This is the thing that I love about South Australian pubs, and that happens to be that they offer beef schnitzel literally everywhere. Well, it turns out that everywhere doesn't include this pub, unfortunately. Still, despite that this pub was rather nice and certainly suited to its location in a leafy Adelaide hills suburbs. In fact, it was the first time that I have visited this pub, particularly since I never expect there to be a pub here, or at least didn't see one in numerous times I have pass through here. Well, I guess there is a first time for everything.

Gas and wood fires, they even have blankets outside for the cold days. Breakfast special is awesome as is the coffee. My new favorite spot!

Finally, I had located a pub in the Adelaide Hills that actually had schnitzel on the menu. Well,…read moreI've actually been to this place a few times, but that is probably not all that surprising since I did grow up in Adelaide, and have also known a number of people that lived in the area. It is actually quite a nice pub, with some rather friendly staff, that is also located in a really nice part of the area. Oh, they also had some decent beers on tap as well.

I got back in the car and went for a little drive down the road. Before I knew it, this pub loomed out of the greenery of the hills, and I suspected that I had found what I was looking for. Upon entering, I discovered that I had attended on Schnitzel Night. There were three choices on the specials menu television. None of them particularly met my desire, although I did want a schnitzel. I suppose I could have ordered any one of them, and requested all the topping to be removed and substituted for a mushroom sauce, but no, it didn't occur to me, so I just ordered the standard schnitzel off the normal menu. And it was absolutely delicious. The crumb was excellent, the quality of the chicken was probably one of the best I've seen in a pub in South Australia, and the mushroom sauce was beautiful. The staff were friendly, and the meals came out very quickly. I think I'll go back very soon.

We'd had many lunches and dinners over the years there always good. This time however... I developed a dreadful FOOD POISONING from tje undercooked chicken. I'm a nurse and know this was poisoning. I couldn't work for a few days and was extremely unwell after paying a good amount of money for the lunch. Apparently your chef ( at the time ) likes to UNDER COOK chicken and fish. I told your restaurant x3 about this and nobody ever contacted me.. I asked to speak to the manager BUT this never occurred. I was mortified at your lack of care as potential salmonella and food poisoning is dire for people. I won't risk eating there again.
