We (2) enjoyed a great lunch a few Wednesdays ago and I must say it was the best butter chicken I have tasted. They offer lunch specials of $10 or $15 which represents great value. We opted for the $15 and it was more than enough for 3. The rest of the food was great also. No complaints here and will happily repeat the experience.

Approximate cost: $15

What a great pub. The food was very good with plenty of choices. The day we went we also had a choice of 2 specials, lamb shank or chicken. They do have seniors discount but only for groups which is a shame. You can buy one decent bottle of wine for $22 but the rest was expensive. It is in the middle of nowhere, but worth it at least once or twice.

Approximate cost: $22

This is difficult as the food was excellent but the prices over the top. 2 Lamb skewers with a dollop of yoghurt $18. A glass of wine $9+. A bottle of wine you can buy for $22, over $100. The decor was very nice but come on guys, the location! If you are a fine food diner and have deep pockets, ignore the view of the carpark, you will enjoy, but for everyone else, sorry cannot afford it.

Absolutely fabulous views and old world charm however the coffee was served luke-warm, price ok. The Bistro prices were over the top. 4 of us ordered a Ploughmans lunch and frankly it was pretty ordinary. The cold meats you could buy at any deli, one pickled onion, 2 stuffed olives, 2 lettuce leaves, a small amount of chuchtney and pate (pretty sure not made there), some slices of melon and a few strawberries and NO CHEESE! Pretty ordinary with lots of bread for $21.90.

Approximate cost: $35 +

We all enjoyed the good food, better than most establishments of this kind. An extensive menu. Friendly staff with good service. They also have a choice of 5 dishes @ $12 for seniors. Will go again.

Have been a member for over 10 years and went with family last Saturday to celebrate a 91st birthday at lunch. Asked when ordering meals how many could get meals on my members card and was told no worries, all of you. Fantastic, a bit cheaper. However when I went with my grand daughter to order deserts and coffees and left her to complete the transaction. My members card was thrown back on the counter and it took over 1/2hour to get our order. The location is fab, the food has improved and most staff are friendly. Everyone commented on the stingy side salad with one small sliver of cucumber, tomato and 1 small square of feta. Definitely room for improvement.

Approximate cost: $20

Beautiful setting with friendly staff. We shared two entrees that were good however the main course was ordinary but the salad was great. Some in our group waited over 2 hours for their meals even entrees. The wine tasting was disappointing and stingy. Would I buy their wines? NO! Also the price for a bottle was about $10 more to drink there than take home. We didn't understand that. In spite of that we enjoyed the day, but hey check it out for yourselves.

Approximate cost: $21

Ok it is not a wow, but no complaints. Lots of choices for $10 not just one or two like some places. Out on the deck with water views makes a very pleasant venue for a cheap lunch and where else can you get a decent glass of wine from a bottle for $4.

Approximate cost: $10

Enjoyed a great meal Sunday and show by Greg and Laura Doolan at lunchtime. The food was very good, the staff friendly and the show and music was most enjoyable with plenty of laughs. Happy to recommend.

Banquet menu, olives, meatballs, chicken tenders (yuk), small salad, etc and mostly pizzas. They have sessions so when finished you move on. Overpriced for what it was. Long tables for about 25, so not available to converse. Drinks expensive.

Approximate cost: $32
