Great atmosphere and good pub food. We go for the quiz on a Wednesday night (not for the faint hearted) and absolutely love it! Great night out and if you order before 7 to do the quiz, you get a great discount on your meal!

It's a beautiful little restaurant, which serves up delicious comfort food from Southern America. The hospitality from the staff was on point. I went there on a Drag Trivia Night, and the place was absolutely packed out. The food was served up quickly, and everything came out perfectly. Their only fault was that they made our order twice and tried to give us all a second helping of our order, but thats definitely not a complaint, the meal was so incredible, I would have gladly accepted it. My friend and I had a great night there. I will definitely be going back. I would love to travel my way around the menu and eventually try everything. Maybe I will see you (the person reading my review) there on the next Drag Trivia Night.

Honestly the best chips I have ever had. 10/10 service all round. The girl at the bar explained to me the different types of alcohol and all the cup sizes and stuff. Great vibe with the music, people and decor. Was a bit crowded but that's okay.

The steak is fantastic and the beer selection is great. The service is always remarkable. Outdoor seating and indoor seating are both cool, mood lighting and the vibe is good for a casual dinner with friends as well as a romantic dinner for two. Can't wait to go back.

The chicken wings... grilled flavoured, there is a bit of “char” flavour but not sure if it is charcoal or open flame. I keep coming back just for the wings. Great vibes too!

Amazing place, highly recommended. Ordered chicken wings that were full of flavours and blue cheese dip was amazing, ordered chicken tenders too completely fresh and served hot the honey mustard dip made it even better. For the main we ordered chicken parky and it was just out of this world Amazing service, asked the staff on Facebook if any meat was halal and was told chicken was. Asked the staff Instore if there was any chances of contamination and they confirmed no.

This has to be one of the best bar & food spots in Newstead. We had a work lunch gig with a dozen people, every dish was a winner and all served up in well under 10 minutes. No wonder the place is full on a Sunday afternoon!
