Kootingal Hotel reviews
5 Star Review by Mitchell Collins
We eat out here regularly, Andrew and his team do a fantastic job with meals and entertainment, the kids area out the back is great for the kids.
2 Star Review by Kim
Bistro meals are extremely overpriced,ordered reef & beef $44,& rump $37,steak was not cooked how it was ordered & Vegies were barely warm. Looked like the locals reserved all the tables in the bistro,a reserved table for 2 were taking up a whole table for 6 & there was no where to sit only in the bar area on high tables. This pub is very very overpriced & overrated,will not return.
4 Star Review by Helen Macduff
Went there for evening meal. Blue Rump & well done Scotch fillet were excellent. Twice cooked pork was disappointing.

Hubby and I both had an excellent meal here for lunch. You could taste/see this was not mass-produced foods. This was handmade with care. It's an old fashioned pub which is it's charm. Bar staff were friendly. Had a great visit and fully recommend.
