It was lovely today to be out in the courtyard to enjoy this yummy spread. The meat platter was delicious and cooked to perfection. The brisket literally melted in your mouth. Service was good. Even though we were out in the courtyard and were the only ones there, the staff member attending to us was attentive and we never had to wonder where they were when we needed something. That's ace in my books. Will definitely come here again.

Great atmosphere with lovely interior, lighting, and a cozy fireplace. We tried the beef brisket, smoked eggplant falafel sandwich, potato salad, and chili bean fries. While the vibe was nice, the food was average for the price, and mains didn’t come with sides. Unfortunately, I wouldn’t return for the food—better value at any average pubs.

My wife and I dined here on Tuesday night, and being visitors to Melbourne we thought it was well worth the walk out of town. The place wasn’t full but there were enough people dining & at the bar to give it a buzz & atmosphere. The smells of smoked foods were everywhere 👍🏻 We had a sharing platter with smoked sausage, brisket, chicken & pulled pork with two sides and we could hardly finish it. We can heartily recommend the food here. We didn’t have a drink at the bar but it seemed lively enough. All-in-all, a good evening 👍🏻

Loved it as soon as I walked in! A Creole/New Orleans inspired pub that definitely delivers on food! We ordered a couple small menu items to share - all very tasty! Crab and prawn cakes are a must. Service was impeccable and food came out in a timely manner. The drinks were made to order - none of that pre-batched cocktails here. We had hurricanes that went down a treat and bar staff catered for allergies. They also offer a bottomless brunch here with cocktails and a sandwich/burger of choice. We will definitely be coming back to do this!

Fantastic smoked meats, salads and sides that changes seasonally. Always the sign of someone clever in the kitchen. Staff are great, so affordable it makes most pubs look like complete amateurs, this is a must if you like good old fashioned service in a grand old pub. Just go and visit....... dare ya😉
