Nice place to visit, has a lot of character and a relaxing feel to it. Alfresco area is awesome. Service was friendly although we did have to wait a long time to get our food. The staff there kept checking on us though and asking if we needed more drinks while we waited. We got though a couple of bottles of their finest red wines (yum) and enjoyed a share taste plate (Queens plate) and some extra sides everything was YUM! and plenty for two. The Buffalo cauliflower is to die for. The polenta chips are incredible. I’m considering writing a song about the home made sausage rolls. Will definitely be back.
Ordered crispy pork belly, brisket gnocchi, fish and chips and katsu chicken sandwich. Pork belly was lovely, crispy and fatty, the bok choy and sweet potato mash were good accompaniments. Katsu chicken burger was a crispy, juicy breaded chicken breast with slaw and bulldog sauce on thick sliced buttered bread with well-cooked beer battered chips. Fish and chips had the same beer battered chips with 3 portions of beer battered fish. Had a bone in one piece but was fresh with a light batter. Brisket gnocchi was a bit of a small portion but rich tasting with tender pulled brisket. Was about $25+ for each main. <br/ <br/ Nice place to come to on a weeknight. Not too loud, and friendly, non-intrusive service.
This pub has great food and the staff are helpful but the bad rating comes for 2 reasons. One is that it so noisy that we were screaming to speak to each other. Some acoustic measures would be a great investment. Second reason is that it's not much fun going out for lunch or dinner when you have to go and order every drink and meal yourself at the bar. Takes the eating out part out. Apart from that the experience was great.
Queens chicken salad was all noodles which was disappointing as this is always been our go to dish. No table service unless you order from the QR code and the bar staff were taking drink, orders and food orders. We had a late lunch and the music/DJ made it difficult to hear each other.
