I can't say that I have been all that impressed with this place. There seems to be really only two sections, and that is the pokies room and a restaurant, though there is a bar facing the street. Well, they do have some nice couches, and an outdoor area out the back, as well as seating along the road (and a smoker's cage) however compared to the other offering that Heidleburg has, I have never found this place all that much too my liking. To be honest, the service has never been all that bad, and the interior is a nice place to sit down for a casual drink, but there simply isn't anything that is really all that attractive at the place. It is certainly not a place I would go out of my way to visit, even if I am passing through Heidleberg, especially since there is a much better pub just around the corner.
Ate here at the bistro on a very busy Friday night with a large group and was surprisingly impressed with my meal of Vietnamese Prawns and Rockling, even if I didn't think it really tasted Vietnamese, the flavours were still quite nice. However it's interesting that their website has a different (cheaper) price for this meal compared to their actual menu in the bistro! The complimentary bread rolls that came out were really yummy - warm crusty and delicious, and they even brought out more out when asked. There is something on the menu for everyone and the atmosphere is nice and casual.
Have your function here!! The finger food is delicious and the function room itself is A1! Highly recommended. If I had to complain about something, it would have to be that it can be tricky to park the car (but hey is this such a biggy?)
The staff were a lot of fun too!! Thanks for a great 30th! :)
