Good menu, staff friendly. No table service. Price average pub prices, high if compared to other pubs with table service, wouldexpecta bit of saving if I have to do someof the work for them. Meals were all good, most of us were happy with them, not enough prawns and garlic on Garlic Prawn (2 of the main components of the meal 😉). Good flavour on others. Great amount of free parking. A little steep to get to entrance for mobility impaired. Door entrance bit tough if you have wheels.

The young manager is professional beyond his age and very polite and well spoken. The food range while limited was very good quality and very generous portion sizes. The bar staff very friendly and down to earth. Over all for the price I highly recommend this place for good bang for your buck.

Had a great stay here on Saturday night, the Hotel is lovely and cozy sitting near the open fire, drinks were great, food was amazing, the Staff were so lovely and accommodating. The Patrons were very friendly, loved the history of this hotel, gorgeous building. Stayed in rooms upstairs, very clean warm and shower was great powerful water pressure, it is an old building, but well looked after. We Will come back soon to enjoy a night relaxing by the fire watching the footy. :)

this place is a real art deco treasure. the fitout and finish inside and out is superb. the building should be heritage listed. really a great day seeing such a well preserved piece of history.
