    Havenโ€™t stayed at the hotel but have had two main meals there. The calamari was nice not stretchy at all. Also had the cheese burger meal, I think the meat pattieโ€™s might be home made because it was delicious. Highly recommend the cheeseburger meal.

    Terrible service, happy hour was a joke, when we asked why the 50 cent discount for happy hour we were told it didnโ€™t include wine and only swan larger was included in happy hour ! It didnโ€™t make sense . We were going to stay for dinner but found a beautiful little seafood restaurant mar de sol , amazing food and service !

    Stayed in a single motel room. It was very clean and well appointed (fridge, tv, lovely big towel!) All the staff in the bar and dining area were extremely friendly. Decent food. Nice view.

    Great menu & good pub grub. I eat some of my lunch & evening meals at this well placed location overlooking The Fascine in Carnarvon. The food is excellent and some of the sunset views to die for. Service is good too!

    Good rooms, neat and tidy. Good service. Food - buffet was really good for the price. Saw a couple have a serving of beef (not sure what the cut was called) that came out sizzling on a stone square on a plate, looked goood. Overall, a good stay

    It was our Second visit here. View is amazing looking out to the beach โ›ฑ๏ธ Bar tender we meet yesterday was very informative with the specials available ๐Ÿ˜€ Tried Iron Jack beer which I quite enjoyed trying it for the first time. Staff were friendly and very hard workers. Okay so the eggs don't look perfect but the rest on my plate was fine. Fish and Chips was quite average. Overall our little stop there for dinner turned out great. Enjoy peeps should you stop there and dine, with a few beers ๐Ÿป ๐Ÿ˜‰

    My colleague and I had the pleasure of stumbling upon the Carnarvon Hotel during our time on the road, and we were pleasantly surprised by what we found. The pub was packed with caravans and backpackers, making for a lively atmosphere. Despite the crowd, the service was quick and friendly, and the staff made us feel right at home. We both ordered food and were impressed with our meals. I got the chicken breast and mash, which was tasty and filling, while my colleague ordered the Parma. Let me tell you, that Parma was something else! It was huge and cooked to perfection, with crispy breading and juicy chicken. To wash it all down, Little Creatures Hazy, and it did not disappoint. It was the perfect complement to our meals, with a refreshing taste that hit the spot. All in all, we had a great experience at the Carnarvon Hotel. The food was delicious, the service was friendly, and the atmosphere was lively. If you're ever in Carnarvon, we highly recommend checking it out. It's a great spot for a hearty meal and a cold beer on the road

    Had a super night here. Glorious sunset views and a cracking party atmosphere in the pub. The food was well cooked, fresh and tasty. It had a rough and ready crowd in the Sports bar, I saw no trouble but the picture below, poster behind the barman, gives you a guide to this. Great games and happy hour deals.

    We come to this pub for dinner whenever in Carnarvon and it has always been good. Last night however was a bit disappointing. My wife had grilled chicken with garlic prawns and I had lamb shank. We both thought our meals were bland. They weren't horrible, just ordinary. Probably overpriced for what we got. Service was good.

    Unexpected find in Carnarvon on the foreshore. Friendly helpful staff. 5 of us for dinner each with different meals, all meals were very good and service was good too.

    We almost didnโ€™t eat here as my wife read some bad reviews, luckily they were the only restaurant open on Sunday, because the food was delicious, really happy we did go. I had the fish and chips and it was fantastic, Red Emporer for your standard fish chips WOW. It was very yummy far better then Barramundi - one of the reviews I think from Anna said it was bad and shame imported fish is better. Perhaps I had a different chef or sheโ€™s a muppet. Either way the fish I had was excellent and far better than the seafood cafe we went to at the Jetty.

    Salt and pepper squid was yum. They did the burgers lunch menu for us at dinner as we were a party of 19 including 11 kids. Food came out quickly. Staff friendly

    Had a delicious dinner in the undercover outdoor seating area, which is also pet friendly. Views to the water overlooking Whitlock Island offers a spectacular sunset. The staff were friendly and all our meals were delicious. Great place to enjoy a meal and a cold drink whilst watching the sun set in a great atmosphere. Pricing was pretty reasonable, too.

    Excellent food, friendly service, water views, a little pricey but worth it for a treat.

    The Barramundi was great, the beer battered fish was flowery and dry, very disappointing as we expected fresh local fish for the fish and chips. Itโ€™s sad the imported barramundi is so superior to what should be local. The beer is also mainstream bland industrial brewer-shame. Wonโ€™t be back in a hurry

    Good sized room, plentiful hot water in shower with good water pressure, friendly staff, excellent meal in restaurant, great location across the road from water and a boardwalk. . Only complaint was nowhere to put anything in the shower - needs a shower caddy or shelf.

    Every time our family travels through Carnarvon, we stop for a bite to eat here. The crew are extremely helpful and family oriented, going way beyond expectations to make sure we are comfortable. Food is fresh and the kitchen staff obviously take pride in their service. Don't usually write reviews like this but feel compelled to given how well the place is run!

    Arrived yesterday, staying at a different hotel. Went for long walk to the sea and needed food urgently! It was an extremely windy day but inside was lovely. Evening service starts at 6pm sharp. The service was brisk and we soon had our food. My husband had battered fish with extra prawns, and I had skinless chicken breast with prawns. Portions were generous, I needed help as lovely mashed potato was very buttery and filling. Both meals were of good quality and I can definitely recommend๐Ÿด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ท๓ ฌ๓ ณ๓ ฟโค๏ธI'd post photos put can't find the button๐Ÿ˜ฑ

    We went to the hotel for a Melbourne Cup Luncheon .It was a nice atmosphere, there was a lady playing the Sax in the background. The service was good and quick. There was platter that you could choose for lunch, but we opted for what was on the normal menu.

    Went for dinner tonight drinks were great but the food was very ordinary. Ordered fish and chips the fish tasted like it was frozen fish then defrosted and left out, it was over cooked and had a funny taste. Chips were yummy but salad was ordinary. Mentioned fish tasted weird to waiters but nothing was said or done about it

    We went in for lunch on a sunday. Food was overpriced for its quality, the staff member behind the bar swore infront of my kids and wasnt intersted in helping me. The place itself is clean and well looked after and it seems to be the only option in Canarvon on a Sunday.

    This is the second time in a week we ate here. First trip was garlic bread and steak and prawns x 2. The garlic bread was lovely and the prawns were nice. The steaks were cooked well (medium rare) but really tough. Second visit we got there early (4:30pm) and waited for the dinner service to start (6:00pm) so had a bottle of wine whilst waiting. Ordered at 6:00pm (Bruchetta, Chicken Caesar and Lamb Shank). Garlic Bread came out and when I said it was supposed to be Bruchetta I got "well this is what was ordered"......ok......we'll wear your mistake and take the garlic bread. And I must say it was lovely! Then the mains came out.....Chicken Caesar was underwhelming. Not enough chicken for the extra $7.00, four croutons, minimal bacon and the egg was hard boiled. Also minimal dressing. The lamb shank was dry and there was hardly any sauce or mash. We've been here 3 times now whilst travelling through Carnarvon. Unfortunately it has come up short each time! Add to the disappointment of the food, the rude abrupt staff member (the girl with the top knot) just assured we will not be back! Having just come from Karratha, the food there was much better!

    Good food, super quick service and friendly locals! What to want more? Definitely go for the special of the day! We will back!

    We came for drinks and dinner, the salt n pepper squid was the best we've eaten in a very long time. Service was fantastic. Loved listening to the DJ.

    Disappointed in our visit tonight. Our entrees were nice but not really impressed with our mains. My veal was burnt and veggies were basically raw. Husband had the Pork schnitzel, no flavour with an oily sauce. Booked a table and arrived to find it occupied and had to wait for them to leave. Staff were friendly.

  • 3/5 Kegs350 2 years ago on Google
    Meals were just ok. Coffee was worse than terrible and was so hot burnt. Sweet options were ok. Good for a drink and sport on tv but set your expectations to low on meals and you won't be disappointed.

    Nice food and location. Stopped in for lunch, sat in the beer garden and it was good. Plenty off street parking available Can recommend
