Bendemeer Hotel reviews
5 Star Review by Chris Collum
Our first visit to Bendemeer Hotel. Won't be the last. We were in town for a car club event which had several hundred people in town for the weekend. Town was much busier than normal, the pub was no exception. Service was fast, food was very good, We had a mix of meals, cutlets, steak, a schnitzel and a burger. All meals very generous in proportion and the food was great. Hot and fresh. A large, comfortable and very welcoming pub, even though very busy, staff were friendly and happy to have a chat. Great spot. 2 minutes off the highway and well worth the visit.
5 Star Review by Rossco Milburn
This place deserves a Galaxy full of stars. I spent two nights here, and it has been the best pub stay yet! The staff here go above and beyond to make you welcome. They are so helpful. My room was extremely spacious and comfortable. The bed was so comfortable. Dining at the Bendy is absolutely fantastic, and is definitely up there with any top end establishment. Their food is cooked to perfection, and tastes so nice. If you're travelling on a bike, your trusty steed is in safe hands, and is locked up in the stable each night. If you need information in regards to the surrounding areas the staff are a wealth of knowledge as well. One place of interest is the Moonbi Lookout located about 13km south of the Hotel. Overall the Bendemeer Hotel is a fantastic place to stay at and I will definitely be back again. Only this time it will be for a longer stay so I can take in the surrounding areas. Thanks for the great hospitality, and keep up the great work folks .

Im sorry I didnt take a photo of my lunch but then again I doubt Id have fitted it into a photo. It was huge but I was hungry after 6 hours on a bike. Great setting over the river at the back. Really appreciated this pub.
5 Star Review by Deb Fallows
The publican, Leanne, made us feel very welcome. Room with ensuite was great. Clean and comfortable. The pub is lovely with nice dining areas and such nice outside garden area overlooking the river. Our dinner and brekky were good and the staff were all smiling, friendly and helpful. Plus lockable, undercover parking provided by our motorbikes. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Recommend the pub and we will be back.

Brilliant pub. As owner of The Top Pub Deepwater which is a much smaller version of Bendemeer its great to see our big brother pub doing so many similar things which customers enjoy. My meal was amazing! Gotta love a 350 gm Scotch. When travellers are talking to me raving about Bendemeer you cannot get a better live review. 10/10
