Westernport Hotel Hastings, Hastings VIC

Our family had lunch here last Saturday and we had the fresh seafood platter that came with a bottle of wine. Everything was fresh. We had oysters, king prawns, bay mussels , calamari and salad. Plus a separate bowl of chips. We could not fault anything. Everything was delicious including the wine. Plus we could not fault the service.

Tried this pub locally as I was staying up this way for a weekend away. Was very delicious food, staff were very friendly and helpful, cold water at table on arrival which I really liked, and food came quickly once ordered.

The food is priced a bit higher than what I'd expect to pay where I'm from, probably due to being close to the beach etc. albeit, pricier, it was worth it for the taste alone. The steak sandwich and garlic bread was really good well cooked and was delicious.

Reason for 3 star is that one of the crane machines in the games room took some money but didn't let us play, complained to staff abs didn't get a refund but told them about the faulty machine.

The provided tea and coffee station in the gambling area was also dirty, not clean, not refilled with any sugar and had no clean utensils. It was a bit off putting.

Other than that for a once off meal on a weekend away glad we tried it but would expect better next time.

Food is reasonable but pricey. Cocktails are pretty well priced & well made.
NOT CHILD FRIENDLY: Kids area is just a dark room with skill tester machines - all $1-$2 so if you have toddlers or young children it's pointless. I also feel as though it's just a kids version of the pokies down the hall...
OK for adult dining but don't bother for a family.

Deteriorated quite a bit since my last visit, which was some time ago. Staff didn't seem friendly, which was an appreciated given on previous visits, and food was just ok. I ordered the seniors surf and turf with vegies, It arrived and all was on the cool side. Steak was not tender and nor were the prawns . Hope this is a one off as I like this venue for dining.

Great venue, very spacious. The staff were all super friendly and helpful. Pretty quick service and a good range of options on the menu.
Good value, the Parma was massive.
