"Had lunch there today, family of 10, excellent service, fast, efficient and welcoming. A great seafood menu and also catering for children and people like me with allergies. Great presentation of each dish and great prices. Whilst everyone was eating seafood I was in food heaven with the risotto of mushroom, spinach, pumpkin and cheese, so creamy and absolutely delicious flavour. We will definitely be back, even though we live on Yorke Peninsula. Best meal I have had in years."

"Went with friends on the first week of reopening and we were very pleasantly supplied. It was early in the evening and quite quiet however over the next 90 minutes things warmed up very quickly on the patrons front. Perusing the menu there were plenty of choices but not too many and the choices we made were spot on. The fish n chips 10/10, burger 10/10, creamy garlic prawns 9/10 and bbq schnitzel 10/10. Thoroughly enjoyed our meals and service was spot on. Will definitely be back and tell friends and family."

"I love American burgers which most Australian venues cannot do, despite their own delusional self belief and advertising. This place does an amazing bacon BBQ burger. Proper US heart attack quality. And the chips, my god, superb! Music is great and the staff are fantastic, playful and friendly."

"I ate here years ago under previous owners, who managed to ruin a birthday my mismanaging everything. The new owners seem to be doing the right things - steak I had was pretty darned good, people friendly. Would suggest minor tweaks with salt in the pan sauce, but honestly? Non issue."

"The staff were amazing especially with my young grandchildren and brought out a box of lego for them to play with. They were also given a box of crayons with a puzzle book. The senior's meals were full size portions and the food was excellent. I will definitely be returning regularly. Good value meals with great service."

"Great pub, the service here is awesome. Staff are friendly and accommodating. The food is also very good. Our group ate here a handful of times during our recent stay. The pub was busy for the 5 days we were in Port Adelaide for may have been alot busier than normal but the British and staff held thier own."
