A guest in my party has a peanut allergy and they were easily able to cater to the request and made sure that everything was nowhere near peanuts. All in all this place has it all, amazing food, staff and good local musicians. I would 100% recommend this place to anybody in the area and will be bragging to my friends that I had the best wings in Australia!

Gosh i looked at the reviews and look to be an outlier. Came here for the first time this week and…read morewas pleasantly surprised. The service was very good, there was a great menu to choose from and plenty of excellent local brew. Food wise the pizza and the burgers were delish and nicely done. One of our colleagues had the chicken schnitzel which looked good on arrival and given that his plate was clean at the end, I suspect means it was tasty too. We also liked the suggested parings of food and beer, which turned out to be spot on! The only real complaint was the noise. There was great live music but it was very difficult really appreciate it because there were several large parties there and they were all having fun but we'd loved to hear the music too! We'll be back for sure. Too many beers, too little time!

I had the Chicken schnitzel w/ chips & garden salad (or creamy mash & steamed veg).

The breading was just a little bit dry for my tastes, but the chicken was tender & tasty, & the BBQ sauce was plenty to tide me over, but if I find myself back here I'll splurge for the gravy. The chips (fries) were ace. The salad was dressed with a light vinaigrette, a nice accompaniment to the fried food. My partner ordered a pizza: The Hendrix: salsa sauce base, seasoned beef, capsicum, & a mozzarella/cheddar blend & a dash of sour cream. ($14.90) Salsa base obviously makes for a bit of a strange pizza, but it was really good. Quite a large serving of sour cream, which is awesome if you like it; my partner, who doesn't, just pushed it off without any complaints. Their menu advertises mojitos, so I ordered one, but the bartender came & found me at my table a couple minutes later, apologizing profusely that they'd run out of mint. I asked for a schooner of beer instead, which she delivered with the change to make up the difference. Disappointing, but no big deal. Overall, good food for decent prices, especially when you throw in the free live music that accompanies your meal.

I'm reluctant to write a review because this places varies so much. The management often changes…read more(there's currently a good crew which is why I've given 4 stars) and every night of the week is different. It's a pretty big place and every area is also different! Generally the food is good, well priced pub grub. The drink specials are usually good value and there's a good variety on offer. But this place attracts some freaking weirdos. It's close to the train station and is often the sloppy last stop for people before they go home. Dress casual (all looks are welcome here though) come with some friends and sit on the couches and people watch over some drinks. Perhaps on the night you read this it will be totally different to what I've described. But go without expectations and it will be a fun one.

One note; I am curious why the hot fries are still on the menu. A friend ordered them when I was eating with them, and she quite literally couldn't get past a single bite. Multiple of us also tried the fries and ended up having a pretty bad reaction. ITS SO HOT. A bit of a waste of money, and the menu had NO WARNING they were so hot. Our waitress didn't clarify when my friend ordered either. When we explained how hot they were she seemed unamused and said that's often how people react (like they can't eat more than a bite or two)
