Family friendly up-market pub without the "up-market" prices or snobbery…read more Good quality food with all your favourites on offer - burgers, salads, schnitzels, steaks, pastas, fish, chicken and a handful of daily specials. The staff are always friendly, the order at the counter service is efficient and great for groups (none of that - "I had x,y,z... well who had the a,b,c" messiness that comes with splitting the bill). It can get incredibly busy and bookings are reccommended (even if you just call on the day or when you are on your way in) They host a weekly quiz night and there is a huge members base that participate frequently - a lot of local competition. Highly recommended.

Well, when I saw the large no pokies symbol on the outside of the pub I knew that I was going to…read morelike this place. Any pub that doesn't succumb to the lure of the pokie machine is going to be a good pub in my books, and it certainly was a good pub. In part it felt like an inner-city pub, yet it still retained that rural feeling about it, probably because there was a building out the back called 'The Barn' that happened to be a function room (and there was also a barbecue under the shelter). Okay, it still seemed to be a place where the locals would sit at the bar chatting with the bartender, but I didn't let that get to me, especially with the lounge area sporting some rather interesting artwork.

In fact, what's really cool about this place is that they have proper English beers on tap. Okay, I have to admit that I honestly am not a fan of English beers, namely because I just don't like the way they are made (they tend to taste like flat soft drink), but it is still cool that they have them available, no doubt because it makes me feel like I'm actually in England. Yeah, this place is awesome. Oh, and they have a beer garden as well.

Okay, it is located in a rather touristy area, and it certainly does have some charm as well. I thought that the scnitzel was, well, really, really good, but it also went further than that to have some nice beer selections as well. Yeah, this is certainly one of those pubs that I have no problem whatsoever returning to.

Nothing to complain about tonight other than the annoying baby that was mine haha…read more Although busy a lovely atmosphere in the pub. Large variety on the menu and a great specials board. The salad and veg bar is lovely because they haven't added meat to everything so it was all vegetarian. I had a stunning pumpkin soup no faults. Chicken schnitzel was moist and yummy and the vegetarian lasagne while lacking a bit in veggies was amazing too. Staff were so nice and actually advised us that we could order something cheaper and get the same item therefore saving us money and offered a taste test of cider when I wasn't sure which one I wanted. Then came the best part - dessert time! There was a lovely dessert special menu so they must change from time to time, I highly suggest tasting one of these desserts! Will definitely be back.

While the beer selection wasn't particularly impressive (which is often the case in country pubs), the atmosphere made up for it. The pub itself was quite charming, and the beer garden was a lovely touch. It was a bit quiet during our visit, but that was probably just due to the timing.

We came for the psychic fair and they were very run off their feet and sadly it was reflected in the service and food. My coke tasted like soda water and my lasagne was burnt (yet tasty). I would love to come back and eat on another day when we are not shunted into the over flow room and forgotten about. We were given table water but no glasses to drink the water which was really frustrating. Gorgeous pub and great tasting food (minus the burn!) will be back for another try!

This is actually a pretty quiet country pub, and a pretty nice one at that. There is a large outdoor area, and also a terrace area out the front. However, the thing that I liked the most about this place was the fact that they had craft beers on tap. Then again, any place with craft beers is going to be a pub that I like.

Managed to get a table in the dining room, and decided to order a few of the starters and a bottle of local wine.

This one seems to be one of the more popular ones, though it wasn't too crowded so as to put me off. However, as a pub it certainly wasn't too bad, and they also have a rather nice beer garden, though I sort of suspect that it really isn't used considering that people in country pubs tend to go out the front to smoke as opposed to going into the beer garden.

We ordered steak _well done, no blood_ and had to send it back 3 times. Each time it came out raw with blood running across the plate. Staff shrugged and said "steak is cooked with blood coming out, it's natural". Hygiene is non-existent - 0/10. The waitress had her fingers all over the food when she brought the plate out. After all the back-and-forth to the kitchen, we both got sick. It genuinely felt like something was done to the food. The staff stand around gossiping about customers loud enough for everyone to hear. When we raised the issues politely, we were treated like rubbish. To top it off, I received an aggressive, insulting email from the manager/owner saying we are no longer welcome, just for complaining about raw food and poor hygiene. *Food*: Undercooked, unsafe *Service*: Rude, unprofessional, gossipy *Hygiene*: Disgusting - staff touching food *Management*: Hostile and unaccountable Avoid at all costs.
