Norwood Hotel - Finn Mac Cool's

Food amazing, service amazing, scenery and atmosphere amazing. Just don't go when there is a live band on otherwise you won't hear anything form the person in front of you. Still to this day the best pie dish I have eery had.

This place has friendly staff and a great vibe however food isn't amazing. I had a delicious schnitzel but my other friends' meals weren't very flavoursome.

We arrived as we regularly do on a Thursday night after the guys play soccer and my partner ordered his regular meal; medium-rare steak with seeded mustard. Forty odd minutes later he received a tiny lump of coal and some chips and salad. He asked the waitress why his steak and was so small. She left to check and returned with "it goes by weight, not size". Seeing that clearly it wasn't of appropriate size he approached the man that we knew to be the manager (at the point dressed as a waiter). He asked if his steak looked medium rare to him and the manager immediately insisted it was. My partner said "look, just give me my money back." The manager responded with "that steak is fine, I'm not giving you your money back." Again, my partner questioned the size of the steak and how it was cooked. It was getting a bit too late for us to wait for another meal and we insisted that the money be returned. We are talking about $15 here... the manager flat out refused and... read more

Reasonable priced lunch menu. Always drink specials available. A nice Irish feel pub on the inside. Perfect for a quiet Guinness in the booth.
