We usually eat here at Klaus’s Brasserie at the Paddo RSL after a movie at the nearby Chauvel Cinema. We’ve never been disappointed and last Saturday night was no exception: excellent value and delicious food. Even the drinks here at the Paddo RSL are reasonably priced: I paid $8 for a schooner of local beer and a soft drink.

Staff are friendly and polite. You pay and order at the counter and within 10-15 minutes a friendly waitress is delivering the meals to your table.

I had a traditional Wiener schnitzel, which comprised two generous pieces of fresh, tender schnitzel coated in a thin, crispy batter and cooked to perfection just the way I like it. It was accompanied by a healthy serve of creamy coleslaw and thin, crunchy chips. My wife had a beef burger which also came with chips and coleslaw. The burger meat was soft and full of flavour. We also ordered a side of red cabbage, which was sweet and tasty and the perfect complement to the meat.

All for $45: that’s nothing to complain about.

Atmosphere is fairly typical of an RSL club: bland, 1970s style decor but homely and comfortable with the carpeted interior absorbing some of the noise from a bunch of rowdy patrons sitting nearby. Place was about 70% full: Not bad for around 9’ish on a wet and windy Saturday night in autumn.

This is the ideal venue for a supper after a movie or I guess any other time you happen to be in the area. It’s conveniently located a few doors down from the Paddington Town Hall on Oxford Street.

Just be aware that because it’s a club, there is a minor logistical problem of membership. Non-members need to sign in and if you live within a 5km radius, you’ll need to show the badge of another club.

Stopped by for a quick dinner before going out in the city as they advertised a buy one roast get 1 free. It seems that they have a new chef, and I have to say the roast was amazing and best value in town with this deal. Good plus to have heaps of TVs for sport.
