3 Star Review by David Froud

Had to send back our meal, as it was not warm when served to the table, including steak vegetables and chips. The manager was happy to give refund, can't really reheat the meal and have the same quality as freshly cooked Looked nicely cooked, but appeared it had been left too long before being served Staff and location good, just a shame it came out cold.

1 Star Review by Peter Collins

This has to be the worst pub I have ever had a meal at. My rump steak which was supposed to be cooked medium rare came out like leather and I was unable to eat it. My vegetables were soggy chips. When I complained to staff I was told "just got a new grill and chef was not used to it yet". When I asked about the vegetable the staff member laughed and said "I don't know what happened there". No apology, no offer of money back, absolutely nothing. If you are smart steer clear of this pub, lots more in town worth a visit. If you are reading this please spread the word as I am.

2 Star Review by Dave Shaw

Staff were great but due to a change of ownership the restaurant meals have been allowed to deteriate. Microwaved vegies and undercooked steak. Even the waitress agreed with us and suggested we might need to find a new favourite. This has always been our go to and have recommended to several that this place was the best steak in town - sadly no more.

1 Star Review by Tiarni Field

Very slow service especially for a place that didnt have many people, as well as poorly presented food. Could get a bigger burger from maccas for less than what my mum paid for. Burger bun was burnt to a crisp as well as the beef patty. I had schnitzel, it wasnt too bad. Although more crumbing then the actual chicken

A pub like no other, we will be back regularly! The staff were very sociable and hospitable, and kept our group entertained and looked after. The Guinness pie was the best Ive ever had. The pastry, filling and sides were delicious and fresh, and the others agreed!
