Cooked to perfection, this huge burger definitely satisfied my craving. It came with a side of fries which were the perfect combo of crispy and salty. Service was excellent.

There were a few other patrons enjoying their meals and we all were chatting a bit and sharing travel stories and recommendations. What a great stop.

The cinema has spacious, comfy chairs to enjoy numerous showings of the latest blockbuster movies. You can even pre-order a three course meal for the movie or for $35 an adult evening movie pass and any main meal off the menu (excluding puzza abs lamb shanks). What luxury! They are definitely big on customer service and its noticeable with all the locals. If movies aren't you're thing, it's worth stopping in for a coffwe and enjoy an array of cakes, slices, sandwiches and salads. With a homely vibe and old school, boutique interior, this is a real gem!

We were trying to decide whether to order kids or adult burger for our son and the waitress could not understand why we were asking about sizes. Then, when I asked how big pizzas we're, her response was "pizza sized". unfortunately we made the mistake of then ordering the chicken, cranberry pizza. Hardly any chicken, no cranberry and cheese overcooked and sparse. Worst pizza I've ever had. We would have sent it back but we'd already had so many challenges with waitress we decided to cut our losses. Service was slow too and we would have spent a lot more if the waitress had been on top of refilling drinks etc. Apparently my eldest son said the chicken burger was great, which pushed this review from a 2 to a 3

The kids at the next table were enjoying their tall milkshakes and after a long car ride there's a pool table and mini-golf. Fish and chips were good (4/5) and while my nachos were well-presented, the guac was not freshly made and the beans (at the bottom, fortunately) were kind of a sweet chili rather than pinto, refried or black. Props for creativity, but a miss. Thai beef salad had an enormous amount of beef compared to the salad greens.

We got here after a long drive from Auckland... was the only place opened but sadly we got there close to their posted close time and being a small town they were in deed closed. I knocked to find out if there was something else around and they kindly brought us in to eat anyways. They made us a full plate a food, not just something lying around. Where to start? The food was absolutely amazing! I've never had lamb shank and was a little scared to try it but it was fantastic. The meat fell off the practically. They served it with some potatoes, a sweet potato(yum), and some grilled onion. The sauce they used complimented everything and I did all I could not to lick it off the plate. It wasn't too heavy at all. It had a flavor that reminded me of grandma's cooking. My friend had the fish and chips and enjoyed it very much! Okay back to the rest. Cute place, very moderately decorated. Not overbearing. Very clean. They even have bikes to rent. By the time I left I felt like family. Marie is incredibly sweet (so are you Bruce!) and chatted with us throughout dinner, telling us about the area, gave us a book of pictures to look through, and filled up a water bottle for me for the drive. They were just really genuine people and that made my night. This restaurant is a gem and you would be making a big mistake not to stop. If I could give it 10 stars I would!
