Having come from Dunns Swamp in the nearby Wollemi national park from a starting point of Capertee (Don't ask) we rolled into the picturesque little town of Rylstone hungry and thirsty. All you could see is beautiful old timey stained glass windows in the shop fronts and everything closed just after lunch. Ahhhhh yes, we're in the country now. Or are we? Have we gone back in time? It kind of felt like it. This place stood out as a beacon of normality in this otherwise dormant town. Maybe there is some time portal and this pub is the gateway to the present??? Although we had missed the bistro here at the Globe hotel we decided to stop in for a drink none the less.The group was pretty gutted as the grounds of the bistro really did look nice. Modern beers on tap further proved to me that I hadn't experienced a shift through time and space. but just to be safe, I did continuously check the photos to see if I would see myself staring back at myself from decades previously like in The Shinning. I didn't. Staff were friendly as were the patrons it must be said and with all the photos and jerseys around the place added to the community vibe the place was giving off. The place is definitely more than just a pub for the people who live here. We got a good laugh out of the framed one cent bet winnings that was framed in the TAB area. As blow ins we were made to feel welcome which isn't often the case in small town places But this place just had a friendly buzz about it. And in all honesty, the group was kind of sad to be leaving when the time came. It pretty much has everything you need in a pub stopping through including hotel rooms. As we drove away from the town, I rustled out the receipt in my pocket there clear as day on my receipt beside the drinks prices 19:22....... I knew it. Totally traveled back in time! read more
