I arrived Monday 5pm to get some fish and chips and the general store was closed though Google mentioned it was open to 7pm (maybe that was the Tavern only).
I went around to the side to the Tavern instead for dinner feeling a bit unsure and hesitant, as I walked in I was greeted by Beth the friendly waitress. It automatically put me at ease as she was welcoming and happy to answer all the question I had.

Read moreWe stopped at the tavern for a meal after returning on the 6:00pm ferry from Kangaroo Island. The place was packed and we found out that they were short of staff which didn't auger well for being fed within a reasonable time. However, we couldn't have got it more wrong thanks to Mel, the super woman. She made sure we were looked after, despite the fact that she was being rushed off her feet. Sure, we had to wait a little while, but not all that long, all things being equal. And when Mel brought out the meals they were all delicious - the Panang curry, the mini seafood and the chicken schnitty. Well done Mel, and the Cape Jervis team - we think you're all...
