Went today for a family lunch of 14 plus ,food was very ordinary considering the amount of kitchen staff floor staff absolutely lovely and friendlybut seafood $28 disgusting the 3 prawns were dripping of water and had no taste ,these three meals were left basically untouchedthe chicken snitzys and pork belly cooked perfectly but the steak was left as friend said it was tuff and burnt on one side we are not stuckup and we're a group from all walks of life but as I said before your staff were wonderful I also think when over $500 spent on meals to be told if I wanted some bread and butter plates to put cake on that asking a $1 plate was ridiculous
Ordered a medium rare steak it was well done and little bit burnt on underside. Menu says rare roast beef salad. meat was tough. Hot chips had a weird taste to them maybe because of the charcoal taste in my mouth. Ordered the beer tasting player and it was such a task to remove the glasses from the paddle and ended up wasting beer due to spilage..i think the paddles are swollen from being washed.
Been here before and had Good experience the ball was dropped this time did not enjoy.
Food was terrible. I had the tempura seafood special. It sounded very inviting. After messing up my order I got shark and crumbed calamari very disappointing. I complained to Gilllian the Pubs Duty MGR tonighther response was “I will pass that onto the kitchen” complacent Cessnock service. Hunter Valley tourism and those who Holiday here deserve better.
Nice atmosphere and wode selection o boutique beers. Very enjoyable family friendly venue.
Had lunch at the bistro which had nice flavour. Jamaican chicken is a must try. Not a beer drinker, but the staff at the brewery know their stuff about beer and it's notes. Good value
Hand crafted beer brewed on site was roughly 11 different types to try $3 per 200ml sample glass and can be ordered by a paddle of 4 (comes with a small bowl of bar nuts) good beer and location
Recently visited for family lunch. Food portions are large and good value for money. Food is nice but nothing outstanding. Large venue and great for the kids to run around outside. Nice little brewery attached which has different beers on to the main bar so make sure you check it out. Will defiantly return.
Myself and three friends decided to stop by for a meal at Potters Brewery.
I've never tried raw bacon before, until it was served on my "Seattle chicken sandwich".
I once made bruschetta in year 3 food tech class under broad supervision in a public school with limited resources that tasted and looked better than the one i got served with.
All meals were served in 3 minutes aka in and out of the microwave.
Considering we spent $130 between 4 of us I expected better service/meals.
Never again.
About the pub
I've tried the coconut beer which was alright. Tasted like wheat beer with a coconut hint.
The reason why I'm giving 2 stars is because I had the worst lasagna of my life.
It didn't even looked like a lasagna!
The meal was ready in 3 minutes. Just enough time to put it straight from the fridge to the microwave while the fries were being re-fried and the salad was ready with the dressing two days ago. I could not finish my plate.
I can't review the accommodation but if you're just driving past and want to try a different beer, I still recommend to check out this place.
Very nice little place to stay at overnight. Open area, very quiet. The food in the bistro is very good and reasonably priced. The atmosphere is rustic. Rooms are well resourced with all the mod cons one could want and the water pressure in the shower was excellent. My only downer was that the bed was a little too much on the firm side and the pillows were not supportive. I would recommend bringing along your own travel mattress topper and pillow if you have one.
