Always good food, well worth a visit. They have a steak night on Wednesday nights, plus their full menu. My son had the steak, the garlic butter was delicious. Only down side of the night was my son's sticky date pudding. It was over heated and nearly broke my teeth, didn't stop him though.

Just had the best squid salad (entree) added salad. The sauce makes it. Will be back for more.

5 of us went to lunch. 3 burgers and 2 snapper. The snapper was actually processed fish and definitely not snapper! Chicken burgers were ok, severely over cooked so the chicken was tough. Beef burger was ok.

Service...1 person for the entire dining room so not served in a timely manner.

Will we go back? Probably not sorry.

Had lunch at the Barooga Pub and it was one of the best experiences. Food was on time and very fresh, large portions, good value for money. Very friendly staff and good ambience.

Took my parents there for lunch. Every meal was delicious. Until I found a hair when I had 2 bites to go. Brought it to their attention but nothing was done. He informed me that it wasn't his..????

Our family of 4 had dinner here the other night. Immaculate service. The steaks were cooked to perfection, the sauces were beautiful. The lamb platter was also to die for. Definitely worth the trip. Highly recommend

AWFUL! The young lady with the accent taking our order was rude and looked like she just couldnt be bothered. Nobody could answer any questions in regards to allergies. The food was over priced and cooked terribly, steaks that were meant to be medium rare were way over cooked and chicken parma was burnt and dry and needed to be cut with a steak knife. TRUST ME dont bother with this place GO TO COBRAM HOTEL!!! The chefs there are brilliant and answered ALL my questions and can actually cook!! The food was amazing and it was cheaper! I will never go back to Barooga pub.

First time visitor to the hotel. We had a table of 6 for dinner and everything about the hotel was what we expected. The atmosphere, ambiance, decor and settings were all done nicely and inviting.
There's an nice big beer garden out the back.
The staff were all 5 star.

Unfortunately the meals let the hotel down.

2 meals in 2 nights, great service and the food was great, had the pork belly stir-fry and then the steak which was delicious. Friends were happy with their meals except they said the slaw was not necessary.

WOW! What an experience, unfortunately not a great one.
If it weren't for the wait staff being lovely and presenting excellent customer service, this would have been a 1-star review.

We visited the Barooga Hotel on the 27th of December. It was an incredibly busy night, and realistically we should have been told this when we called to get a table, 30 minutes before we arrived. The wait staff were non-stop busy but maintained an excellent level of calm and great customer service.

The wait time for food was well over an hour, which we accepted when we ordered. The bar staff seemed new, but we were patient and understanding that experienced staff can be hard to find at the moment

For the entree we ordered salt and pepper calamari. This came out in fairly good time. Although it was exceptionally salty, the calamari was cooked well.

Our mains was where our night turned sour. My partner ordered a medium-rare T-Bone Steak and I ordered the risotto. When my partner cut into his steak in multiple places (edges and centre) it was clear the steak was much closer to well-done than medium-rare. We called over one of the lovely wait staff, and showed her the centre. She went off to speak to the kitchen, and then the next thing we knew, the owner came out.

To be clear, we were in no way looking for an argument, nor were we in any way aggressive in the way we had approached staff. We were quite understanding the place was busy but we just wanted what we had paid around $40 (public holiday surcharge).

The owner came to our table, at first, we assumed he was the chef as he made no indication as to who he was. He was immediately aggressive and confrontational, exclaiming that they had served over 400 meals that night and everyone was exceptionally busy and basically saying we should just deal with it. After my partner calmly explained he just wanted what he requested and paid for, the owner then went on to exclaim that the kitchen was now shut, and he could either take it as is or take a refund. We opted for a refund.

The owner then stormed away with the meal and one of the wait staff processed our refund. He then returned to the table with the plate to show us that right near the bone was medium-rare, again taking an aggressive tone exclaiming "this is medium-rare". I certainly am not a chef, but when you order a medium-rare steak, you expect the centre of the steak to be medium-rare, not only the meat around the bone. He then further went to exclaim that he didn't want the food so he would package it up and my partner could leave. Meanwhile, I still had my plate of risotto in front of me.

Before leaving, we made sure to show our appreciation to the wait staff who were nothing but lovely and pleasant. I thank them for keeping great customer service and a sense of calm in busy circumstances. It was a trying night, and it really showed their great character.

However, based on the owner's behaviour, we will not be returning, nor will I be recommending this place to my family or friends.

Awesome pub, great and friendly service with a smile and couldn't do more to make dinner a great experience.
Went the Maple Ribs full size and had to take it home with me. Absolutely huge with awesome flavour and tender. Never had ribs like them. Couldn't recommend them more highly. My girl also had the Khao Soi Gai and spectacular and not a baby plate either. Awesome

Food was brilliant.. had the Texas Parmi and was a bit expensive but I couldn't eat it all so worth the money. Other peoples food looks awesome. I had heard good things and was not disappointed. Well worth going to again. Staff were friendly and helpful and didnt wait long for our food. Would have to be one of the best pub meals I've had in the region.

Lovely venue, the pork belly was wonderfully presented and was cooked nicely, generous portions but the chimichurri could've used a bit more vinegar as the fattiness became overpowering. The bed of gnocchi was also a nice accompaniment, just needed a little bit of pickles or something to refresh the palette.

Comprising a number of different dining areas to cater for different occasions including a terrific outdoor area to take advantage of the warm climate that affords the region ??'????'??

Nice food, lovely country ambience! Place can be quite busy on Fridays and over the weekend so you'll have to book your seat in advance. Has got a nice bar restaurant and is kids/ family friendly. Service is quite lovely! Place is very clean and tidy.

Was on a trip last week with mates last week and we felt like a stake for dinner so we head off to the local pub. I wasn't expecting much out of the food but wow i was proven so wrong, all 3 of our stake was cook to perfection and it was delicious.
Thumbs UP Barooga and well done

Had the Thai green curry prawns, sadly it wasnt edible, nothing like a thai curry, tasted like a packet mix satay sauce.
Didn't get to tell them in person as staff didn't even ask "how was your meal?" Just " can I take your plate"
We used to love coming here ?

We used to go this pub quite a lot but since it changed hands we haven't had a chance.
The staff were unfriendly to the point of almost rude. We ordered 'rare' steaks and they were so over done that they were dry and the 'creamy white wine mushroom sauce' was a basic gravy with a couple of mushrooms thrown in! and the chips tasted as though they had been reheated!
All this on a quiet night, with current restrictions they could only have limited numbers.
If I could give no stars, I would. Won't be returning in a hurry!!!
