It's big, got everything - Coles/ Woollies, Booze, Fish, Chicken Man, Meat Guy, Kmart and J&B HiFi - we hate it, but we're glad its only 1 km away! Parking can drive you mad - walk or take the bikes!

Drinks & Nightlife

It's OK - bit of a beer barn, average food for the money - courtyard can be cool in winter (no sun late pm) and gets really busy.

OK its a step back in time - but the foods actually good (Italian home cooked) , its quiet, friendly and you'll feel like a local (....in 1975). One of the few owner operated pubs around untouched by gentrification! There's a pool table in the back and jukebox that does a nice line in hairspray rock anthems...Rock out! A retro gem.
