What User doesn't like about The Cricketers Arms:
I had the pan fried barramundi for lunch. I think it was a left over from the day before and reheated in the oven for me. I couldn't cut right through it to get a decent mouthful. I had to scrape away at the dried-out flesh and left the hard base of the skin of the fish on my plate. I was a dreadful meal. View all feedback. What User likes about The Cricketers Arms:
There was a family group of 16 or so celebrating a birthday. The restaurant was nicely appointed and roomy enough for such a big table. I find it hard to judge a restaurant when they have a large group but everyone seemed to like their meals. I had linguini with chicken bacon, mushrooms and cream and it was tasty. My wife had barramundi which she rated. Others had snitties that looked good. Will definitely return. View all feedback.
