      Step back in time - but not far enough

      Food was fine, honest pub food, large portions well prepared & cooked. Atmosphere is dull - if you're expecting an old English pub you'll be disappointed. They could do so much more with the location and heritage, look elsewhere for your Hobart experience.

      Thank Ralf M
