So we were heading out to our favourite local pub tonight for a last dinner before my friend boards a plane for the UK for the next several months, unfortunately they are closed on a Tuesday. So we head here, order the bruscetta and 2 specials of the day which was flathead and chips. The bruscetta comes out, a little slow for a quiet night and restaurant. It's served in ok bread, maybe a little dry and with really quite strong onion (we like onion, but it's a bit much), on the upside the vinegarette dressing was nice and light. Now the flat had mains - they were something else, the worst I've had anywhere. These were so oily I chose not to eat my dinner and whilst my friend insisted she would eat the $33 dish she also gave up. As your knife touched them oil poured out which was made worse by the fact they were luke warm, mushy (cheap frozen fish I would guess), and not salted at all, lucky they have these awful 2 in 1 salt and pepper shakers that cover your food in pepper when all you want is salt. The chips were white, soggy and unsalted, why does your chef not understand how to submerge food in hot oil? It's the easiest form of cooking, although nothing would help the cheap mushy fish. We were trying to raise someones attention to let them know how terrible it was but were ignored by everyone. Decor is fine, light, bright like an average pokies venue. Bar service, staff that ignore you and filthy men's toilet on the bistro side with stains on both seats - you know what I'm getting at right? So the moral of the story is we spent $90 for 3 tiny pieces of bread covered in onion and went home where we are munching on servo food. Seriously unimpressed your food and service is this poor whilst your prices are the same as the best eateries around you.

Went here for a friend's birthday. The meals are great value for money and not on the small side! Staff here were very helpful and friendly. The Seafood Platter for 1 is a lie, it will own you. You've been warned 😉

First meal there with hubby. Seated promptly, excellent service from friendly floor staff. Lots of choices on menu, we opted for roast of the day ( lamb) meal was HUGE, probably should have had Seniors option. Food was hot, lots of tender meat but they forgot the roast potatoes, but once mentioned to staff was quickly rectified with a sincere apology. Considering the venue is operating with minimal staff numbers, overall they did a great job. Will definitely go back soon.

Excellent service and food. Sarah and the restaurant staff are absolutely fantastic!! I have several food allergies and am vegan. They managed to quickly sort out a beautiful and tasty meal for me. I will definitely be back!!

Absolutely delicious local pub! One of my favourites for sure! Service is always amazing and staff always go above and beyond. Would love if the salmon and risotto from a couple of months ago came back as it was delicious.

Meals were fast but overall no flavour and next to no dressing on salad. Garlic prawn, no creamy garlic sauce ( more like seared in pan ) and no garlic at all. Rice was hard and centre cold. Small bowl of chips on side. Parmalat ok with small amount of chips underneath. Kids nuggets and chips were a good size.

Decor ,table settings are arranged very well, food and beverage selections are awesome. Staff and service excellent. Well worth a visit, we will be back.
