the duke

what agreatfeed and the atmosphere wasgreatservice was empicable will be back again. there is nothing i would say was wrong the my visit

went to the duke a couple of sundays ago. ordered the roast pork, order was taken then waiter returned 5 mins later to say they've run out of pork and only have beef available so opted for the beef. so the roast comes out, looks good, well presented. but it stops there, the "roast" beef was heated on the char grill which obviously gave a charred flavor and there was a piece of rare rump steak on the bottom to obviously bulk up the small portion of roast beef they had left. rump steak was over aged in cryovac so gave a very aged taste and smell. ordered squid for entree which wasgreatas always. seen they've been advertising for chefs recently on seek so will give them another chance in a month or so when they settle in.

went here for lunch on a saturday and i wasn't disappointed.greatfood, beer and service. i had the salmon special and wow it was yummy! would definitely come back!

*update*
i’ve been to this place many times now and it is now one of my favourite pubs to go for lunch and dinner! the menu has improved greatly as has the quality of food, i love the lamb shanks and fish and chips, also have agreatcocktail menu. the staff are always awesome, my parents love this place so get taken her for many family lunch outings.

love the look and feel of this pub, outdoor area is much bigger than i thought! i came here for lunch with my parents after some of their friends recommend it. my mum and i both ordered the pulled beef tacos and a bowl of wedges to share, and my dad ordered a pie which came with mash and mushy peas. the tacos were okay, but nothing to rave about. i enjoyed the pulled beef but there was definitely not enough flavour, they need to add some kind of salsa. sadly the wedges were a huge let down. the first few i ate tasted fine but then i realised the majority of them were a bit burnt. i felt it was too late to ask for a replacement as i had already eaten some. my dad enjoyed the pie and mash, and was impressed as the portion was huge!! his only complaint was the peas had mint in them which he doesn't like, but he still ate them anyway. after i'd finished eating i ordered a mocha which was really good! the staff were very friendly and came over a few times to offer drinks and ask if everything was okay. i will definitely be coming back to give this place another chance, as i think they will improve.
