This stalwart pub changed hands some months ago. It used to be a reliable country pub where you could get a value for money country sized meal and take the little ones as it was child friendly with an outdoor and indoor play area.
We booked for 5.30 as our littlest has to be tucked on by seven, and were the first there. Friendly greeting from some new faces behind the bar and led to our table. Good so far. It's one of those pubs where you order and pay at the bar so we got our orders in quickly and settled in.
The kidlets meals came out quickly, a good serve of nuggets and chips which they got stuck into. There were six adults and we ordered a variety from the menu, including a chicken Parma, a rib eye steak, salt and pepper calamari, seafood laksa and salmon fillet. The calamari doesn't look pretty but the doc said it was tasty and tender. My laksa was ok but lacked something. The rib eye, ordered medium rare came out more medium well, the Parma declared good but the salmon was pronounced inedible due to over salting. To their credit one of the wait staff, a lady who looked like she was in charge took it back and replaced it with another dish which was ok.
We didn't stay for dessert due to time constraints. Oh and the outdoor play area still there but the indoor one - gonski!
Would we go back? Lets wait and see what happens, early days but they definitely need to tweak this place. read more
