    Food was generous and really nice. We had Parmigiana and Calamari meals. Had some nice wine too. Girls need to up knowledge of what is wine / reds whites etc, and what beers they have but otherwise lovely team.

    Very poor quality food. Overpriced for the quality.
    Star of the West HotelResponded on 19 May 2024
    Hi Anonymous Appreciate you taking the time to rate your visit. Makes it very hard for us to endeavour to improve our product without feedback, and the price may have been reflective of the public holiday surcharge too. Sorry we didn't meet your expectation on this occasion. Cheers Star

    The same pub fair, trying hard but not quite there with quality. My Schnitzel was tough and the gravy was like water, no flavour. The chips were cold, we didn’t wait long so I am thinking that a lot of items are pre cooked and just reheated. We didn’t say anything at the venue as it was busy with families and where we were sitting was where everyone lined up to order so our table was blocked in. It is a shame because our other visits here have been good.

    Hi Shar Thanks for the feedback; and we are sorry we didn't quite meet your expectations on this occasion. It was really busy throughout the Easter period when you visited but that is to be expected, so the lineup would have been longer at times we will use the feedback you have provided to try and improve the experience for the future. Cheers Star

    Meal was delicious as always. Seemed quiet for a Friday night with no live music in the bar.
    Star of the West HotelResponded on 19 March 2024
    Hi Anonymous Thanks for taking the time to rate your recent dining experience. There was only music on the Saturday night that weekend, as you caught us just before the upcoming PF Folk Festival weekend; during which we had a 4 day music extravaganza. Glad you enjoyed the meals again though! Thanks Star

    Good value, big meals. Fishermen’s plate more than enough to share, as was the tomahawk steak.

    Poor service again. Lady that's working there treats people horribly. Probably won't go back now that the star is open again

    My husband ordered the schnitzel which he said was quite dry and over salted. I had calamari which was very nice and tender. Good selection of drinks. Staff were friendly and meals came quickly ( we were in at 6.30)

    Everything good except drink prices a bit steep. $55 for a bottle of bubbles that is $18 in uncle Dans.

    Hi Vic Thanks for the feedback and review. Glad you enjoyed the food. As for uncle Dans, he doesn't have to cook you dinner or do the dishes :) Thanks Star

    Food was terrible. Chicken parmigiana was dry beef schnitzel was extremely over cooked. Kids pasta came out wrong then waited for correct order to come out. Adult meals came way before kids meals and had to ask where the garlic bread was. Will not be coming back this has gone down hill from previous years.
