5 Star Review by Mel Marshan
Fabulous inventive menu with all the pub classics as well. Good size portions. Nice cocktails. Great vibe. Best to book as can get busy in the evenings. Dog friendly on the undercover deck area.
5 Star Review by Garazi Romero Vallejo
What a discovery! I did not know you could get such delicious food at a pub. Great menu with lots of options, vegetarian too and the best thing is the quantity and quality both are great. you get full! prices are not to bad. Thr pub is huge with lots of tables and is not too noisy. Definitely a must try and I'll be going back soon.

Beautiful property! Its been said that all the attitude & eclectic vibe of the Inner West, but with a slight high-end, well it certainly reflected that ! One of the best stays I have ever had, in terms of: The staff was exceptional, very polite and helpful. Great interior design of the room, extremely clean and spotless! Excellent location and easy access to public transport!! Nil average Pub so 10/10 of overall.
5 Star Review by Simon Madgwick
Renovated and looking amazing. The food was incredible. The lamb shanks were . When I was there it was happy hour so the beers were ridiculously priced maybe $5 a schooner!! Wow. Definitely will return.
3 Star Review by Tina Gizzo
Food has been disappointing the last 3 times I've come here. A lovely place and friendly staff but the steak, the calamari and scallop entree (absolutely tiny) and the prawn pizza this evening, very disappointing. Dry and not much flavour. The steak, really tough and for $30, unacceptably so. Standard seems to have dropped since before lockdown. The garlic bread is wonderful but not enough to come back.
