Why people keep coming back
"Occasionally, you find a pub where you can just tell that the staff just really care about what they are doing. Super friendly, great atmosphere and more importantly a really good burger."
Nick
"Popped into Union Post and had the best time! The atmosphere is always great, but Sarah really made the night. She was super attentive, friendly, and had the best recommendations for drinks. It’s rare to get service that’s both professional and actually fun."
Victoria
"I went there for a gender reveal and the staff were so nice and provided great service, the food we ordered was very good but the price was on the high end and the atmosphere was amazing as you can see why they call it the union post"

Albie
"This restaurant bar in Ellerslie provided us a quality dining experience in all aspects. The food was great, the ambience was positive, lively and interesting, but what made this lunch-time venue really stand out was the friendliness, attentiveness and professionalism of the staff. Great place for dining in Ellerslie."
Kevin
"We stopped by here for an impromptu dinner last night. Really cool older building with great atmosphere. Our server Harry was very pleasant and able to put up with our stupid boomer jokes. Food was nice. I had a steak and it was cooked to perfection. Highly recommended for a casual night out in a really laid back atmosphere. 👍"
Nick
"I used to be a regular here in 2003. Yup, I’m old. After almost two decades living abroad I’m again an Ellerslie local and pleased that Union Post is again a local destination for me. The service is impeccable - welcoming, friendly, professional. Good selection of tap beers, fellow patrons are amicable, and the decor is tasteful and attractive. Haven’t eaten here in 22 years but I plan to rectify that soon enough. Great place with great staff. Highly recommended."
Phil
"We had a company party there. Decent food and atmosphere. Especially loved the seasonal drink- which was Mulled Wine. It was just the way I like it."
Adora
"Super friendly and prompt service. Lovely place and atmosphere. Food was extremely tasty and delicious. We had our small toddler with us and the colouring and pens were a huge hit. Excellent meal when we arrived hangry and in a bit of a rush. Thank you!"
India
"Loved this place! Beautiful space, loved the big deck!! Staff were so attentive. Large enough for functions. Would go back again."

Rob
"Great spot for a lunch and pint. I had the cheeseburger and fries—loved it, very filling and tasty. A+."
Gary
"We ordered the southern fried chicken dish, onion rings and BBQ chicken burger and honestly it was some of the best food we’ve ever had! Will definitely be coming back. The service was great and our food was delivered quickly."
Jesse
"So I booked the outside deck function area for my Mum’s birthday... It was a brilliant venue overlooking the city with all the amenities you could want for such an event. The food was great—the kitchen even baked whole salmon fillets as an extra request. All the guests were super impressed! Big thanks to Brittany and Stephen who were in constant contact prior to ensure all went to plan, and to Brittany and Emily who did an awesome job looking after us on the day. I can't recommend The Cav and the team enough! If you are planning a function it ticks all the boxes."
Andy
"Really enjoyed our afternoon Christmas function I was invited to. The service was great which I was not expecting as most pubs have crap service, in my experience. Food was amazing (sliders, chips, calamari) and we sold the place out of Veuve. Was very nice."
Adam
"A group of us booked a few days earlier for the NFL. The staff were extremely accommodating with getting us set up in a prime spot, along with having the commentary playing as well. Overall a great experience, tasty food and plenty of beer."
James
"I visited the bar today for a team lunch. I ordered the habanero chicken burger and enjoyed some laughs and drinks with my colleagues. The bar has a great selection of house wines and beers, plenty of space for meetings, and they offer some exciting sports events to watch."
Sterling
"I would like to thank The Cav for providing such a great venue to celebrate my partner’s birthday. Everything was extremely well done with no problems or hassles on my part. I would definitely recommend The Cav for any function. Pricing of tasty platters was extremely good and of high quality."
