West Kempsey Hotel reviews
5 Star Review by Deb Russell
Excellent Christmas lunch for our ladies golf club! The staff went out of their way to ensure we all received our meals at the same time! Awesome!

Dinner with ex partner and my son and after a very long drive attending mutual freinds funeral afar we feed was A1 and staff so freindly and helpful. Was a pleasure after seeing a filthy Thai restaurant 5mins down the Rd with grubby rude man serving. Glad we walked away from the Thai and come here. Great for an Aussie feed

My partner and I were visiting from Sydney to my sister who lives in the country 45 mins west of Kempsey. We were looking for a place to have a meal out on Saturday nite. We decided to go to this establishment and I called and booked a table for 7pm. On arrival we could see there were 2 large groups (one was massive and took the whole outside area) celebrating in the restaurant, on placing our orders we were told there would be a 1 & 1/2 hour wait for food. We walked out and had to find somewhere else at 7:30pm in kempsey (not easy). Whilst Im not cranky at the restaurant being busy, they would have known when I booked the table that the 2 large parties being held there would cause a wait. They could have said something or not taken our booking. Our Saturday night out was ruined. We were looking forward to eating there as the menu looked great
5 Star Review by Roslyn Mearns
The hotel has just been refurbished in the dining room & outside dining area. Very comfortable and clean. New bar area for diners, besides the front bar still for regulars and serving front verandah. The menu has a lot more choices and hard to pick what to have as so many tasty sounding choices. Chose the crispy skinned grilled Barramundi with garlic mash, asparagus & spinach. Lovely presented and the most succulent fish I've had in a long time. My friend had the Moroccan spiced 4x lamb rack with chats, veg & red wine jus. Again presented beautifully and tasted absolutely delicious. I'll be going back to try their Mexican choices in tacos and fajitas and more. Besides the other delicious sounding meals. Their bottleshop has been refurbished and extended too. On top of all that, the staff and service was wonderful and done with helpful assistance and a smile. You can't go wrong with the new changes of Kempsey's "Top" pub, the West Kempsey Hotel.

Looks amazing after renovations, friendly staff, fairly busy at lunch but meals came out fast and delicious. Only bad point was that it was 30 outside and felt like 40 inside.
