Had lunch today and everything was perfect. We both ordered fish...I had the flathead, hubby had the barramundi. Both were perfectly cooked, the chips had just the right amount of crunch and the accompanying salads were fresh and tasty. The place is hopping, with multiple dining areas to choose from all of which seem clean and nicely-appointed. This is not fine dining...its comfy food with a family atmosphere and friendly obliging staff. We only waited 20 minutes for our meals on a Saturday at lunchtime. I'd say that's pretty good. As someone else suggested...the ordering is a little confusing, but it works and it's no big deal to have food and drinks separate. There's also a smoke house and a micro brewery, neither of which we tried. Next time!!!

The Lounge Bar was the perfect setting for our school reunion in winter, with its leather lounges, open fire and table seating. The staff were really excellent; Tegan, Sam, and Nathan took great care of us. The food was great, huge servings. Thank you for a successful night, we will be back!

Nice pub meals indeed, 45 minutes for mains to arrive, staff wonderful, opening doors and great with kids. Great big sporting screens in the bistro.

Get the vibe they're a bit understaffed, toilets needing attention + . Would be back for the service and quality meals.

Would give zero for the rudest bar staff (woman) that Ive ever had serving me.
As soon as I entered she was cold and abrupt. Sorry for interrupting your busy afternoon of serving one other customer.

Went there for a few beers, but got attitude when asked about happy hour timings and beer prices. Paid over the advertised happy hour price as well.
One beer and I'm out. Would have stayed for a while, but not now or ever. Shame, as it looked like a nice place for a quiet ale on a Wednesday afternoon.

I'm not sure why the negative reviews as today, nervously, we had lunch - and it was great! We had steaks and hamburgers and it was all delicious. Wait time was fine. Dis have a couple (two) of house flys buzzing around but that can happen anywhere. I'm not sure if it was just a quiet day but really the only thing missing was a bit more atmosphere (room with the fire would have been the place to sit in hindsight) and a bit of coordination around food and drink ordering - not sure why they have to be done at separate stations. Otherwise - great!

Chicken Schnitzel is perfectly cooked. Could say the best I've ever had. I read a couple of reviews saying the chicken schnitzel was cooked well. This was so spot on that I'm doing what I almost never do and leaving a review. I hope whoever cooked it knows their skill. Many things in life will disappoint you, so it's nice to get excited by something as small as a good schnitty!

Don't listen to these bogus 1 star reviews. This place is full of friendly, helpful and knowledgeable people.

The beer is delicious and the food is great too. The salt and pepper calamari was so tender and delicious, and their beer selection is varied and I didn't have a single bad beer between two separate flights.

Not to mention: there is a full play place for children and a large array of picknick tables with huge umbrellas right next to it. You can even hear music while you sit out there. Truly a fantastic location and a joy all around.

I do not understand the staff. I asked a simple question, like "do you have Australian whiskey?" She was just about to bite my head off. The staff here had no, absolutely no idea how to treat customers. Won't be coming back here despite the beautiful location. To the owner, I totally understand it hard to get and train staff but this business has so much potential and I truly think it's worth more than 3.8 review.

One of the worst pub experiences I have ever had. We were a large group coming to eat and soak up the atmosphere on New Year's Eve.

I ordered the New York cut steak and asked for it to be cooked medium rare. I received my steak close to well done. I am not one to take food back, but considering how tough and over cooked it was, I thought to ask in a nice way.

The waitress took the food to the kitchen and swiftly returned it to me stating the chef will not accept it and says it's cooked medium rare. I was too embarrassed to ask again so suffered through the meal which was god damn awful.

We also had 2 friends who had the Mexicana schnitzel and garlic prawn steak who both were immediately unwell and vomited their meals up.

Additionally, a friend at our table had a small medical emergency and was accompanied by her boyfriend to the bathroom. They were in the bathroom for less than 5 minutes and were approached by the same waitress who insinuated they had been promiscuous. They were incredibly embarrassed and a number of local diners were laughing at them.

I would not recommend this restaurant to my worst enemy. Do yourself a favour and eat anywhere else.

The tables were all filthy. So many flies as a result. The food was nice, but mostly came out cold. The steak we ordered was supposed to be Med/Rare but came Rare. Thai salad was a bit flavourless, but otherwise fresh. We visited on a Wednesday and you guys were pretty understaffed. The wait for drinks the whole time we were there, was a joke.

I was the crying friend on the wine tour, can't emphasise enough that the cob loaf is just garlic bread. It wasn't bad, it just wasn't a cob loaf.
The mighty L
Corn ribs were plain too

Was on a wine tour with my mates and we stopped in to get lunch. Everyone was starving on the bus you could hear the growling of the stomachs for miles. We looked up the menu and saw cobloaf and everyone jumped up in excitement. Come to find out when it's brought to the table it's garlic bread...one of my friends started crying and i had to console her. It was a hard day, the pain didn't fade. Snitty was alright but

Unreliable and Ignored - Double Charge Nightmare!

I had a meal at The Mighty Hunter Valley on July 8. At the end of the meal, they charged me for my bill, fair enough. But the real nightmare began when I saw my bank statement a week later - they charged me AGAIN for the exact same amount ($152.95)! Talk about déjà vu gone wrong!

Feeling concerned and a little annoyed, I immediately reached out to them on July 15, explaining the double charge issue. They assured me they would "investigate" the matter. Well, that was the last time I heard from them!

Since then, I've sent them several emails, but it's like talking to a brick wall. No response, no apology, nothing! It's hard to believe this is how they treat their customers.

I'm not asking for the moon, just a simple acknowledgment and a refund for the duplicate charge. But apparently, that's too much to expect from The Mighty Hunter Valley.

At this point, I'm not only disappointed but also seriously frustrated. I've never experienced such terrible customer service in my life.

If you value your time and money, steer clear of this place. The lack of communication and accountability is simply unacceptable.

Been here twice pick from the menu .

Tried the lamb ribs & pulled pork from smoker section. Extremely disappointing. Fatty , dry , and mac cheese was terrible . Way over priced for what we got pork was tough and sliced. No pictures taken.

But the desserts were fabulous and the staff were friendly . We have had nice meals here before see pictures.

Very Tastless deep-fried corn fritters with a few salad leaves poor value. Small meal.
Lamb ribs fatty & a small meal for the price, few
Salad leaves.
The children nuggets & chips for the grandie were the best meal.
Won't be ever back, sorry.

we love the ability to get away to the Wine country. Bar staff were excellent, food was great, unfortunately food area staff were lacking. After our mains we had to wait more than 30 minutes to catch somene for a dessert menu. They then informed us we had to go back to join a line to order. There were at least 20 people in the line so we gave dessert a miss. I think if you are seated and have enjoyed a meal, you should be entitled to have someone take and bring a dessert order.

Good value daily lunch specials for $15 plus $5 for a wine or brewski. Good vibes with tables inside or outside on the patio. Adjacent to Foghorn Brewery with lots of beer options.

Went in for family dinner. Peri chicken burger - stale bun, bare minimum sauce, chicken over fried with batter falling off, lettuce overload. Tabbouleh salad - the base of the salad should be parsely along with onion tomato and pomegranate. They served rocket and lettuce with raisins and walnuts!!! Falafel - burnt with stale sauce. Only saving grace were the under seasoned fries. Overpriced and horrible !!!

We came here for breakfast and dinner a couple of times and loved every meal. The staff are friendly and attentive, the food was EXCELLENT! Highly recommended for families if you were silly enough to bring the kids along on your wine tasting weekend like us!

We have been going to the Restaurant for the last 3 years as we love the ginger and chilli beer from the brewery so we look forward to incorporating the two.
Unfortunately the menu has changed and we found the food really average, we can get this food at any local pub.
Please bring back the slow cooked pork.

Had lunch here recently, all I can say is great food and great value! The Chef and his staff create tasty and interesting dishes. In the Hunter? visit The Mighty Hunter you won't be disappointed!

What a magnificent Hotel. So much room and so much choice for dinner.
Live music was just fantastic and the place had a great feel. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Joel the Manager looked after us and I can't thank him enough. Such a great experience. Thankyou. We'll be ba back..

Dropped in whilst away for the weekend and absolutely loved it! I had the falafel salad and garlic bread recommended from the friendly bartender. Huge outdoor area and dog friendly which is a win win, we'll be back with the pooch!

Went with a group of friends. It was okay. Two of us are celiacs and had the gluten free cheeseburger. We both described it as okay. Not overly tasty but okay. The rest of our group described the burgers the same way but the chips were good.
Band on tonight was not bad and the drinks were about what you would expect.
Parking and amenities are good and the staff were friendly and helpful.

I really like the atmosphere and decor of this place. We sat on a table on the lawn in the sun and it was great. The beer selection was great too. When we arrived about 130pm, we were told there was no space for walk-ins at the restaurant, luckily I had made a booking that morning. The place didn't even seem that full though. The staff were also up front and said it would be an hour wait for food, which was a bit annoying. Once the food came it was delicious, however my schnitzel could have been bigger for the price. I hope this pub can get some more staff in the kitchen so the meals can come out faster because that is the only missing link I can see at this stage. I hope it improves because I would come here every weekend. Would also like to see some live music or acoustic musicians maybe on weekends to add to the chill atmosphere.

I had dinner on Sat 18/6 with my young disability client. Booking online was extremely easy and the service was fabulous. Our meals arrived very quickly (which was important for my client) and were absolutely delicious. I highly recommend for a great night out.

(only pub review) We loved the atmosphere of the pub and it was a very nice facility. But we all felt a bit let down by the food. Nothing was particularly bad, but nothing was particularly outstanding either. Slightly above average pub food, so you could definitely do worse!

This was a very pleasant place, with their own brewery and some on tap regular brews. Was very quiet as we arrived early for a nice lunch. Pleasant staff who were helpful and monitoring covid refs. I was not too keen on the local Porter type beer I tried.

Spent an evening with my husband, our teenagers and the newly acquired 'adults' - celebrating together. All the staff were amazing. Friendly. Helpful. Knowledgable. I must admit that the name change has kept me away, but, now, I will be back.

The local brewery and watering hole. Great historical buildings. Good pub food. Great for groups. Inside seating at times sometimes too noisy. Outside seating under the umbrellas on the lawn a welcome treat.

Delicious food and beer flight. Loved the ginger and chili! Large outdoor lawn and shade sail over a cubby house for the kids. Outdoor picnic tables with umbrellas or indoor tables. Very quick and responsive service with smiling staff. Great experience for the whole family.

Excellent experience, would definitely recommend. Service and food was amazing, special thanks to Sean for making our night a memorable one. His bubbly personality and welcoming nature will definitely bring us back here again. His recommendations of the lamb shoulder and desserts were to die for. Keep up the good work!

From the man that didn't smile haha 😂😂
