Criterion Hotel reviews
5 Star Review by Michael Callaghan
Went to this pub on Saturday night which wasnt pizza night. Pizza night is Friday nights. Being a lover of pizza I asked the chef if he would make one for me - it was the best pizza I have ever had. Pulled pork - couldnt ask for a more friendly team and the chef to make the pizza on a booked out night was simply amazing - thank you

Great customer service. Amazing food!! We were lucky to be here for pizza night- cheaper and more tasty than youll find elsewhere! House made beer battered bases too! Always support local when you are travelling through and they will look after you! Also, probably the cheapest beers Ive come across on my travels! Thanks for having us!!
