Bridge Tavern reviews

3 Star Review by Ingrid Turner

$10 typical pub meal.Had chicken burger and chips- chicken was a "real" piece of chicken. Good serving, nice staff but the place is dirty. The floor makes a sticky noise when you walk on it. Tables etc were clean but a little bit of attention could transform this place.

5 Star Review by Stephen Peter

This is my favourite pub in Nowra; I strongly recommend the $10 (lunch & dinner) meals. EDIT I believe the hotel has closed (March 2021).

5 Star Review by Tracy Gooley

If you are in/going through Nowra and are hungry this pub has the best $10 lunch/dinner food around. I have been there three times now and very much plan to go back. Basic menu for $10 but I have had burger, fish and chicken snitty and portions were huge and the best chips ever! Not a flash place but there is an outside eating area and another full menu to have steak etc. Would recommend to everyone

4 Star Review by Ingrid Turner

Decent chicken schnitzel using REAL chicken not pressed stuff and really good chips. Separate salad was so fresh with a good variety. The only negative is the place is very outdated and needs refreshing. Inside smelled like the toilets had just been cleaned so we sat outside. Staff were lovely.

3 Star Review by Bryan McGlade

It's ok. We went there because of the cheap meals. The place is pretty run down and need a good spruce up. That said the food was pretty good and everything worked even if it was tired. Huge space inside and a few people there. Lots of parking out the back and the staff pretty friendly, even if one did go on about the great prices a bit much. If you want a cheap dinner and don't want to cook it yourself go here!!
