The White Cockatoo Hotel reviews
5 Star Review by Jess Flower
This is an excellent local. Trivia, badge draws, meat tray raffles. Great food on the menu, very good quality for the price and members gets 10% off. Really fun vibe and just recently renovated and dog friendly. The KFC halloumi were the best!
5 Star Review by Jane D
A lovely assortment of flavours. A very large portion so I thought it was well worth the price. P.S. Order via a QR code at the table which incurs a 1% surcharge on card payments or opt for cash payment at the counter.

What a cracking pub. Best vibe. Awesome food. Try the mulled cider! Everyone is super friendly! So many areas to explore. Add this one to your list!

Good menu options for both drinks and food. I got the chicken burger and I was delicious, very crispy. My friend got the arancini and really enjoyed it, specially the sauce. Food portions are huge by looking at the plate of people around us, good value too. Our food didnt take too long to arrive and service was really good. And is pet friendly which is always a bonus!
4 Star Review by Andrew Siu
Just a damn good pub. Beautiful indoor/outdoor feel and dogs are welcome. Staff are lovely and great selection of beers. Was a little disappointed that the gyoza was actually stuffed chicken wings and not gyoza, but still a good fusion attempt. Will absolutely be back.

Great pub & atmosphere
5 Star Review by Jessica Briansky
Met some friends for dinner and was super impressed by the relaxed pub atmosphere accompanied with excellent restaurant quality food. Perfect for catching up, hearing yourselves talk and a friendly buzzy pub vibe. The service at the bar and the restaurant was excellent. Ruby who served us at the restaurant deserves special praise for her friendly and knowledgeable service.
2 Star Review by Michael Restifo
After seeing so many recommendations online, I thought Id be fool to pass up trying this place. I really just wanted a nice classic pub feed. Unfortunately the food we had (Chicken & eggplant parmi and chips) was quite pricey and below average. The food was somewhat cold on arrival. The parmi had a plasticy looking sauce and cheese topping, but overall it wasnt too bad, just mid. The chips however were almost inedible; dry and undercooked. No crispiness to be found. I will say the range of drinks was quite impressive. The service was good for the most part and I quite liked the interior and exterior decor. The location is convenient too. Overall, I felt a little bit disappointed with my meal but this still would be an alright place to grab a nice cold beverage.
