    Good vibes, great old building, wait staff were attentive and friendly. My meal was tiny though, miniscule - I had the barramundi ($34), I swear it had been cut in half. It was quite embarrassing when it arrived, as my dining companions each had sizeable meals. We all sat there a little unsure whether to say something, but in the Aussie way ended up not making a fuss (just going home dissatisfied). To the manager/chef - that's a really awkward situation to impose on your customers. People go to a pub expecting pub grub. Even if it's fancy pub grub, I don't want to be served up something that looks like a sample plate. Footnote: it tasted good. Really good. I just wish I'd had more bites available to enjoy.

    Delicious food, well executed and a solid variety. Lovely staff. It was a hot day so the dining room was extremely warm, making it rather uncomfortable for guests.

    Gr8 venue, fantastic old pub, friendly staff and nice relaxed crowd. Service was sparce. Had to keep getting waiter to come over to take orders. But we got there in the end. Polite and friendly waiter. Food in general was tasty but my lamb rack was lacking in size. Felt hungry still after meal. 2 small lamb 'cutlets' wasnt enough. Desserts were yum and pork cutlet and black eyed peas very nice. Barramunda worth ordering. Few more staff a bit more food on plate and u have a 5 star rating.
