Sussex Inlet Tavern

Food was very reasonably priced but hit and miss. I had a schnitzel burger which was great and hubby had a nice Caesar wrap but a friend had nachos which were burnt and weirdly came with a sweet chilli sauce. Bistro service could have been cheerier especially the cook who loudly said in front of me that the previous patron could have her steak however he cooked it. Despite her asking for rare. Dog friendly outside but the under cover area was reserved for smokers so we had to sit outside in the elements. Not since 1984 did smokers get better treatment except at this place. Was pretty sketchy to look at but the food was ok. Probably wouldn’t rush back.

At first glance it's quite run down and dated. It doesn't have any dark beer. Toilet are acceptably clean. The staff we converse with at the bar and bistro are less then friendly and welcoming. Ordered a surf and turf which was expensive at 46 dollars and was really poor value and quality. I can never get my head around the other reviews saying the foods good when it's not for so many reasons. It's really misleading. I expect so much more from claimed professional chefs and cooks. The T-bone is tiny. The white sauce ridiculously watery. Packet mash?? This is a medium size plate. It's was worth about 30 bucks tops. With this said I have no desire to return here. Rough! Expensive! Underwhelming!

Good food and nice cold beer at an affordable price. Keep your eyes out for "live music" on Saturday nights. Well stocked, drive through bottle shop. Plenty of on site parking. All in the heart of Sussex Inlet.

We visited in November and had a blast. Another reviewer negged on this place because of the locals but it’s precisely why we loved it. Not only was it next door to our motel but there was a band and about a dozen locals hanging out playing pool and talking about their day. That’s the perfect environment of what I want when traveling. Visited in November so hanging outside was perfect.

The land that time forgot. This place was one of the most outdated pubs I've been to in a long time.Food was old school,something from the 70s.Price reflected the meals.My mum could have done better.Locals only vibe, not a place I'd ever go to again. Why go there when the RSL is next door.Rubbish.
