Arriving for pre-dinner drinks on a Friday night we were promptly attended to and a waiter served us straight away. Service is always prompt and friendly here and have never had a bad night, and this night was no exception. We ordered a share plate of soft cheese, salami and bread, plus a really nice bottle of wine. The wine selection was offered initially as a tasting which worked in our favour to make a choice and we decided on the Heathcote shiraz...very nice and excellent pricing. Always a great experience at this bar before a meal.
Really good meal. Beer list is average, but got to try a Qld IPA. Wine list is solid: nice blend of price points and regions. We did a good St Hugo GSM and a couple of followers from NZ.<br/ <br/ Service was solid throughout the meal, friendly and unobtrusive.<br/ <br/ Highlights in the entree section: crab snacks, octopus. Mains were great; lamb our highlight dish. Desserts were OK. Cocktails in the bar opposite better.<br/ <br/ Would I go back? Absolutely!
What a great little place! Whilst it is quite small there are plenty of spots to sit down and chill but I do recommend making a booking. Whilst it's sister restaurant might be better for a hearty meal Gerard's Bar is a great place for beautiful cocktails and wine, and has the unique ability to create your own cured meat and cheese platter! Wow! Loved the concept! May I recommend the that you try the Wagu Chorizo! Thanks for a fantastic night!
Exceptional service! Came here for dinner with my hi husband and in laws. Our waitress was knowledgeable about everything on the menu she even helped suggest options as my father in law is allergic to chilli. We had a corked wine served to my mother in law and they were gracious enough to open fresh bottle and dump the corked wine. Food was delicious and presented beautifully. I can say we walked away feeling very full but very satisfied.

With a Sunday free hubby and I opted for a long lunch at Gerard's Bar and we're so glad we did. We had a lovely bottle of sparkling rose as recommended but the lovely waitress. Dry, fresh and perfect with our charcuterie. The soft cheese was so good we ordered seconds! The homemade quince paste was so good my quince hating husband ate it. We will definitely be back for another long lunch, next time with friends!
Cool place to drop in before a meal in the James St precinct. Sit at the bar, indoor tables or outdoors. Order at the bar. I tried an Aperol Spritz and my friend who was driving ordered a lemon, lime and bitters. Beautifully presented and came with some complimentary olives. Service was friendly and the place got busy very quickly once it hit 6pm. We paid the bill and went to dinner. Good menu available too.
Really enjoyed the chicken burger, it was deliciously crunchy and well seasoned. Chips and cocktails were great as well. Pricing was fair and friendly efficient service. Will be back again for sure
The lunch here is fast and pleasant to eat.Each visit has been to satisfaction and the service is to order.The price is correct for the quality of style and food.The coffee is strong.

I never understood love songs, but then I met Gerard’s Bar. Everything is well put together and high quality. The anchovies cured my depression.
