CLUB Services Ipswich (CSI) serves up quality food without smashing the budget, all while delivering strong community spirit and welcoming hospitality.
Monday lunchtimes aren’t usually the busiest time for restaurants, pubs, or clubs, but that wasn’t the case at CSI.
When I visited the Longhorn Bar and Grill, the dining room was full of happy diners enjoying a relaxed and affordable meal.
I chose from the lunchtime specials board, which had a variety of options to suit all members of the family.
My pick was the 200g rump steak – cooked exactly as I asked, medium rare – and served with thick, crispy chips, a fresh garden salad, and a side of rich gravy.
It was a generous portion, perfectly cooked, and all for just $19.90 at the members’ price. More about the value of membership shortly.
My lunch date went for something a bit more indulgent – the Double Bacon Cheeseburger Pizza. It featured a smoky baconnaise base, topped with ground beef, onion, bacon, pickles, mozzarella, and finished with melted American cheese. Priced at $29.90, the pizza was large enough to share and packed with flavour.
CSI promotes itself as a “club for all”, and it certainly lives up to that promise.
With strong community partnerships, support for local events, and free entertainment throughout the year, it’s a place that truly gives back to its members and the region.
One of the best parts of CSI is its membership. It costs just $1 for a lifetime, and the benefits are impressive.
Members enjoy access to daily food specials, discounted meals, and app-only deals that make dining out more affordable.
The CSI app allows users to earn points, view promotions, and take advantage of exclusive weekly bistro specials for just $19.90 each.
Families will also appreciate the “Kids Eat Free” app offer available on Sundays and Mondays when you purchase a Longhorn main meal.
The Longhorn Bar and Grill is open for lunch from 11am to 2pm and dinner from 5-8.30pm. On Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays, there’s all-day dining from 11am to 8.30pm.
Overall, CSI is a fantastic local spot offering great food, unbeatable value, and a strong sense of community. It is located at 5 Lowry St, North Ipswich with doors open from 10am.
