Our favorite pub. Great bar staff and friendly locals. Generous sized meals and good selection of beers. Especially enjoy Friday night raffles and draws, few beers and the Guiness burger for dinner.

Don't walk past this place!! Great food and friendly staff. Good drink selections also.
The food was tasty and huge portions.
The salads were fresh with a unique chilli balsamic dressing. (Amazing)
Definitely worth trying and we will be back.

It took me a long time before I ventured into the Innkeeper. I'm glad I did. It’s a friendly, popular pub, with honest charm. Everything a good local should be.

The staff are genuinely friendly and welcoming. And best of all it is one of the few pubs, and by 'few' I mean pretty much the only pub I've found which offers a decent pint of Guinness.

Today we popped in for a drink and a bite to eat. I was heading for the Guinness tap when I spotted they had Emerson's Bookbinder on tap. Sweet!

We ordered.
* Sausage, egg and chips w/ coleslaw ($12.00)
* Chicken schnitzel burger w/ brie, pepper and apricot salsa and chips ($15.00)
* Emerson’s Bookbinder ($8.00)
* Lindauer fraise 200ml ($9.00)

First up the portions are huge.

Chicken burger:
The burger bun was the size of a small plate. The burger was tasty with the chicken cooked well. They put loads of brie on it, as well as normal cheese. It also came with an apricot and capsicum salsa, nice and chunky. The chips were seasoned nicely too.

Sausage and chips:
The sausages were huge. I wasn't that hungry which is why I ordered this meal, but it was a feed. Plenty of chips and a good amount of coleslaw. The sausages were processed. Not my preferred kind but they were tasty enough. The eggs were cooked perfectly. The chips were a fraction on the cool side but not an issue. I enjoyed the meal.

The food isn't fancy here, but they are not pretending to be. It's pub food. It's basic, honest and done well. We enjoyed it. Considering a sandwich in the CBD can cost you $12, it's good value.

I am looking forward to going back and trying a steak sometime or one of their pies... and of course some of their Guinness!

A solid 3.5

I CANNOT tell you how good this place is!! Everything is perfect. If you looking for a place that feels like home you've found it. Don't walk, run. I got the steak, it was so amazing 👨‍🍳😘. "Chefs kiss". I have never found a better cooked steak. Just had to buy the chef a drink. Nothing better than a great cooked steak. My husband got a beef and bacon burger, pure bliss. My daughter, as fussy as she is loved her hot dogs and chips.

This is a great little place off the main road that tends to miss out on a lot of foot traffic. It’s quiet so you can talk and hear your mates, the foods great, the Guinness is a great pour and the staff are friendly. Had dinner there on Saturday night, and I’ll be back!

To the owner(s)... You have a very short (apology) lady that works for you. She is always friendly and an absolute shining STAR!

Let's start with the coffee (or mocha for the coffee addicts). Delicious. Perfect temp and perfect taste. The food was heavenly. Crunchy hashbrowns, perfectly poached eggs, and not too crispy bacon - just how I like it. I ordered the $10 breakfast which looked more like an $18 Auckland breakie, and my wife the $15 eggs Benedict. Add two $4 coffees and you've got yourself a cheap breakie that won't break the bank. Thanks team! We'll be back.

Great pub.. Authentic feeling once you enter.. Great staff.. Didn't order much food.. The one thing management need to do is.. Turn up the cooling into your keg room.. Tap beers were no where near to cold.. Please.. Look into it..
