It is a Pub, not a Restaurant! The food I had was excellent. A day on my own and I found myself at the Payneham Tavern. Many, many pubs, and many many pub meals...............I decided to go for the Salt and Pepper Calamari...........and I was glad that I did. I have tended to quantify pub meals by two things, the burger or the squid!!!!!!!!! This meal was fantastic....I have never, ever had better Calamari. It is a dish that can be so great or a total disaster.......this offering was sublime.......the Calamari was cooked to absolute perfection.....moist, properly cooked, the coating of seasoned flour just hanging on to the flesh.....just the right amount of seasoning, not too much salt and just enough pepper, obviously white. To the guys in the kitchen, you got it right..................very, very right!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nice and spacious. We went there with two children and luckily they had a children's menu. Children liked their food. The staff were friendly. Schnitzel and pasta were good but salad bar was a bit disappointing.
Great place. Was able to watch 2 rugby tests on comfortable seats with great drinks, great meals and great service. Would recommend, particularly if you're keen on your rugger.
