Well, fortunately for me I was still able to pop in for a drink, so as to mark off all of the pubs in Grafton as opposed to having one left there hanging like a loose end. I found this place rather pleasant though, particularly since the service was rather good, and they even had some nice beers on tap, which was sort of lacking in other places. This place was actually rather nice, even if it was somewhat quieter than the others.

The old rooms are really old and dated. I'm not sure how the old owners let it get like this. The…read morerooms would have been dated in 1990! But the hotel has new owners now - an enthusiastic young couple who are really keen to make this business great. The new rooms are awesome, but unfortunately I had to have an older room this stay so I can only review based on that. The $10 breakfast deal is excellent value. When all the rooms are rennovated, this hotel will be superb. The old rooms are really old, and even depressing in a way, but it is very clean and owners with this much enthusiasm should be supported.

In a way, there was really nothing all that exciting with regards to this pub. It wasn't so much a…read morebad pub, but it just really wasn't anything all that great. In fact, it was the last pub that I visited as I made my way around the town of Grafton, before heading off to catch the train. I guess you could consider it to be one of those rather basic pubs, the types that you tend to find in towns like this. It wasn't bad, but it really wasn't all that great either.

Yeah, in these places regulars aren't just known, but they are in fact a part of the furniture. This is what I felt when it came to this particular pub. Since I was from out of town there was really no need to actually show any real customer service. Honestly, I'll just pass on this one.

A part of me thought that it may have been closed, but that turned out not the be the case, so I wandered inside. The first thing that struck me was how cool the bartender was, and the second was that they had a pretty awesome, and quite large, beer garden out the back with some really nice and comfortable couches. Actually, the pub itself had some really nice quite places for me to sit, so I'd have to say that I did quite like it.

Well, that will probably do it, but I generally don't hang an entire establishment on the attitude of one staff member.

Sometimes country pubs can be a little intimidating, but I certainly didn't find it the case with this place. In fact, I found the atmosphere to be quite welcoming and rather friendly.
