Due to the grand and sunny exterior, I have long been interested in drinking at this establishment. Last year I got the chance to spend a few hours here, and savour the atmosphere. Well, the atmosphere was okay, although the facilities and décor seemed a little rough around the edges inside. I had trouble getting a phone signal (I am with Optus), though eventually I found a sweet spot sitting out in one of the wings. It was the middle of the afternoon, and I was exhausted from a long walk along the beach. I got a schooner of VB, and a packet of cheese and onion chips for $9.20. There were a number of patrons eating at the Olive Tree bistro, although I didn't try anything here (items included toasted damper, for $7.50). Monday night is apparently steak night ($12 for a steak.) I think they might do schnitzels on Tuesday night. Wednesday night is seafood night and attracts lots of locals. On a later visit, I ordered red lamb curry for $19.50 which was okay, nothing special though.

Approximate cost: $20
