    The meal at the old worldly King Henry's was superb, good ole English grub, even with a nod to the bygone era by having prawn cocktails as a starter in original mollusc glassware was fantastic, a real throwback to the 70's. The food was absolutely large, in portions and n taste, I had the traditional roast pork, and my wife had bangers and mash. Absolutely wonderful interior dining spaces all over the place, and a fabulous set of paths to wander after you've eaten, in the beautiful Dandenong's and trees everywhere. 'One issue was that the cocktails were probably not their finest work, could have been better. Food delicious, Guiness in old fashioned glassware to a treat, desserts to die for. Great place for a visit.

    Food, services and atmosphere were excellent. From the manager to the young man who served our table who is relatively new to the team but has a great understanding of customer care. I highly recommend this restaurant.

    We had a lovely family birthday lunch on the weekend. The Pig and Whistle staff were always friendly, happy to answer questions. served a cake we brought from home, provided us three candles and lit them for us. The pub ambience is very relaxed, not noisey and the lunch servings were generous. I highly recommend The Pig and Whistle.
