    We checked out the restaurants on either side of the street and this place won as it was the only…read moreplace with the door shut as it is about 40 outside. The aircon worked and the lemon lime and bitters was prepared in a wierd way but was still good. BUT, on the ground floor there are only three low tables but plenty of bar tables. I am not athletic enough for a bar chair so it too a couple of goes before I mounted it. Plenty of TVs show the racing if you have a bet. Only sport was the replay of the NRL. There are no visible machines so I think you could bring in kids but I wouldn't as the locals who inhabit the bar are loud and the vocab leaves a lot to be desired.

    I've only been here for lunch but I've done that enough times that I really should add a review…read more The Crown was totally refurbished recently having changed names from the old One World Sports Bar. Its a basic bar with a big pokies area at the back, nightclub upstairs, and dining area at the front with bi fold windows opening out onto Church Street. The lunch special is really what draws me in veery time. For $12 you can get a range of meals with a beer - that's pretty good value even among all the Church St restaurants competing for the lunch crowds attention. I usually grab the steak and blue cheese sauce with salad and chips. Its a decent size meal and the blue cheese sauce is amazing. Just a hint though - order your steak a bit more cooked what what you would usually order. I like rare to medium so I order medium. They tend to under cook them a bit. The only downside is that you can't swap the beer for another drink and a glass of coke is about $4 so you may as well enjoy the beer! But that aside its a great lunch spot and for $12 for a meal and a beer you can't go wrong!

Pictured here is the: Brewhouse Sharing Board with a premium selection of salumi, including San Daniele Prosciutto, Salami Norcia, Cacciatorini, Capocollo and Pancetta. 'Brewhouse Cheese Board' serves 3-4 adults, with a variety of gourmet cheeses served with guava paste, dried organic muscatels, Nigella Barossa Bark and gluten free Larder and Co. sea salt wafers.

Modern, comfortable, clean and well presented. Most, if not every drink, is on tap. Beer, wine, cocktails. Just one pull of a lever and BOOM there is the cocktail you're ordered. Their burgers are master pieces of beef and bun, with three different styles of bun to choose from, including a potato bun. On their dining boards you'll be presented with your burger, fries, sauces, and a slice of pickle which looks like a murder victim which has been thrown out of little car. The only issue I had here was deciding what to order, you know you've found something good when everything on the menu sounds great. The food didn't take long to reach us and the staff where very polite.

    Situated on Lambloch estate sharing a modern building with their cellar door. A beautiful, elevated…read moreposition to indulge your sweet tooth whilst taking in the vineyard views. Wine matches listed from local suppliers if you feel like pairing the two. The dessert menu itself isn't that large in comparison to the variety on display. Apparently 50 or more options so everyone should be satisfied. Choosing however is the real struggle. Aesthetics are taken seriously here with popping colours and intricate designs. Macarons, tarts, mousse, pastries and more in all shapes and sizes. I was very impressed and smiling from ear to ear at my partner. He chose the chocolate and hazelnut cone which wasn't to my taste but I'm hit and miss with hazelnut. I picked the biku banoffee for its generous size and promise of fresh banana, dulce de leche and Chantilly cream. I was only let down by my inability to finish it. Absolutely delicious! Our bill came to $52 for the two desserts and an English breakfast tea which I didn't bat an eyelid paying at the counter. We sat down and after 5 minutes the man that took my order came over with $18 change and apologised that our order had been added to the lady before me. I had no idea but was happy they picked up on the mistake and didn't trouble me that I payed by card and simply gave me the difference in cash. If you are visiting The Hunter Valley this is an absolute must! You won't be disappointed.

    It's dessert heaven! If you like sweet desserts and even sweeter desserts this is a must try!…read morePlenty to choose from,in fact too many! This place will leave you in a sugar coma! Just be sure to bring your wallet though it's not cheap!
