On Sunday we stopped at the Black Spur in for lunch on the way home from the country. We were very surprised by the pretty and classy bistro. We were greeted by a friendly young man who asked if we would like a table. After answering yes, we expected to be seated but instead he vanished. Finally we were seated, and the children were given a colouring sheet / children's menu. I was disappointed however that we were not offered a high chair for my 10 month old.
The menu was surprisingly extensive, however very expensive. There was very little that we could order for lunch under $25. The children's menu however was fantastic menu, and better that average food.
I ordered a bowl of chips for $6 which were tasty, but tiny. Other's on the table ordered Brusheta, Chicken Parma, and Garlic Prawns (They were cheaper items).
Of all of the guests no one complained about the taste of the food, but after speaking $100 between 4 adults and 3 kids, we all left hungry.
I would recommend this restaurant for an evening meal, but definitely not a stop in pub lunch.

Approximate cost: $30pp

We have stopped here before for a nice rest stop and a drink, however today we decided to order some food. At first we were seated inside (by a very unpleasant & cranky Blonde woman not giving out smiles today-the other servers were pleasant), but being a nice day we moved to outside. We ordered a chicken parma and calamari salad. The parma was the tough and dry with cold, soggy chips-worst I have ever had, sad when a pub does a bad parma! The order of a main calamari has 4 small rubbery bits of calamari on an okay salad- definatly not value for money at $20.00, more an entree size portion. Although we found the food terrible, on a previous visit we just had a few drinks, and it was lovely. So my advice would be to enjoy the stop as it is nice but don't bother with the food.

Approximate cost: $15-40

I thoroughly agree! Food was disgusting and I bet that cranky blonde woman was the managers wife.

I complained about my Meal on valentines day when I was staying there and it was taken away and not replaced and they still attempted to charge me for it and also accused me of lying about the steak being overdone. By far my worst dining experience ever!
