Dragon’s Den VIP Lounge

Although it looks much like every other TAB/​bar/​pub in Australia from the outside, it’s actually fairly well-​looked-​after on the inside, despite being in the heart of Auburn.
Granted, it was the middle of the afternoon, so I wouldn’t have expected the messy drunks to turn up in any case.
The bartenders were really friendly and accommodating, flashing smiles all around, which always makes customers feel better.
Their cider, by the way, is the most delicious thing I’ve tasted in a while. It tastes almost like really strong sparkling apple juice, and is no less intoxicating for its deliciousness, not to worry.
They have two well-​maintained pool tables, the cues are unbroken and unblemished (which is a rarity in pubs, I’ve noticed), and they don’t have any balls missing! Another rarity.
The premises is really clean and well-​kept, as well as being air-​conditioned (though not too cold. too cold defeats the purpose a bit, doesn’t it) to perfection.
I like it, I would go here again for a drink if I’m in the area.
