Fantastic vibe and wonderful, attentive staff. I went to see a band (Mermaid Bait, who were…read morefantastic as usual) but grand some wings and a beer. Wings were really delicious, wish the blue cheese was a little chunkier though. The beer was whatever the hoppiest thing they had on tap was, some red IPA. It was very refreshing and nicely hoppy! That being said it was almost $30 for wings and a beer. Felt a bit steep for what the place is. That being said without a cover for the music I suppose someone has to pay.

On a…read moreSaturday afternoon it was pretty empty, which was good to accommodate our large group (you can make bookings in advance). There was covered outside seating with heaters, good for the chilly winter afternoon. They've got a few house beers on tap - light, medium, and dark, as well as an alcoholic ginger beer. Their main food option is wood fired pizza, lot of topping varieties. It was not gourmet pizza, but solid, satisfying, with a good amount of toppings on each pizza - they didn't skimp. The standout food-wise was their nice fat chips... they were perfectly crispy outside, soft inside, and properly hot. Bottom line - solid option for a beer and some chips, a quick pizza if you're in town. Nothing fancy, nice folks...

Not overly impressed. The pork didn't look like any pork I have ever seen or eaten before, and the…read morefood was mediocre. And my major bugbear - clearing plates when we are still eating! That is NOT good customer service. The tea was awful (asked for tea and received flavoured tea) and the coffee was average. Now I understand why the place was empty when we arrived. Not recommended as it is - vast improvement is needed before I would recommend it for anyone.

I did not ask for flavoured tea and I would of assumed that the default option would of been plain tea. The waitress also started removing plates etc before we had both finished eating :( The meal was nice and consisted of seafood chowder, roast pork & vege's and ice-cream sundaes to finish. The seafood chowder was okay, but if you didnt get a piece of mussel in your mouth you would of been hard pushed to taste any seafood flavour. The roast pork was alright but the crackling was cooked to within an inch of its life (very hard) and the meat had no taste. Actually tasted more like lamb than pork to me. The roast veges were almost non-existant, but the mashed potato, carrots and broccoli were beautiful. The ice-cream sundaes were nice, the sauces were yummy but they used french vanilla ice-cream and not vanilla, although to their credit it did say french vanilla on the menu. Value for money though and worth the $32 paid.
