I went in on a Sunday for lunch and the Angus Beef Burger is $21. This is a very tasty burger, just simple with lettuce, tomato, a slice of cheese and a nice juicy beef patty. One of the best burgers I have had for awhile. They also got a very tasty Fried Chicken Burger $21.

Other tasty items on the menu include salt and pepper squid, Chicken breast parmigiana, garlic chilli prawn pasta, Portuguese chicken burger, Crispy skin Atlantic salmon,  16 hour slow roasted lamb shoulder or the 350g Rib eye steak.

I recently visited in January 2022 and had their tasty Chicken Schnitzel which costs $20. This is a decent feed, with a large chicken breast schnitzel and a large serve of chips. You get a selection of 2 side dishes and a choice of sauce. I had the chips and salad with a pepper sauce which comes in a bowl on the side.
