   We enjoyed eating outdoors in the evening with live music and all the trees all lit up made it all just so beautiful. We have never been disappointed with the food and service. Even though officers mess lost their roof recently, they have created a great outdoor area. It’s very versatile so you can either go casual with your fur baby or more smart casual - I highly recommend going.

   The officers mess is the perfect location for a relaxed lunch with family and friends. The pizzas are excellent. We will definitely be returning.

   It was my first visit and I was captivated by the location. The views are just great. The only mild irritation was it was quite windy and even though we were inside it didn't make a lot of difference. However that will not prevent a re-visit as the owners cannot control the weather. Perhaps they could have lowered a couple of the clear plastic blinds but then we could have requested that as well and didn't. The food was very good and well presented. Only 1 staff member was a bit on the off side. As a single in a party of 3 my bill for breakfast was racked up at nearly $60.00. When queried she argued with me as to what she had heard. My friend who was with me at the counter was quite adamant the cashier didn't hear what she said because I simply didn't order what she said I did which was a repeat of my friends order for 2 plus my own single order. A wee bit strange. The other staff were extremely courteous and welcoming considering I arrived about 45 minutes earlier than our booking because I mis-judged the traffic!! Overall a very pleasant way to start the morning and I am already planning to visit with another group in the New Year.

   We were a table of 7 for lunch. Half the meals were served and almost finished before the rest of the table got theirs. I had to go to the counter to let them know. The staff were welcoming and helpful however and meals were tasty.

   Sipping champagne by the river in a relaxing venue, whilst catching up with friends who also have kids, could life (this venue) get any better?

    I recently visited and found the experience to be overpriced for the food, with several additional charges that were not clearly explained. While the location is fantastic and very convenient for families with children, the expensive menu plus the lack of transparency around the costs left me disappointed
