The Duporth Tavern - Buderim

This pub has been around since 1911 and has remained in the same location ever since. My parents used to frequent this place and we decided to come here for dinner. The food is typical pub fare and the atmosphere is relaxed and casual. While the surrounding area has changed with the development of the trendy Ocean Street Precinct, the Duporth Tavern remains a favorite among locals. The food was delicious and we enjoyed a pleasant walk along Duporth Avenue to Cornmeal Creek after our meal. It's comforting to see that some things stay the same!

Several weeks ago, we visited a tavern to see if they were showing the AFL Grand Final on their large screen. We were told that they could reserve a table for our group. When we arrived on the day, we were seated at our table and asked the staff to turn on the big screen. We enjoyed a nice lunch and drinks before requesting that the screen be turned on half an hour before the game started. Unfortunately, we were informed that they wouldn't be able to turn it on because it was still daylight outside and the screen wouldn't be visible. We asked to speak to the manager, but were told that they didn't work on weekends. As a result, our group and others left to find somewhere else to watch the game. Additionally, the service at the bar was slow and inefficient, with staff appearing overwhelmed and customers waiting a long time for their drinks.

The pork belly was one of the best dishes we have ever tried. The portions were generous and it was definitely great value for money.

Really subduing. We haven't been here since the renovation. It was bad then. It's still bad. $37 for an eye fillet. Came under done and salad was a package mix with a wedge tomato and a piece of cucumber! Partners had...ocean catch and while the scallops, shrimps, Calamari were fine, the fish was funky like... Red wine selection was only four wines and the Shiraz came from a tap! Just about $100 for dinner and drinks would expect much better. It won't be back.

Great wines ,cold beers very good meals. Enjoyed sitting watching the world go by in this relaxing setting
