What a terrible establishment. I was racially vilified by a male staff member. He was terrible as were the other staff. They didn’t care they just stood around and and did nothing. The place is dirty and the staff are nasty individuals.

We did not enjoy our date night here. We came here after our initial reservation at another venue got cancelled on short notice and after being turned away at another 3 places this was our last option before calling it quits and getting fast food. We arrived around 7.30pm, I called before we arrived to make sure the kitchen was still open which it was until 8.30pm thankfully. Upon arrival we waited around for a good 5 minutes before an employee emerged. The place only had 2 tables occupied. I must say the lady that assisted us was very nice throughout our whole stay, she was probably the best part about our visit. We ordered 2 medium rare steaks one with mash and gravy and one with garlic prawns and chips , cheeseburger springrolls and a beer for $115. The springrolls were super delicious and arrived soonishafter ordering. To be honest we waited longer than expected for our main course considering at this point there was only one other person in the dining hall. I think we waited around 25 mins. Finally the food came but there quickly was another issue. Both mine and my partners steak was literally raw. Not even rare, nowhere near medium rare just plain raw in the middle with only a sear on the outside. We could not eat it at all. We always order our steaks medium rare but this was the most undercooked we had ever received, my partners steak was also cold in the middle. We asked the lady if the kitchen could cook it a bit more and she took our meals away. When she came back the kitchen had actually also refilled our mash/chips and our sauces in addition to cooking it more. We really appreciated that a lot and were grateful for that. The steak now was much better and we dug in as we were starving at this point. My Gravy was delicious but I think the portion of mash was tiny, it was like half the size of the amount of chips that my partner had. Steak wasnt bad but tasted mostly like charcoal. By the time we actually ate it was 8.30pm already. We intended to get desert after but kitchen was already closed by now obviously. While eating I actually noticed pieces of PLASTIC in my mouth that was in the mash. I thought no way, maybe it was a potato skin but no it was an actual piece of plastic, I thoroughly inspected it. After we finished we ended up taking our empty plates up to the bar and I wanted to point out the plastic that I found, but the 2 employees were too involved in a conversation with each other and did not notice us standing there so we just left. Our night was honestly ruined. We haven't had a date night in a long time and in the end we thoroughly regretted coming here and wasting over $100. We even got some maccas on the way home because we were still left hungry after our Highway experience. We will not return.

The Greek Lamb salad that I ordered from here was very yummy and the size of the meal was okay. I would recommend this meal if someone asked me which meal I'd choose from the menu. I would go back here again for a meal

The food we had was delicious my husband and son had a Parma each and I had the salmon, the only thing that let it down was the coleslaw that looked like it was at least 3 days old. So unappetizing couldn't even try it it looked awful.

On Friday the 10th of November my husband and his friend was at the high way having few beers. They both didn’t know they were cut off the beer. Both Decided to have a dinner and beer before going home. Comes to my surprise they are not allowed to have beers with their dinner. I have never experienced the most ruthless inexperienced manager working in the high ways she is so rude don’t know how to look after her customers. My own understanding it’s is her job to look after her guests. She even bar one of the boy because he was sick and par the other guy that doesn’t know he was cut off the drink. She says she’s the manager well I think the staff in the high way has got more experience than her she should not work in any venues at all She got no heart to let the 2 man have their dinner with their last beer and go home. This manager should go back to school and learn how to look after all guest in the venue very sad and stupid. She is disgrace to a human race

It was extremely bad food, We ordered Sunday roast, roast beef was no taste and chewy, most likely was not fresh roasted the day, it was hopeless food, never coming back again.

It's a nice place, good atmosphere. Half of the games in the Arcade didn't work. Ordered a cheeseburger with chips, was very tasty. They also have pokies machines at the front. The staff were friendly.

held a function here in the Ahern bar, booking the room was a easy with amazing service and communication from the booking staff, on the day the room was amazing and clean, staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating, the food platters we ordered tasted amazing and was definitely a lot more food then what we expected, i would highly recommend this place for any function

Had to wait a ridiculous amount of time to get the worst tandoori pizza I've ever tasted. Burnt crust and no tandoori flavour at all. The worst think was that the pizza was frozen before being served. I guess you get what you pay for. Never again. The food here is constantly bad.

Good place for the kids to run around. The food is not too bad. The Parma was nice but chicken a bit tough and breading on the bottom was completely missing. Very amateur. Chips are delicious and crispy however.

A quick business meeting / lunch on a Friday. The place was surprisingly quiet considering the $20 lunch option however it is out of the way from many businesses. The food was ok and the service was friendly. If you are after a quick bite of lunch and a smiley face to serve you - pop in when travelling down the Princess Hwy.
