This pub makes a great pizza! There's a terrific selection to chose from and also a great standard menu. I've been here a few times and had the steaks which are very good but this was the first time I'd tried their pizzas. The staff are all very friendly and their name tags have the town / country where they... More

Bit like hog's Breath but Mexican. We had cocktails in happy hour and then marguerites. Food was plentiful, cheerfully served and good value. Great for families.

We were told by some friends to check out the pizza here - was great and I'm not usually a pizza lover. Rest of food is just pub style food nothing overly special, slightly pricey.

This is one of the best places in Airlie Beach to have a sit-down meal for me. Be sure to try some of their signature wood-fire pizzas as they are delicious! The atmosphere feels like a casual pub with pokie machines in the back room. At first I was somewhat confused that you had to order at the counter, however... More

Great food and drink, not so keen on the pokie atmosphere. Great woodfired pizzas, and good selection of wines

On arrival we waited a good 5-7 mins before someone approached us to seat us! We're a bit confused about the ordering style canteen style I like to put it . Food was exceptionally good though I do recommend one of the pizzas but be prepared they are a little pricey but I suppose worth it in the end. The... More

Went here for the wood fired pizza. Food was good and service was friendly. The problem is the mix of restaurant and a horse racing bar. The difference in the clientele is a little uncomfortable as it does not lend itself to all. Still, the pizza was tasty and we would return. At least it is backpacker free due to... More
