If you are after a generous sized and well cooked pub meal in the Adelaide Hills, the Stanley…read moreBridge Tavern is the place to go. This pub is typical of the Adelaide Hills, offering a nice sized dining area and cozy fireplace near the front bar for the winter. There is something homely about the pub and its staff. I do recommend their speciality "Benny's Ribs" which are sweet with Hoisin sauce and well spiced. This meal comes in different sizes, 3 ribs, 6 ribs or 12 ribs in entree and main size served with crunchy wedges and fancy slaw. These ribs are worth getting messy for! Meals priced $13 - $35, so there is something to suit all budgets. One little surprise at this fine establishment is Benny. While eating my ribs I noticed a little dog walk through the dining area. I absolutely love dogs, and enquiried about him. Especially after seeing him featured on the menu. I was told by the staff that was Benny and is not actually owned by the pub. He is a neighbours dog. Apparently Benny makes his way from the neighbours house around lunch time every day and hangs out at the pub until his owner meets him for a knock off drink and returns home. How cute! This pub is definitely family friendly!

We ordered steak _well done, no blood_ and had to send it back 3 times. Each time it came out raw with blood running across the plate. Staff shrugged and said "steak is cooked with blood coming out, it's natural". Hygiene is non-existent - 0/10. The waitress had her fingers all over the food when she brought the plate out. After all the back-and-forth to the kitchen, we both got sick. It genuinely felt like something was done to the food. The staff stand around gossiping about customers loud enough for everyone to hear. When we raised the issues politely, we were treated like rubbish. To top it off, I received an aggressive, insulting email from the manager/owner saying we are no longer welcome, just for complaining about raw food and poor hygiene. *Food*: Undercooked, unsafe *Service*: Rude, unprofessional, gossipy *Hygiene*: Disgusting - staff touching food *Management*: Hostile and unaccountable Avoid at all costs. Made us sick and then banned us for speaking up.

Anyway, they had a nice beer on tap, which I certainly did appreciate, and the service wasn't too bad either. They also have quite a decent sized beer garden, but we ended up spending most of our time in the front bar, which was quiet, and really nice as well.

The best football club. I have a bit of a not very important, albeit obvious bias…read more I had been to the Football club occasionally, but this year was my first as a player and member. Although my talent is questionable (the question being if I have any) I quickly felt welcome at the club. I hadn't played any organised sport since Primary School, so really I was happy to not die after my first training. While some of the buildings seem a little old, the interior has recently been renovated and expanded. The facilities are more than adequate, and there are always plans floating around for future improvements which really adds to the positive attitude at the club. The newest improvement has been the expansion of the dining area and kitchen, which can be hired by the public. Another great asset to the club is the grandstand, the biggest elevated undercover seating area in the entire Hills league. Being in the hills in winter, any undercover seating is great. There is also an outdoor bar under the stand alongside a bbq so there's no good reason to stray too far from the grandstand. On Saturday nights throughout the season the club is open for dinner, all are welcome not just players and members. The menu has a fair variety, mostly pub food based. Schnitzels with various toppings being the most popular (being at least as good as a pub schnitzel at half the price, it's not hard to see why). Separate from meals, the bar is also open Saturday nights. Whilst the range may be minimal, they never run out of what they do stock. The cocktail menu is the most popular with the younger crowd. There are many other postives about the club and facilities, the most notable being the recent string of success at the club. Premierships don't necessarily make a great club, but a great club always has the potential to win premierships. Next winter I look forward to "heading down the club".

Finally, I had located a pub in the Adelaide Hills that actually had schnitzel on the menu. Well,…read moreI've actually been to this place a few times, but that is probably not all that surprising since I did grow up in Adelaide, and have also known a number of people that lived in the area.

I got back in the car and went for a little drive down the road. Before I knew it, this pub loomed out of the greenery of the hills, and I suspected that I had found what I was looking for. Upon entering, I discovered that I had attended on Schnitzel Night. There were three choices on the specials menu television. None of them particularly met my desire, although I did want a schnitzel. I suppose I could have ordered any one of them, and requested all the topping to be removed and substituted for a mushroom sauce, but no, it didn't occur to me, so I just ordered the standard schnitzel off the normal menu. And it was absolutely delicious. The crumb was excellent, the quality of the chicken was probably one of the best I've seen in a pub in South Australia, and the mushroom sauce was beautiful. The staff were friendly, and the meals came out very quickly. I think I'll go back very soon.

Not what I wanted, if it wasn't for the fact it was getting close to 7 pm and didn't really want to go looking elsewhere I would have left, and to add insult to injury no salad dressing. In fairness the Schnitzel was very nice.
