Dano’s Lakeside Pub
Bar
👍 Really nice lakeside bar with a large patio and outdoor bar. Very crowded on the beautiful Saturday I went, precisely for that reason! Didn't have any food but the food I saw around me looked tasty, but the beer was cold and refreshing!

Royal Gardens
Pub
👍👍 Sam is a wise bartender with years of industry knowledge and now has opened her own place. I can say from experience she has a massive selection of speciality crafted cocktails rare to find in the area. Add in the fact that Katrina works there and there’s probably no place better in the Lakes!
