I actually caught the bus out to the country to visit this pub, but then again half of the reason…read morewas because I had pretty much kicked around Byron Bay enough and it was now time to go out and explore a bit more. Well, also because it was not too far away so I could come here and check it out. Well, it turned out to be a pretty decent pub. It had a nice country atmosphere and a great outdoor deck out the back. Also it had some nice beers on tap as well. Okay, while it wasn't a favourite, it still have some charm.

Lovely grub, good portions such that we didn't stay for pudding. Not sure this pub is for everyone as I noticed several people drinking alone and appearing pushed aside by those at the bar. I would definitely return if in Bangalow.

Gastro Pub! We liked the food so much at this country pub…read morethat we came here for dinner both nights of our 2-night stay in Alstonville. The menu is sure to please everyone - it has the usual pub classics as well as some contemporary gourmet options. One the first night we had the nachos topped with slow cooked beef, black beans, guacamole and sour cream and the rolled Bangalow pork belly, on the second night we had slow cooked lamb shoulder and the full rack of pork ribs. All the meals were cooked and presented beautifully. The service is friendly and the prices are reasonable - this pub really does punch above its weight!

Still, as a pub, it was rather nice, even though it didn't have a great beer selection. Then again it does happen to be a country pub, so that is to be expected.

Okay, on the Thursday it was just a guy with a guitar, but on the Friday it was a full band, and it was free entry as well. Oh, and they also had the AFL on which was also pretty cool.

It was somewhat quiet when I popped through, but that probably had something to do with when I actually visited the place. This place certainly had a lot of charm about it, and some nice beers on tap as well. Okay, it is a bit of a hike, but it's worth it.

The bathroom has a hair dryer, shampoo, conditioner, body wash etc. this is all at a very low cost. The pool is quite large and quite invigorating. The rain water was colder than the pool. Breakfast is included too.
