Terrible service, food was served cold, tables were left uncleared and dirty. Management of booking was unsatisfactory. Second time in three visits we’ve had issues with our booking. New menu provide poor variety and poor quality. Last time we’ll visit.

S**t service

Terrible food. All three of our meals were poor. Two of us had steak sandwiches which arrived after a 40 minute wait and were stone cold and tough. They had obviously been sitting around. One salmon tasted stale and unappetising. We visit regularly and have run out of food options with the exception of the humble burger. It is a great venue for a drink and they have a weekly beer special otherwise it would be rated a one.

Poor

Just returned home after an earlier dinner for four.  Great service at the bar ordering drinks and food. When the food arrived though 3 of the 4 meals were stone cold. Literally stone cold. 

No one checked back with us, and we didn't have time to complain or return the meals unfortunately. Based on the reviews here it doesn't appear that they would be interested in feedback anyway.

Very disappointing. Won't be bothering again.

Disappointing Food

I want to say our visit on Thursday night was FANTASTIC the food was exceptional and we were very surprised how short of a wait we had to get our meals for how busy it was. We couldn’t fault the food at all the prawn and chilli pasta was the surprise for me usually when you order a dish like this you get a couple of prawns and not much chilli flavour well not this time at least 6+ prawns and it had a kick to it without being overpowering. 

I want to thank the chefs and compliment them on a fabulous feed. Also I want to make mention of your duty manager Bert he was awesome so accommodating friendly and very helpful also the young lady that was serving at the bar where we order the food also I didn’t catch her name but she always had a smile and was lovely. 

We will be back again very soon thankyou so much. We love the forest it’s a two bus journey for us to get there where we only have to walk across the road to the sands but it’s well worth it. 

Thanks again. 

Peter and family.

Fantastic experience

Standard pub style menu. Burgers, pizza, fish and chips. Lots of veggie salads and the obligatory children’s best sellers. The menu also includes several upscale steak and fish mains together with chef specials. Average pricing and average quality. It’s a pub!

Service is good and quick.

A brand new pub with very traditional offerings.

They've done a great job renovating this hotel. Both the outside and inside spaces are inviting. Three of us had drinks and shared wings and calamari and both were fresh and tasty. One had the lamb shanks and there were two meaty shanks on mash with a gravy and he assured us they were beautiful. We'll be back!

Great

My first time to the not so long ago refurbished/rebuilt hotel. I was one of a group of 11.
Venue was bright and breezy, staff were well presented and extremely helpful. All meals that were had by our group were delivered promptly and were delicious. I had the lamb shanks (yes you do get two) and they, along with the fresh vegetables, were superb. One other person had the shanks and had to take some home although the venue is not allowed to supply take away containers, so take your own.
Selection of beers and wines was extensive. Ordering by scanning the QR code on the table was a novel idea but unfortunately there is a very small but still annoying surcharge for doing this. I don't know if there is a surcharge if ordering in person. I will probably order in person next time anyway to maintain the venues need to employ staff. I definitely will be going again some time.

First time to new venue. Great stuff

Just back from an evening here as part of a large group. The refurb is fantastic and the menu looked good, if over priced. The group highly recommended the salmon, barramundi and burgers but the $19 superfood salad was a joke. Small serve, strange ingredients (grapes 🤷‍♀️) and completely over priced. Kids nuggets were ok but the fries weren’t cooked properly so all in all disappointing.

Kids loved the outdoor area and good wine selection so hopefully we do go back.

Family friendly but over priced 

Tried the new Forest Hotel for dinner Feb 24th. 
Overpriced poor quality food. 
 The $26 steak with slaw and mash potato  steak chewy fatty, the slaw was dry/stale (im sure it's just the prepacked bag from supermarket) the mash was so-so and the pepper sauce very watery-my partner actually hardly ate any of his dinner, 2nd person on our table had same complaints about the steak. The $22 Chicken snitzel W/panko crumbs pretty average,mushroom sauce watery again it's just a packet gravy. The burger my dad said was very dry. 
 For the overall quality of the food I would expect their prices to be lower. it's a new place I know there would be teething problems and that's understandable but then don't charge higher prices until you have the food up to scratch. 
The drinks are also on the higher price side a Jim Beam and coke in small glass with a plain glass of coke $13.80. 
 They need to change something the food or the prices before I'll go back or anyone at my table.

Family Dinner review

We had dinner Friday night and were pleasantly surprised. 
We had heard very mixed reports so we knew we had to find out for ourselves.
Firstly, the refurb looks good - especially the terrace area which has a great atmosphere. The staff were friendly and helpful and went out of their way to ensure we were comfortable. 
The food is good, basic pub food. Large portions and each meal was tasty. Not too expensive and you can get a decent bottle of wine for $30.
