Beach Palace Hotel: Wednesday $2 Steak, Coogee (12 August 2009)

169 Dolphin Street, Coogee NSW 2034


Steakout!

Where's a good cheap steak in Sydney?

These $2 steaks on Wednesday nights are getting seriously popular now and when lining up you really start to wonder if it's worth the wait. When arriving at 7.15 pm there's already a queue of about 50 people waiting to order. Patience is definitely a virtue when there's about a 45 minute wait before you get to order. The steak tonight has a bit more gristle than the first time I tried it but for $2 you can't really ask for much and the ones I've tried have been better than some other cheap $5-$10 steaks I've tried around Sydney. By 9.15 pm the queues are gone so timing is crucial if you decide to check out the steaks.

Thanks for letting us know about this place...I too am curious to see what it's like.

Trissa said...

Wow - 2 bucks for steak? My brother would love a place like this - can you order more than 1 steak?

Simon Leong said...

Hi Peter, hopefully if you visit your timing will be better for a much shorter lineup.

Hi Trissa, Cock n Bull in Bondi Junction also do $2 steaks on Saturdays. You can order more than 1 steak but you still have to buy a $4 drink per steak ordered. still good value.

I had to do a double take, I thought it was a typo hehehe! That's the cheapest steak offer I have ever seen!

2 buck steaks, are you serious! what has the GFC come to?!

Forager said...

Geez. I didn't think a $2 steak would be possible! Gristle or not, for $2, who's complaining?

Simon Leong said...

Hi Brenda, I was so suspicious about a $2 steak at first but it's all good. Cock n Bull in Bondi Junction also do $2 steaks on Saturday, it's crazy!

Hi Maria, I'm keen to find an even cheaper steak. How about a $1 steak!

Hi Forager, you can't even buy a steak at eh supermarket for this cheap. i don't know how they do it. God i hope it's steak hehe
