WHAT FOLKS ARE SAYIN’
It can become quite crowded.
We usually arrive a bit early to avoid the rush.
I love the atmosphere, I love the community of people that frequent the place. It’s a really nice family/local vibe.
There are weekly events that keep things entertaining. I do trivia every Tuesday and the prizes are great.
The food is excellent for the money and the kids love the feed as well.
I may be biased because I live within walking distance of this place but its such a good pub.
Plus it’s close to Woolworths as well if you need to pick up bread on the way back from a cheeky arvo beer.
