Wonderful inviting character lodge feel with stone fireplace. Food and service was great. Hubby had the 'Flintstone' steak and said it was the best steak he'd ever had!
Firstly, I've given this review before even finishing my dining experience here purely because I want to show my appreciation for our waiter, Hayden, who has already been an absolute legend and made a great first impression for us at this establishment.
In terms of pricing, I had expected everything to be hyper inflated due to the location but am amazed by the variety of prices available depending on the level of extravagance you may desire.
And lastly, the degree of quality has well and truly exceeded all expectations. My partner chose this restaurant for my birthday dinner and I couldn't be more blessed to have such great food, great company and great service for the only 25th birthday I'll ever celebrate.
I can only hope that many more will be here in the future
Came in with a group of 10 last minute on a Saturday night to see if they had a table. They had one free and we're happy for us to come in. Staff were friendly and helpful, food took a while to arrive but everyone seems relatively happy with their food. The menu is bigger than other Five Stags I've been to. There is also a pool table and darts available.
Dined here last night and we were all very impressed.
The lamb was outstanding and the burgers were delicious. The service was great even though they were very busy and the waiters let us know before we ordered that there was a wait time of 30 mins or so. Great value for money and a lovely setting. We will definitely be back and I will recommend to others.
Great place for having a meal. Reservation is highly recommended. Nice beer, we tried Mac Gold. Their Flintstone steak is great in taste and presentation.
Only con here is the dish for pork rib served in melamine dish thus only 4 stars given.
Loved this place! It's next to the hotel we stayed at so we had our breakfast here which was delicious and coffee was great. It's just got an awesome feel when you're here with super friendly staff, great decor and good food. Definitely recommend coming here 😊
There's so much character in this bar. Felt like a hunting lodge with the roaring fire. Nice big windows to see outside (pity it was too cold to sit outside). What we really liked about it though was the friendly staff. The bar staff were so helpful when we were deciding on wines and they were knowledgeable about the area. We enjoyed it so much we stayed for dinner and even meet the chef. Food was hearty and delicious. Can't wait to come back!
Was very hesitant to visit the restaurant after reading some negative reviews. We had an amazing experience here, and were utterly blown away by the service as well as high quality, tasty food. The chef clearly has attention to detail and is very experienced. We shared the calamari platter with slaw.Wow! The calamari was super tender and the slaw was really tasty too. For mains we had the sirloin steak with veggies, cooked to perfection and full of flavour. Happy hour is between 4-6pm which is handy to know too
We had the venison burger, fettuccine pasta, cheesy chips, cheesy garlic bread, pork ribs and the lamb shank, we werent able to have dessert as the food was that great and filling. Both nights were really awesome highly recommend and really cool staff and very fairly priced. We had breakfast here one morning and again absolutely amazing.
Absolutely brilliant service from both of the lads on tonight one by the name Hayden the other I’m unsure of his name but he was the manager . Managed to get us in to the hotel at a great rate and were very accommodating to my partner on his birthday, so that was lovely as well. Food was fantastic and service was sublime. Would highly recommend this restaurant, as the service and food
is wonderful
26/4/2023 Brilliant service, Brilliant meals. We celebrate a 21st at Five Stags, and would recommend to all my friends and family.
Then returned on 20/5/23 through to the 23/5/23. I got the Cajun chicken, Pork ribs, and also the breakfast. Wow it was so amazing i would highly recommend it. All the staff and the manager are amazing as well. Thumbs up to the Manager, Cook, and the young lad that works so hard. It was nice to have the manager who sits down and has a conversation with you and makes you feel welcome.
Rustic ambience just the way we love it. Great share platter (blue cheese sauce needs the packed punch flavour of the cheese that was amiss). Sticky date pudding was nice and warm. The décor just got me. Encore is probably what I would say!
Delicious meals, we ordered the Pan fried salmon with steam vegies and mushroom sauce, this meal was all cooked perfectly and delicious! We also ordered the share platter, the calamari was either cooked too fast or too high as the outside was brown and crispy but very mushy inside. The chicken was also over cooks as it was dark brown crunchy and dry. The chips and onion rings were nice and cooked nicely. We ordered the kids fish bites and chips which were cooked perfectly and delicious.
Meal came quickly and staff were very friendly
Large area that is the bar and dining area. Yes, there are 5 stag heads mounted and hung on the wall. Rustic and full of atmosphere. Welcoming staff with a ready smile. Cocktails are yummm. The S & P calamari was a nice entree to share. Tender and tasty. The duck was accompanied with lovely fresh local veggies. And my companions enjoyed it thoroughly. My venison was cooked to perfection, the plum a sweet contrast to the meat. The veggies were firm and tasty. Deserts were a lovely way to finish our meals. Good value, too.
Five Stags Restaurant Hamer Springs is a cosy, friendly and delicious place to spend an evening. The onion rings are superb, and I strongly recommend being there for happy hour, 4-6pm, $6 pints! There's a lovely grassed beer garden out the front with a fantastic view of the mountains in the distance. We ate there in early November and the weather was lovely and there were not many people around. Staff were attentive and conscientious and I would love to eat there again.
Went there for breakfast and couldn’t fault it. Incredibly friendly helpful staff, very tidy and a lovely atmosphere. Had the eggs Benedict and breakfast burger and both were wonderful. Well cooked and thick slices of salmon with the eggs benny and perfectly cooked with a runny yolk. The breakfast burger was easily the best breakfast I’ve ever had out and will definitely be back.
Absolutely worth a visit! I think they have the only happy hour in town (every day from 4-6), so they get extra points for that...why not grab yourself a $6 beer?? And, I was happy to see vegetarian options. The falafel burger was great. They also have nice outdoor seating options and friendly staff, too.
