Bit of Mondayitis? Or maybe the weekend got the better of you? 😴🍻

Either way, we’ve got the cure.

Tonight is Schnitty Night from 5:30pm at The Mary Ellen, with a crispy, golden chicken schnitzel served with chips and salad for just $20.

No meal prep. No dishes. No staring into the fridge wondering to cook. Just a proper pub feed that makes Monday feel a little more manageable.

And if you can’t make it tonight, don’t stress – Thursday gets the schnitty treatment too.

A friendly heads-up from your local… 🍽️🍻

Winter weekends at The Mary Ellen are a busy affair, and between family dinners, catch-ups with friends, live music and footy on the screens, tables tend to disappear pretty quickly.

We’d hate for you to arrive hungry only to find your favourite table already taken.

✅ Book online in advance
✅ Skip the disappointment
✅ Focus on the important things, like what’s for dinner

We’ll save you a seat.
