What Levi Pagac doesn't like about The Carrington:
It's a pub, it has a good steak special, an Australian only wine list dominated by south Australia, it sells a bowl of salted nuts for $7 and $11 for its cheapest wine by the glass so is unsurprisngly overpriced. Its disappointing that the menu isn't more dynamic and exciting, and that the wine list isn't more extensive and broader. View all feedback. What Brooks Reichert likes about The Carrington:
Excellent returned local pub with gold grub, small but good choice of beers and wines, and some really interesting spirits, e.g. Islay Botanist gin. Had really nice special fish curry, full of chunky fish bits, good steak and nice, moist chicken. View all feedback.

The Carrington, formerly known as The Carrington Hotel, is a popular pub that offers a good steak special along with a wine list featuring Australian wines from South Australia. While the prices may be a bit on the higher side, the diverse selection of beers, wines, and spirits make up for it. The pub is known for being dog-friendly and even offers special meals for our furry friends. While some reviews mention disappointing experiences with the food options and service, others rave about the quality and affordability of the dishes. Overall, The Carrington provides a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere, making it a great spot to enjoy a meal with friends, both human and canine.
