Excellent food and great service in the cool ambience of Little Malop Street. We have eaten here on a number of occasions over the years and the quality is always there. Highly recommended.

Placed order shortly after we arrived. Our drinks were served promptly and we ordered our main course but declined to have dessert. Our meal arrived within 15 minutes. We booked in at 6 pm and were able to leave before 7 pm for our 7.30 pm show. Service was great.

Nice and relaxed atmosphere, service was good and the food was enjoyable. Took 30 minutes for the mains to arrive after our entree but it was a Saturday night. Overall we were very happy with our experience.

There was a comedy night scheduled so our seating had changed but staff were very accommodating. Great chats with the owner and staff. Our steak was cooked to perfection. Nice beer on tap. Great night out

Lovely place to enjoy a meal and play trivia. Great for the kids to have space to run around. Food was good and reasonably priced. Mozzies got a bit much towards the end of the evening so will bring repellent next time.
