What Allie Brekke likes about Publishers Hotel:
Neat cosy and classy restaurant at the back of the pub. Fair price with tasty food. We had a waiter who was a bit dismissive and didn't look like he was happy serving but then a waitress took over and she was the real opposite, very attentive and kept checking to see if we're ok. I'd definitely go again. View all feedback. What Jennings Graham doesn't like about Publishers Hotel:
We went for dancing and there really wasn't allot of space also basically no cover from the hot sunny weather as for some reason, even in the middle of summer they have their dance floor outside and basically completely exposed. The food and drinks I saw some customers with looked nice probably a decent pub, just don't rate the dancing commodities very highly. View all feedback.

Awesome pub, had great food here tonight, cool vibe, friendly service. Beef eye fillet cooked nicely. Good selection of beers on tap . Heading back soon!

The Publisher Hotel offers a mixed bag of reviews from its patrons. Some feel that the dancing area lacks space and shelter from the weather, while others find the service slow and underwhelming. However, there are glowing reviews as well, with high praise for the food, service, and atmosphere. The restaurant is described as neat, cosy, and classy, with attentive staff and delicious meals. One reviewer raved about their Mother's Day experience, praising the quality of the food and service. Another customer had a fantastic birthday dinner with live jazz music in the background. The renovation of the building is also commended, with positive comments on the beer selection, wine list, and sophisticated setting. Overall, the Publisher Hotel seems to offer a variety of experiences for its guests, with potential for both disappointment and delightful surprises.
