Very cool family spot. Big pizzas at reasonable prices and the service was fantastic. You can rent out the greens and play bowls at a fee per person.

Don't waste your time. Received the worst customer service and as for the manager, completely useless.

The place is terrible, the manager is the most useless manager I have ever dealt with in my life. The wings were horrible and they wanted us to pay full price. They didn't want us to escalate the matter to senior management, and the food is not nice, as for the chicken.just find another place, don't go there.

The service at this restaurant is absolutely shocking if not terrible. If there was a negative star, I would rate it the lowest that was available. The waiters could not cope with the amount of patrons resulting in an over three hour wait for food Including three milkshakes. At the time of this post, we had still not received our order. I wouldn’t recommend this place if you are hungry, because there is certainly no indication from anyone including the waiter of how long the orders would take. What was supposed to a festive season lunch with colleagues after a crazy year, this experience was just painful.

Been going there for 20 yrs, it always had a great vibe and really cheap food and drinks. It's become rather expensive compared to when it was managed under the previous management. Still a great place for students, but otherwise, I can get better affordability elsewhere.

The chicken was not properly made and the restaurant refused to take it back. They denied us to speak to the manager of the place. A simple problem could not be solved and the manager was rude. They deserve below one rating star. Please don't go there anymore.

This place has an ambience about it. Great food at very reasonable prices and has a family setting. Definitely a place to visit.

Except that the place was crowded, service was quite slow and they closed early{10 o'clock on a Saturday} it is great value for money and I recommend trying their pizzas.

Attended a kiddies birthday party at the venue. Burger platters and kebabs were delicious & the service was great.
A fun afternoon out, socializing while the adults got to enjoy a game or 2 of bowls in the lovely Autumn sun

Wow Wow. Excellent service. Devine food. We had our ladies day there. Friendly staff. I'd advice anyone to go and try their food. Stew, Curry, Roast, Juice and muffins and scones was all so extremely lovely we had on women's day.

Bar could definitely use some work as it takes forever to order a drink. Other than that it was a jol!

Excellent bar experience. Well-priced food with massive portions. Nice vibe to watch sport or mingle around the lawns socialising.

A very nice place to dine with family and friends and play bowling, good food and drinks and it's very cheap

It's a decent place, prices are fair and the security is always checking if people are bringing weapons. That makes it a safer place to drink. All they need to have is a DJ and loud sounding speakers.

Great place to go for an after work beer. Food surprisingly good every time, and excellent value for money. Service always good as well. Can highly recommend visiting. Plus, can be very fun to have a few drinks and play some bowls as well

Great club with nice facilities even though they are a little dated. Would’ve been nice to have distance markers on the side of the lawn for instance.

Food is good, beer is cold and they have a couple of taps.

Grass is green!

Nice location for sundowners. Very nice staff.

Don't eat there though.

They seem to think that people won't notice they are being served bad chicken. "Just smother it in spicy sauce, they won't even know". Manager denied but one could smell the salmonella reeking through the mozambique style spice layer.

They apologized but still invoiced us for the chicken.

Not coming back.
