Great food, and well priced. Option for a table at the bar or slightly little more formal, and sit down in the restaurant. Also has outdoor seating for the warmer months or for the Brave. There were no tables at the restaurant when we arrived, but we were able to grab one by the bar with the same menu on offer. Massive selection of beers on tap. Price per person $20–30 Food: 5 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 5 Recommended dishes Sticky Toffee Pudding

Lunchtime visit, large beers selection from the pump. The member of staff who served us initially wasn’t the most pleasant, maybe she needed an injection of kiwi friendliness! The other staff were excellent. We choose 3 snack items to share, lots! Price per person $30–40 Food: 4 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 3

Came in on a Tuesday about 130pm for lunch. Place was empty and the staff weren’t particularly friendly. Food was excellent though so they definitely have that going for them. Price per person $20–30 Food: 5 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 3

We dined here on Tuesday night, with my partner. It's a funky space, the staff were super friendly and very accommodating to my partner's coeliac requirements. Really enjoyed the meal! Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Sports on the TV. Some local beers on tap. My wife rated the chicken burger as the best she's ever had. Steak burger was good too. Great view out the front. Pretty good spot to spend a lunch, or an afternoon. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Nice restaurant but felt let down about the food. Hubby had chicken parmigiana which was over cooked - to be fair he had the option of having it replaced but didn’t take it and I had the pork belly which was a bit dry and no crackling -swamped in marinade. My roast potatoes - lots of them were good and steamed vege mediocre. The food came out quickly and waitress staff were friendly and efficient. Price per person $40–50 Food: 2 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 4

Firstly, we waited 43 minutes from time of order until we got food. My meal came out cold and the veg on it was actually freezing. When I said it to the waiter, she whipped it off my table and said "I doubt its freezing". I asked her to come back with my food and she stormed off with it and wouldnt respond to me.I went to the bar then to ask for the manager and the girl told me that the waiter who took my food was the manager. 5 minutes later they send over a bar man with my food. I never once seen that manager again for the night. She hid in the kitchen. The table beside us also had to ask where their food was after over an hour. Shambles of a place that probably could run well with a decent manager that has a bit of manners. One good aspect was that the waitress who took our was really nice and couldn't have been more helpful. Food: 1 Service: 1 Atmosphere: 2

Service was great from waiters. We had burgers and they were terrible. The beef burger was a pre cooked patty that tasted and looked like it had been bought from a second hand supermarket. The chicken burger was tougher than nails and dryer than a desert after a sandstorm. Food: 1 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 3

I had a lovely time, very lively full of bubbly staff who were very attentive. I had the BEST steak there that I have eaten in a long time. The staff worked well under pressure and the food came out fast. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
