Glenmore Tavern

After five hours on the road, we stopped for a quick lunch and to stretch our legs. We spent 10 minutes waiting to be served at the restaurant and bar, and the food wasn’t great. The fish was dry, the dumplings were deep fried and the whole thing looked unappetising. I hate leaving negative feedback, but we’d have been better off at Red Rooster next door.

Good food and a decent place to stop on a long drive. Best to come in from the back if you don’t want to walk through the public bar and pokies.

There are lots of shops within walking distance, including Domino’s, a kebab shop, café, Macca’s, Dan Murphy’s, Priceline, Subway and a newsagency. The pub is decent, though a bit expensive compared with other places. Parking can be awkward. Other tenants often take the car spaces, and parking in front of someone else’s room feels uncomfortable.

Dinner at the tavern last night was disappointing. The steak was cold and came out so quickly it seemed like it might have been cooked earlier and left aside. The prawn topper was dry and not nice, and the salad had just a quarter piece of tomato. Sorry, I wouldn’t rate it.
