The Grove Golden Grove Tavern

Absolutely fabulous night ... I had 60 friends ... paid corkage for the wines still cheaper than buying over the counter The food I ordered was fantastic ... they worked out how much of each dish I'd need ... it was more than enough and the price was so good

Good pub meal, the mains are huge. Love that there is a playground for the kids to play and entertain themselves. A massive TV outside, we kept catching the screen for the footy scores. The salad/ veg bar was nice, fresh and hot. The menu was a little bit disappointing for the weekends thou but otherwise really clean, easy parking, and easy access.

The venue is nice and clean and reasonably well presented. The staff are helpful and friendly. The meals are in line with what most hotels serve and nothing extraordinary. The cost on the other hand is rather dear for what you get and how it is presented. The only real gripe that I had was the cost and for what I ordered was expensive compared to other hotels and restaurants. I felt the food service was based on a business model rather than a customer satisfaction model. I was not encouraged to return at this point in time.

It is a lovely pub with great decor and (now enclosed) outdoor area. However, it seems that you pay for the renovation in the meals and the drink prices. We go here regularly, especially when the monthly wine tastings were on and you received a $5 discount on your meal, but I don't think we will hurry back. The staff are great and the cocktail specials are good value. The cocktail list is comprehensive and caters to all.

We were very impressed when we celebrated a birthday lunch on Easter Saturday. The staff we very attentive, provided balloons for the tables, and colouring books for small children. All positive comments regarding the food from the guests.
