Went on a busy night and food was served quite quickly and at the same time for our group of 14. Pizza was average.

We met some family members here for dinner over the weekend. The food was great, the venue was lovely, and they had parmi on the menu, and 2 ciders on tap, which kept hubby happy!! Service was a little slow, but they seemed quite busy, so understandable. We will definitely return when we are back in Gero.

Tidy pub with dining section. Nice layout and some of the tables have an unusual tiled finish which was different. Staff were extremely helpful and friendly. The food was good value and quite tasty plus arrived fairly quickly. Highly recommend.

Sunday roast for $15, plenty of meat, needs better vegetables and more gravy. Always a favorite hangout. Staff need more management support.

Old persons pub. This is not a place to go watch sports Pros. Service is excellent Nice and quiet Plenty of room Food is decent Has a kids menu Cons. Cleanliness is obscene. Pool table needs a face lift and all the cues need replacing Roof is ugly af Seating it very outdated and uncomfortable Outdoor seating kinda sucks Not many on tap beers Outside needs a coat of paint Men's toilet near the lounge bar smells bad or urine Female toilet near the lounge are filthy photo attached

Not the best place to go for cocktails or use toilets. The ladies toilets were a disgrace, had limited ingredients for cocktails and the staff were not very knowledgeable about making cocktails. We love Google! There is a nice outdoor balcony type place to enjoy sea breeze.

Nice venue but awful food and service. $26 for the worst pizza I've ever had. May as well been labelled cheesy bread on the menu. How do you get pizza wrong! Definitely won't be back.

Need to sanitise your tables and chairs properly before people just walk in and sit down. Clearing tables took a long time after patrons left. The sign that tells you to "Wait to be seated" is towards a door that is not currently used and there are no signs at the walk in door... The meals were good but took a while to get all 6 out to us..

Lovely tavern. We were staying a few days in Geraldton so decided to visit. Nice menu lots to choose from. We had a few shares which were nice. Was very busy which gave it a nice atmosphere.

Location and atmosphere are good throughout the day with friendly staff. An extensive cocktail range with more options than most restaurants/bars in the area. The food though leaves something to be desired, quite bland and lacklustre, mainly considering the price.

Kids chicken nuggets were amazing! Also the squid was very good. But the porkbelly bites were terrible, no crackle on top, meat was non existent. And it tasted and felt like it had been microwaved. Other than that staff were all very friendly.

I don’t normally review food, but this place was terrible. No service, even need to go get your own cutlery. Food was slow and my garlic prawns were undercooked and the rice was clearly old & dry. Menu is far too big to be producing quality. Prices were high considering the quality of food. Go elsewhere!

I’d leave a review if I even had a chance to visit. During booking my cousins birthday dinner (of 50-70 people) not only was the phone operator extremely rude for the entirety of the call, but when going through details and questions about booking the Armstrong room ,she sighs doesn’t answer and hangs up. We’ll be booking elsewhere

Food was great. Just didn't like the sour service lady that I politely asked to wipe down the table. Apparently the previous patrons had just left before I occupied the table, but I was as polite and thankful as I could be.

Food was amazing, great serving size. Only thing was the aircon just didn't keep up with the heat wave and crowd.

Fast and friendly service. The chicken parmigiana could have done with more flavour. Their seafood linguine was delicious. Average priced meals.

Enjoyed my meal, nicely cooked. The young at meal order till was missing, another friendly woman, said it is not her position and find the respective person, who was on the woke side. We order drinks with our meals, but did not tell us that drinks had to collected further along the bar. Gave us a number, and went back to table. The first nice lady came and served our meal. We asked about our drinks, and she told us, they had to be picked up at the. They sitting there. The ordering girl failed to tell us that.

Do not order online. First attempt was missing items from our order. Second time waited over 3 hours, once again missing veggies. With two calls in between, telling us our order was on the way, only to call 1.5 hours later asking where it was to be to told it was on its way when it wasn't was horrible. Order came and surprise, surprise it was someone else's order. They came back picked up wrong order and waited another hour for correct order. Third time same situation. Waited over a year and thought will give them another go, would rather support local businesses than not. Once again missing items from our order. The biggest slap in the cheek, ordered Bruschetta at $16 advertised as two pieces. I received one tiny piece from the end of bread & a couple of cherry tomatoes with fetta in a container. Staff and management couldn't care less. Have ordered from other local businesses and will continue to do so as standards are so much higher. It's no wonder the venue is always so empty with managements level of standards.

Chilli mussels were sickeningly sweet. I had to pick a lot of the hairy bits out too. I would give the dish 4/10. It got very hard to eat by the end and 2 bits of bread were stale.

All four members of my dining party enjoyed their meals. Great pub food in large portions, can’t ask for much more. The daily specials are a winner as well. $15 for a huge bowl of pasta on a Thursday 👌🏻
