Everything was brilliant- the service was absolutely first rate, the food was delicious, my request for coleslaw rather than chips was happily agreed to (the coleslaw was delicious) and the music was not too loud for us deaf oldies.

The slaw with my schnitzel had an insane amount of horseradish in it, making virtually inedible Waiter forgot our chips then after reminding them they finally came, asked for ketchup and they again forgot the ketchup Aside from that food and vibe were good, would still go back but avoid the slaw

I had a wonderful lunch with my grandson who turned 18. I was going to contact you about hiring the courtyard when “ i fall out of the tree”. How much does it cost to hire the courtyard for a wake and what do you serve. We saw some sliders going out. How much did the wake cost for Tuesday’s event in courtyard.

Service was super friendly for such a busy night. The steaks & chips special quality has dropped off significantly in the last couple of years. Steak are small, full of gristle and very chewy. Chips were cold and undercooked. Would be happy to pay an extra $5 if they could improve quality of food.

Started with a cheese platter from dessert menu, and went to barramundi main, then to chocolate pudding. Cheese board was a perfect starter for the two of us and a good price. Dried pear to complement cheeses was lovely. Barramundi was delicious though the base of prawn pieces, small tomatoes and peas was a little confused (?) Fish itself was nice and would have shone as a dish with on a simple bed of cress or similar. Chocolate pudding perfect. Raspberry sorbet a wonderful complement to it.
