| I liked this bar but our visit was somewhat ruined by the VERY rude barmaid who poured the wrong drink and didnt want to change it and subsequently threw my change at me - she made me want to take my custom elsewhere :-( Biz - 21 Jul 2008 23:31 |
| Meets a need for some, but total lack of cask beer and Plastic glasses mean it's not for others. ChrissG - 11 Apr 2007 21:38 |
| Typical Walkabout pub which isn't necessarily a bad thing. As usual it has a good range of bottled beers which are always nicely chilled, not much choice in the draft department but a good array of spirits. Barstaff are generally friendly and range between locals with an atipodean attitude and the genuine article. TVs for sport and music videos, nice variety of background music and occasional live bands help with the entertainment factor. Clean, simplistic design which maximises available standing room, but if you can get one of the comfortable seats and a table the food is well worthy of investigation. Some unusual meats(Kangaroo, Springbok,etc.) which are very tasty or more standard steaks, burgers and chicken for the less culinary adventurous. Prices are pretty good and whilst you might not want to spend the entire evening here, dropping by for a few hours for a bite to eat and some nice beers is always an option worthy of consideration.

| Floorboards everywhere,(easily cleaned i suspect),not for the faint hearted of a weekend,but during the week or lunchtime sats & Suns there is no reason why not giving it a chance for an hour or so. glenn468008 - 17 Jun 2005 22:30 |
