Alongside the ribs, you’ll find flame-grilled steaks, hearty burgers, house-crafted pastas, fresh salads and desserts designed for sharing. It’s food made for the table, not just the plate.
The atmosphere is just as much a part of the experience. Every Ribs and Rumps location is a space for groups, families and celebrations, where guests can relax, laugh and stay a while. Whichever new location opens near you, you’re getting the same experience diners at Ringwood already know and keep coming back for.
Why New Locations Matter
Every new Ribs and Rumps location means the same ribs, the same steaks and the same welcoming space, just a shorter drive away. Locals in Sandringham no longer need to cross town for a proper ribs night, and once Williamstown, Knox and Box Hill open, the same will be true for those neighbourhoods too. Growing across Melbourne means more people get to pull up a chair, share a board of ribs and make a night of it.

Chicken Ribs
If you are in search of something that’s different from beef or pork ribs, then the 300gm chicken ribs can be a good choice. They are crispy and glazed with hot sauce for some heat to add to your lunch.
Corn Ribs
The grilled character of the menu is retained with the corn ribs, which are a vegetarian option. The corn is flame-grilled and then garnished with sriracha mayo, a smoky flavour complemented by a creamy, spicy sauce.
The Rump Steak
The 200gm Rump is easy to order and a convenient choice, especially on the weekend, is usually made with quality ingredients and can be a great alternative to the more expensive cuts, if you aren’t looking for one of the more premium steak selections.

Father’s Day 2026 falls on Sunday, 6 September. If you’re planning where to take Dad in Ringwood, the choice usually comes down to three things: hearty food, enough variety for the whole table, and a setting relaxed enough for a family celebration. Ribs and Rumps Ringwood covers all three, with steaks, ribs, burgers and salads on the same menu, and a room built for groups rather than quick, quiet meals.
What Makes a Good Father’s Day Restaurant
A Father’s Day restaurant needs to work for more than the person being celebrated. Kids, partners, grandparents- everyone at the table has different tastes, and a menu with real choice makes the meal easier to plan. The last thing anyone wants is half the table picking at a side dish because there’s nothing else that fits.
Ribs and Rumps fits that brief. Steaks and ribs give Dad a proper feed if that’s what he’s after, while salads, pasta and lighter mains cover the rest of the family without forcing a compromise. The kids’ menu handles the under-12s with calamari, fish, ribs, burgers and pasta, so parents aren’t negotiating over a plate built for adults.
The setting matches the menu. It’s relaxed enough for kids, with a cocktail bar and a full wine list for the adults who want to turn the afternoon into an occasion rather than a quick sit-down. Sunday hours run from breakfast through dinner, which gives families room to pick a time that suits the group instead of building the day around one fixed sitting.
Ribs and Rumps has built its name on its steaks and fall-off-the-bone ribs, and the reputation holds up. With a 4.3-star rating on Google from more than 158 reviews, diners repeatedly highlight the same strengths: well-cooked meat, generous portions, and attentive staff who make larger groups feel just as well looked after as tables of two.
What to Order
For the steak purist
The 450gm T-Bone ($67.95) is the solid choice for a dad who wants a proper cut without extra fuss. For something more, the Dry Aged T-Bone ($127.95), aged 28 days for deeper flavour, is the premium step up worth the occasion.
For sharing around the table
The Entree Platter ($58.95) is a great way to start the meal. Sticky pork belly, grilled lamb chop, karaage chicken, pork neck skewers, arancini and halloumi fries give the table enough range that everyone finds something before mains even arrive, and it keeps the group talking instead of watching the kitchen door.
For the ribs fan
Ribs, Ribs & Ribs ($85.95) brings a full kilo of pork, beef and lamb ribs to the table, slow-cooked then flame-grilled and basted in the house sauce. For a dad who’d choose ribs over anything else on the menu, this is the order that to go for.
For a big family table
Meat & Meat ($199.95) is the centrepiece option for larger groups: 2kg of ribs, porterhouse, peri-peri chicken, lamb shank and basted chicken breast served with chips and mushroom sauce, built for a table that wants to share everything rather than order individual mains.
For something lighter
Not everyone at the table wants red meat on the day. The Wagyu Beef Burger ($31.95), Thai Beef Salad ($31.95), Pumpkin and Beetroot Salad ($28.95) and Braised Lamb Shank ($36.95) hold their own next to the steaks and give the table real alternatives, not an afterthought.
Dessert
Sticky Date Pudding or New York Cheesecake ($14.95)are great ways to round out the meal, or go with an Affogato ($8.95) and add a Baileys, Frangelico or Kahlua shot stirred through, a small extra touch that works for Dad specifically.
Check the full menu before booking and decide what suits the table, particularly if the group spans a few generations with different appetites.
