Post Office Hotel — Restaurant in New South Wales

Post office hotel

Stopped in here for a country pub meal as the preferred pub for lunch wasn’t open.

A little dubious of the menu we ordered in any case and had beers in the main bar while our food was prepared.

The barman and the patrons were super friendly. A bit of a chat and some banter was very cool. The extra effort to find a preferred beer that wasn’t up front was appreciated.

The meals (no photos taken) were well below standard and suitably priced. Beef burger was best meal it seems. Good rating. The chicken schnitzel (large) wasn’t great. Definitely not large. Weird texture and cooked in old oil. The salad was good. The missus gave me her chips which looked fresh but again bad taste cooked in old oil. Scotch fillet steak. Medium rare. Well this was more like a well done minute steak. Don’t ask if you can’t cook. Nachos. Good quantity but burnt and ordinary tasting.

I finished my schnitty and salad. The burger was also polished off. The rest of the meals were sadly left and wasted.

I wouldn’t return to eat. The cook clearly doesn’t have the experience or passion to provide a simple pub meal. Our low rating is...

My partner ordered a blackfish, the bartender didn’t know what that meant so my partner clarified. He was then asked if he was a Queenslander to which my partner said no. The bartender then asked if he was “retarded” and told him to call it super crisp because blackfish is racist. DISGUSTING customer service. I understand you didn’t know what it meant but in our home town it is quite common to call a super crisp great northern, blackfish. Pull your head in. There is no need to accuse and use words...

A group meet every Fri 6.00ish at PO Hotel. Always a Fri raffle for trays of meat - drawn 7.00PM - some of the group will stay for dinner - food is always good basic pub food and pleasant evening out. Some go weekly, others vary - as does the clientele- pre- Xmas was very busy - particularly with the heatwave we experienced. Well, it's worth a visit and stay for a meal but will be particularly busy this month with the Festival so rethink and try in...
