That live singer really nailed the Sunday feel, and Paula and Chris have made the place feel special. The lunch itself is the best around, with amazing quality for the price. Fantastic experience, thank you.

We only popped in for a beer, so I can't say anything about the food. The Sunday lunch sounds generous and all-inclusive, though. The owners were lovely, and it was nice to sit by the warm stove. We'll be back!

We've returned a few times and we're still big fans. The atmosphere is great, and the owners are so friendly. The Sunday lamb roast was fantastic, and the Pavlova was to die for. We'll definitely be back again.

Chris and Paula make you feel so welcome. We had a delicious Sunday lunch in this lovely old pub. There aren't many little places like it left. Highly recommend.

We loved the service with a smile. I didn't get the young waitress's name, but she was great. The Buddha Bowl and excellent chips were highlights, and the portions were large with plenty of drinks to choose from. The food, service and atmosphere were all great, even though we felt like the only non-locals. We found the place during a long walking holiday. It's a bit out of the way, but well worth visiting if you get the chance. The chips were the best we'd had in the area.
