    Although the staff were lovely, the food was awful. Two of the people in my party bought the gnocchi, which was severely undercooked and had absolutely no flavour. The garlic bread we had for the table also seemed to have been sitting out for quite some time. The music level was much too loud for that early in the evening as well.

    An unexpected little treasure - the dining room is on the first floor with lovely and expected views. it is a relatively small dining room with a fire and a lovely ambience. the staff were great! The food was good pub food - tasty, good portions and some of the group tool advantage of the Thursday pasta deal (pasta plus drink for $20). I will be going again!!

    We had our work Christmas lunch on the deck. It was relaxed and casual. Everyone happy with their meal, there were plenty of options. Staff were helpful moving umbrellas to accomodate the blazing sun and a baby.

    In 2016 I was here for a tenth anniversary school-related graduation anniversary party. Five years thereafter, I commemorated the occasion with a nice quiet meal… excellent service, beautiful food, I couldn’t be more satisfied. Thank you greatly! 🥂

    was really looking forward to dining here especially the farm produce. service was quite slow and food whilst well cooked was not packed with flavour. Starters were quite small. Exception was bacon and eggs amuse that was delicious. We didn't stay for dessert as we didn't really enjoy the first 2 courses.
