What people say
The reno work is excellent! Unfortunately inside the old wee-wee carpet still has the same smell. Be sure to book in advance! This time the Ceasar salad was drowning in sauce that didn't taste like Ceasar salad dressing, far too pink. Recommend reserving a table especially on weekends. Great chicken schnitzel with an itty bitty tiny salad 😆 and great extra crispy chips. Steak sandwich was excellent 👌 We really enjoyed our meals today. 🐟 and chips. 2 really cold 🍻 The staff were super friendly and when not sure what 🍺 to order, gave us a taste 👍 🍹 Looked good. Views are great of the little harbour. Lovely spot for a slow lunch. Parking 🅿️ in the back. 🍾 Shop attached so take one home 🏠. Accessible by bus, right out the front. Enjoy.
Had dinner with friends out on the new deck, 5pm Sunday afternoon. The deck is fantastic, but couldnt have a conversation as the " background" music from the dj was way too loud. Its a perfect deck to chill and catch up with friends, and enjoy a meal, watch the ocean etc, but impossible with rock music blaring through the speakers, especially so early. Kills the vibe
We were booked on the deck which wasn't finished. No call to say we would be inside. The food was beautiful but we couldn't talk for the sound if the drill right out our table. The two for one offer had finished because the deck should have been finished which it wasn't. Spoke the manager who said the offer had finished because it had come from management. I'm quite sure something could have been done. Nothing else was offered, not even after speaking to manager. Very poor response
Probably just recommending drinks here. Service was great at the bar. They have an app that you join to be a member and drinks are discounted. Unsure if it’s all worth it and you save much. There was a difference in food prices for members and non members but still usual pricing and not really getting significant savings as the non members price is already quite high. The fish n chips is $30 for non members and $27 for members. We got a schnitty and fish n chips. They weren’t anything to write home about. There weren’t many chips served on either dish. I didn’t think the dish was worth $27. The wait for our food was normal. The menu has plenty of options. Good usual pub atmosphere and has a pool table room. Also a new deck is being renovated and looks like it will be a great place to enjoy a drink.
Located at 2 Addison Street, Shellharbour, New South Wales, Australia 🇦🇺 I had a lovely time here, I had the Peri Peri Chicken Skewers for $28 (Members Price) and I thought it was delicious 😋. My friend though had a chicken schnitzel and he didn’t like it, no taste and very tough he said. The hotel itself is designed very nicely, creating a welcoming atmosphere. The view from the balcony over the water is stunning. The prices are pretty average for a hotel/pub. Parking 🅿️ facilities are very good, plenty of parking. The staff are very friendly and welcoming. I would recommend with no hesitation based on my personal experience. Thumbs up! 👍👍👍
