    Good choices and nice ambiance. Noise level a bit high but then it was full booked so that cannot be helped.

    I’m a frequent diner at The Old England. My lunch today was pretty ordinary. I ordered the grilled barramundi. The skin was soggy and it was served with a strange side of an equally soggy corn salad and guacamole. My friend had the chicken parmigiana. She didn’t say much but I could tell by her facial expression that the meat with the river if sauce and cheese was less than appealing. Overall I was not very happy. This is probably the first time that I’ve written a less than satisfactory review. I often wonder if the chef/s sample their creations before they put them in the menu.

    We have been coming here for years as the food is excellent. Had the barramundi yesterday and it was the most delicate that I’ve ever had, perfectly cooked. Unfortunately, the bruschetta is no longer value for money. It used to be 3 pieces about a year ago, reduced to 2 since then and now you basically get 1 and 1/2 so it is not a dish for sharing any longer. Wine selection is great and cocktails are amazing with a special cocktail usually available. Lastly, make sure you book early on days they have special themes running otherwise you too could be seated in the hallway!

    My spouse and I celebrated Valentines Day by savouring the Prawn Festival at The Old England Hotel. The food was delicious and cooked to perfection.
