Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews

Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.

When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.

Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Excellent Pub

July 2020 • none

What a great pub, fairly local to us but never considered going earlier. There is something for everyone with extensive menu suiting all tastes and budgets. It was a birthday celebration for us. We had the Greek Platter and Seafood Plate for one. Other were outstanding quality, fresh, tasty and well presented. At $40 plus a plate it was certainly at the upper end of the scale for a pub meal but worth it. Other food coming out looked great. Plenty of staff who were polite and attentive. Only complaint was the heating didn't kick in until half way through the meal, however our booking was an early lunch. We'll defiantly be back and could recommend this pub highly enough. Can't wait to try the Beer Garden when the weather warms up a little.

Busy little noisy & OK

Jan 2020 • family

Tried a local pub near us, staff were fantastic very friendly. Bar staff very good waitresses niice. Look food was ok little disappointed with the caesar salad prawns added but were not grilled. Duck spring rolls were nice. Calamari was ok along with the battered flathead tails. Would have given 2 star but the service was great.

Handles groups

July 2023 • friends

Thursday and Friday lunches can be busy, but they can handle a crowd with grace. There are $20 lunchtime specials, plus the fancier items. Drinks are reasonably priced. The staff brought water to the table, but we had to go to the counter to order. The customers tended to be groups of retired people and families with young children, who were a bit noisy in the play room. Our food was mostly acceptable, although a couple did complain that their food had cooled between the kitchen and the table.

Threaten with a $6.50 birthday cakage charge

Jan 2024 • family

Our recent visit to this pub was marred by an extremely rude and aggressive manager who informed us that we were unable to eat a birthday cake I had made and brought along for my fathers birthday. And if she would allow us to eat the cake she would have to charge us $6.50 cakeage per person. Which would have amounted to over $100 for our group size. Which is astronomical as normally cakage cost could be $1.50 per person. Given we would have spent north of $1000 for food and drinks at their venue it was so sad that he were told we cannot eat a home made cake at their venue. This is merely an additional blatant cash grab so you buy their very expensive cakes. I would not recommend this venue. 1 star! We had to eat the birthday cake at a local park! :-(

Great lunch

Sept 2021 • friends

Really lovely to be able to have lunch with a friend. The duck spring rolls , Greek lamb salad , fish and chips and New York Cheesecake were all excellent. We appreciated the friendly and efficient service and the use of Covid Safe practices.

Worst experience! Called at

Dec 2020 • none

Worst experience! Called at 11.20am and spoke to a guy to book a table outdoors at 5.30pm. Confirmed the day and time, took my name and phone number. Arrived at 5.15pm only to be told they are closing and that it wasn’t possible to have made a booking. Did a phone redial from my call history and the phone rang at the bar. Guy guy at the bar was rude. Greeted me by saying ‘last drink for the day’! Was a regular here but no longer. Plenty of pubs around the area who value their customers, especially these days.

Nice Country Pub

Dec 2020 • none

The nice beer on tap made this a pretty decent place. It's still basically a railway pub, which means that it really isn't all that fancy. I wouldn't get off the train here for a beer though, since the trains don't go past all that often, even if they stop.

Local Hotel

Oct 2019 • none

On all our visits over the past 14 years - we have found this Local Hotel to have good atmosphere with friendly staff. The food & service is great. They also on occasions have special day/night functions with great sounding bands. Wide ride of selection on menus. In winter there is always a welcoming open fire to keep you cosy too. This places caters for all singles / casual / family & friends. Good play area for kids.

Family Celebration

Aug 2019 • family

The food here is expensive for a pub however is very good. The staff are excellent. The kids playroom & lazy parents destroy what would otherwise be a great place to eat. We've eaten here twice now but never again. It is both painful to listen to kids scream at the top of their voice and spend money for the privilege... Never again.

Great pork roast

May 2019 • friends

Being Mothers’ day this place was packed and we were lucky to get a table here for Sunday lunch. Excellent food - all of our party ordered the pork belly roast and it was delicious. Nice atmosphere and good service. I would like to come back when it a little less crowded but it’s still 5 stars from me.
