Kempsey Macleay RSL Club reviews

4 Star Review by David Stanmore

Elle and I went to Kempsey for a Saturday drive. We called in and had a lunch at the R'ee. The restaurant is a superb space, huge glass windows overlooking the massive river. The restaurant features nice big chunky timber tables and comfy chairs. Chef and staff are outstanding. We had crispy pork belly and veg and Atlantic Salmon. Awesome, the food is brilliant for an RSL. Large serves. We had a couple of Lashes and red wine, all just perfect. Leigh and the rest of the staff are great and very accommodating. Go to this iconic venue it's worth it.

Awesome Waterview and food is excellent. Attentive staff .. what a rare find in a small town. It's worth making a special stop when you travel up and down M1

5 Star Review by Terry Aquinta

Stopped off on my road trip from Sydney. The Club looks old and run down from the outside, almost looked like a western Sydney factory. Inside a bit more modern . The restaurant was great, had the pork snitzel and wasnt expecting much but it was really delicious and a generous serving to add. Flavours worked well together and cooked perfectly .bravo
