“ We can’t thank the team at Bossley Restaurant and Bar enough for making our wedding day even more special. Our lunch there with our bridal party, photographer, and videographer was one of the absolute highlights of our day. It was the perfect chance to relax, soak in the moment with our closest friends, and enjoy some truly spectacular food and drinks. The experience was incredible from start to finish. The staff went above and beyond to make sure we felt welcomed and looked after. When I mentioned that my bridesmaids and I would need to leave for hair and makeup touch-ups, the team graciously encouraged us to stay and even accommodated our hair and makeup artists, ensuring they had everything they needed. This thoughtful gesture allowed us to feel pampered and at ease before heading off to our reception. Those couple of hours at Bossley were unforgettable, and we are already planning to come back to celebrate soon. The atmosphere, hospitality, and delicious offerings made it an experience we will always treasure. Thank you, Bossley, for making our day so fabulous! ”
“ went out with friends tonight to bossley. Charlie was our host. He is so friendly and easy to approach. Whenever we needed him, he always came promptly to serve us. He explained the menu clearly and patiently and suggested us the best option for us - even though we still ordered the snapper, it's okay. The fries are the best like the one I had in England so nice! Octopus is also good and the drinks. All the vibes and the services are fantastic! I would strongly recommend bossley for the place to catch up with friends. ”
“ Wow, what a delicious meal, all of our dishes were amazing, mouth watering in fact. The crab cakes were a great start, and the ribeye & fillet were requested medium rare, and were cooked to perfection! We were warmly greeted and experienced great service. I highly recommend Bossley. ”
“ Most likely the best steak in town. 1.2kg ribeye (on the bone) cooked rare to perfection with the perfect amount of salt and nothing else just meat .. absolute perfection I’ve not eaten much variety in Melbourne because of this place when I do come here - this is where my dinner will be eaten. ”
“ We are so glad that we had a chance to have dinner at Bossley’s tonight. Food was absolutely delicious, dish sizes were quite good, prices reasonable and lovely staff. My personal favourites were ‘Rump Cap 200g, 28 days aged, Gippsland, VIC, smoked bone marrow butter, watercress’ and ‘Lakes Entrance King Dory, roasted fennel, lemon, almond, brown butter sauce’. Chips were nice and crispy. Both Tiramisu and Snickers desserts are yummy. If you are after a less sweet dessert, then go with Tiramisu, otherwise Snickers is very yummy , packed with peanuts dessert. The atmosphere was great, the only thing I would prefer less music, but given this is a bar too, it’s expected, I suppose. I would highly recommend having a meal at Bossley ”
“ Steak and desserts at the Bossley are excellent. Really relax atmosphere; lighting not too bright and music not too loud - great to have a chat. And our waitress (Emily) was amazing. Just the right amount of following up - not to much that we were constantly interrupted, but just enough that we were never forgotten about. ”
