Wow what a gem of a find in Fairlie! I don’t normally leave reviews online but this place was that good and the new owners a delight!
Thank you for an absolutely delicious hearty meal cooked to perfection in a warm, inviting homestead full of character! The rib eye fillet amazing, roast pork belly, potatoes and crackling was another level, seafood chowder full of yummy fresh seafood and that pavlova (mmm moreish berry compote!) and ice cream sundaes got a big thumbs up from the kids! (And big ones)
Friendly relaxed outstanding service and personal attention from the new owners Bruce and his chef wife Carla. Thank you also to your other lovely lady staff who was also clearly passionate about food and people! The very best of luck to you all on continued success! We will definitely be back and highly recommend you to others!
