I wouldn't necessarily call it classy, but it has an atmosphere of being a place for semi-special occassions. They have a pretty decent selection of beers, and the surroundings do make you feel as if you were in the English countryside. Mind you, it is pretty popular, and a little pricier than what you would expect.

Appearances can be decieving, although this pub nestled in Coromandel Valley would appear to be an…read moreold relic of the bygone era with its red brick exterior, wide verandah, worn floorboards and huge log fireplaces - but the pub is only a few decades old yet retains the "old" pub feel. As the trend for pubs which look like fancy bars and fancier restaurants continues, its nice to walk into a pub with a solid wooden bar, well worn chesterfields in the front bar and fairly simple wooden tables in the restaurant expect the traditional as well; chicken schnittys, fish and chips - the works. The Duck Inn also has a great range of beers and ciders. Adelaide Hills cider has been on tap here since you could tap their kegs and their local range is superb for a small pub. Like most pubs, the Duck Inn does have pokies, but you can't hear them in the restaurant and the noise level in the bar is minimal. I'd opt for the Duck Inn on a lazy day and to sit in the Front bar next to the fire on the big couches with some beer and chips and spend your day doing not quite a lot.

It is very well priced with mains costing around $20. They have a good range of specials and although it is a little noisy on Saturday night, the ambiance is rather nice. I had the bacon and guacamole schnitzel for $18.90 and it was well cooked. The serving size was nice and it came with just the right amount of chips. They were a tad heavy handed on the guacamole in my opinion but this is much better than not putting on enough. The bacon served with the guacamole was cooked very well, as was the chicken itself. Definitely nicer than your typical pub grub and worthy of the title of "gourmet". My schnitzel was almost on par with the one I had at the Middleton Tavern, which is definitely saying something about the quality (excellent). Desserts were also rather nice. They had a good range and offered coffee for an extra $1. I had the maltesser cake for $6.90, which was very rich (but very good). This was definitely a nice highlight after a good schnitzel and made the night an excellent experience. As for the staff, they were very attentive and kind. They did seem busy but were still very polite. They were able to remember our drink orders without writing it down (there were 8 of us). The wait for the food was around 40 minutes, which ain't too shabby when you consider it was Saturday night. We did order an entree of the combination of garlic turkish breads they had on offer (cheesy and garlic), however a range of small dinner rolls were also available at the salad bar. The salad bar also featured a lovely garden salad, a good range of fruit and a nice pasta salad. It also came with the stock standard variety of cooked winter vegetables. There are small bowls up at the buffet area which are oddly shaped however allow you to get a decent portion (don't fill up too much if you are having a schnitzel though). A nice night out all in all. The front bar does look quite nice with a range of pool tables, however it was quite loud.

However if its atmosphere or class you want give it a miss!! The decor is drab, the seats worn and the carpet threadbare. If you want a beer after work in your overalls this is the place to be. The other half is made up of 50% pokie room, with some limited outdoor seating mainly for the smoking rules. The room is large, bright and noisy with all the pokies being busy! The other 50% is the Bistro. I have eaten here many times and never had a bad meal. The menu is as any other bistro menu and has all the faves. The main selling point of this bistro though is the extensive salad bar included with all meals. Not only salad but also, soup and breads, veg, fruit, sauces....as much as you want! The bistro also includes 4/5 games consoles...im guessing to keep kids occupied. As said earlier...i haven'f had a bad meal here...its not 5 star by any means but it is far from the worst!!

Anyway, that is no longer the case, but it still sort of is a pub, and the menu certainly has a good range of pub grub available, though at pub grub prices, which means that it is not necessarily cheap.
