returning food also during our visit.

"Try hard American style burger joint. Front of house staff least bothered. Asked for new sauce bottle twice, as all the sauce bottle were empty. No more sauce was the reply. Tomato Sauce was Coles brand, the American style mustard sauce also Coles brand. Onions 1" thick cuts oily and over cooked. Burgers below average slapped together, buns from Coles. Burgers served on paper 5" plates.
