    From the outside looks like a run-of-the-mill pub however the interior of the dining area was spacious and done up nicely decor wise. Plenty of light. Food was excellent.

    Service was no great and having to pay 13.5% service charge did not equal the level of service. Our order was taken without the waiter writing it down. He forgot our starters so we had to remind him and then he forgot our chips for our main course. The chips didn’t arrive until we were nearly finished eating. The foccacia was below average but the steak for the main course was very tasty.

    The food was delicious. I thoroughly enjoyed my perfectly cooked, crispy crackle pork belly. My husband said his pasta was delicious. The only minor issue was that the service was a bit slow, staff were standing around chatting not waiting on customers.

    First time eating here and it was absolutely lovely taking my Dad here for Dinner while staying down in Hepburn Springs for the weekend. I will be telling my friends and family about this place as the Building heritage architectural was beautiful.

    Streak was outstanding. The best steak we have had in years. The barramundi special was dry and overcooked and the butter bean mash not palatable. Outstanding service. I should have returned the fish to give them an opportunity to rectify. My bad.
