Our meals were absolutely delicious! My salmon was cooked to perfection and the variety of vegetables was awesome. It was a lovely place with exceptionally friendly and welcoming staff. We'll be back again.

One of the best meals and nights we’ve had. The owner was just awesome and such a sweet person. The parmi was delicious with one of the best chips I’d ever had. The new Arancini balls were really good as well. The mortal kombat arcade machine and air hockey table were a pretty good bonus too Would definitely visit again. Highly recommend!

First time and oh wow -what a gem of a place-everything was spot on -this is the reason to get off the beaten track and try these places out. I am so jealous of any of the locals having this place to go to. Prices were extremely reasonable even on public holiday

I recently visited The Tipsy Heifer in Willowgrove with a local walking group after a last minute cancellation. They accommodated us wonderfully at a long table, and the staff were incredibly attentive and kind. The food was amazing! We enjoyed garlic bread, calamari, and nachos everything was next level. Highly recommend this place as one of the best spots to eat around!

Went here for dinner for the first time with my partner and it was absolutely fantastic. Staff were excellent. Felt like a 5 star restaurant then a pub. The chicken parmigiana and chicken wrap were the best we've ever had. Well done we will be back.
