Westower Tavern reviews
5 Star Review by Brent Harrison
A small group of us had dinner here recently and we enjoyed it. Out visit was to the Graziers Steakhouse dining area. There is both indoor and outdoor seating available, and we were able to reserve an outdoor table. The food was enjoyable (between us we had a variety of meals and all were happy with their meal). The staff are all happy and helpful. The kitchen is open (I like to be able to to see the kitchen) and they have an interesting viewing window into the pizza oven. There is a playground for children too. Cheers and enjoy.

Located in River St you can't go wrong with this restaurant. Lively, service is very friendly & prompt, food is super delicious.
4 Star Review by Susan Wilson-Gahan
The food was very good. The pork crackling was without doubt the best I have ever experienced. My companions also rated their food as excellent. The service was efficient and friendly. We were there on a public holiday, so every table was booked but there were no hiccups. It's a pub.

Were delighted to support the Tavern after being closed for 9 weeks. Congratulations on such great service

In this day and age, I'd assume Chefs know how to cook and cater for a wide variety of dietary requirements. However, whoever decided on the menu, needs to pick up their game. Other than a salad, there's ONLY ONE vegetarian option. Really? This is very poor form. I came for my birthday to celebrate with a few friends and family and saddened that my vegetarian guest had nothing to eat. Salad is an every day side dish in their home, so they didn't fancy a salad. Pizza was not something they felt like. So they sat at the table eating a piece of garlic bread. Please I request of you to be more thoughtful of your vegetarian folk. Aside from that, the others enjoyed their meal. The customer service was nice and the atmosphere was inviting.
