"What a great place to spend a Sunday afternoon. Would highly recommend the Sunday roast, the venison pie was amazing also. The wait staff were attentive and friendly … didn’t have to wait for a drink!!"
"Amazing food; each dish was fantastic especially the fish and chips. So crispy and not oily at all. Great options for kids meals too. Should also get the scallops entree dish. Really enjoyed this pub and we can't wait to come back to try the Sunday roast option. Nice and busy on a Friday evening but did not feel overwhelming in the separate dining space."
"Best sunday roast in Melbourne!!! I booked the table online, we got the window seat at the back. Really appreciate it! The staffs are friendly and helpful with the drinks suggestion. I had a pint of milk stout, fall in love with the creamy beer head! It was a lamb rump roast, the lamb is perfectly cooked matching with vegetables, Yorkshire pudding and light gravy. Definitely coming back for the Sunday roasted and craft beer again!"
