Mind you, getting here without a car can be a bit of a pain, but that has more to do with where the train happens to go. Still, it is a really nice pub, and even has some nice beers on tap. They were actually doing it up somewhat when I was here, so I suspect it will look a lot better if I end up coming up this way again sometime.

The prices were that of a typical pub ($18.50 for a chicken schnitzel, et cetera) and the food was absolutely fantastic. My partner and I both had chicken parmigianas with chips and well, I got vegetables instead of salad and he got salad. My only thing is that it is kinda short-staffed, but honestly, the food was that good, I didn't even really care. I'd go here again, and I'd bring my family too. Thanks for making my 6 month anniversary dinner with my partner a great experience.

I am not quite sure how I even ended up here, but I did, for three nights. I stayed in the motel…read morepart which was slightly down at heel, but considering what I paid, well worth it. At the pub, the first night I treated myself to a couple of cocktails. The strawberry Pom sour and the tropical pornstar martini. I loved the fruity flavors of both drinks and would be hard pressed to pick a preference, just get them both! You won't be disappointed. They are a little pricey, but lucky me-I had a two for one offer. In the end I went to the pub all three nights and always enjoyed what I ordered. I only had the cocktails the first night with my special offer because the happy hour for beers and wine is amazing-$6 a drink-you cannot go wrong. I opted for the house white wine which was decent. Regarding food, somehow I ended up down a pumpkin path. I had the wood roasted pumpkin in curry sauce and loved it! Another night I had the pumpkin satay soup of the day, and that was also delicious. Alas, on my third night I had whiting-I think that's a local fish, grilled and it was fantastic. The fish was delicate and perfect with dill sauce. The chips were the nice pub style thick cut, and tasted like fresh potatoes. A little pricey, but it balanced out with the happy hour wine. The portion size of the mains is on the small side, but most likely because we are used to such huge portions that a normal sized portion seems small. The ambiance is classic pub and the service is good. All in all a great establishment to spend some time in.

Well, if you want a pub that has it's own pet cockatoo that says 'Hello Cocky' whenever you attempt…read moreto strike up a conversation with it, then this is certainly a pub that you are going to like. Okay, it is a bit of a trek to reach, and it is also effectively in the middle of nowhere (though I am sure if you are determined enough you could walk, or at least ride a bike), but for me at least, it was certainly worth it. Okay, the pub itself is your typical country pub, and you can be assured that the publican knows everybody who walks in through the door on a first name basis (except for people like me who trek up from the city just to have a beer). They have a pretty nice beer garden, however it is one of those beer gardens that it basically a converted backyard, complete with two yappy dogs that want to play with you while you are having a beer. This pub certainly has a character of its own, and I know I would be very tempted to stop by here again if I am ever in the area.

Any pub that doesn't succumb to the lure of the pokie machine is going to be a good pub in my books, and it certainly was a good pub. In part it felt like an inner-city pub, yet it still retained that rural feeling about it, probably because there was a building out the back called 'The Barn' that happened to be a function room (and there was also a barbecue under the shelter). Okay, it still seemed to be a place where the locals would sit at the bar chatting with the bartender, but I didn't let that get to me, especially with the lounge area sporting some rather interesting artwork.

A mate and I were heading down to meet his dad on the jetty who was trying his luck with the Leather Jackets. We headed in for a pint or two to kill some time and found ourselves in a conversation with a couple of the locals. Apparently I don't know 'shit' about fish'n and I drink like a nancy boy! Now, I admit that I know bugger all about fishing, but I smashed that tool in a skulling contest....I may drink slow normally but I know how to open my gullet when it counts bitch! Anywho, just an average pub with a bit more soul than most. The locals add a bit of colour, which I like, and can get a bit rowdy....which I also like! Meals are pretty cheap, and the tap beer prices are on the lower end of the scale which also treats the wallet kindly.

There is one major reason that I give this rather ordinary hotel a high rating and that is because…read moreI left $40.00 sitting on the counter for some completely unknown reason and the next thing I knew one of the staff had come up to me and handed it back. Seriously, you never get honesty on that scale (actually you probably do, but then again I generally don't make a habit of leaving money sitting on the bar - I must have had one of those blank moments). Anyway, this pub is actually nothing all that fantastic, though it is one of the first pubs that you hit when you enter Adelaide along the Port Wakefield Road. Basically it has everything you would expect from your standard pub - pokies, a bistro, and a TAB, as well as an adjoining motel. Still, the honesty of the staff in this place must be applauded.
