I'm loving the new smoker! When you can, get the smoked beef short ribs . With a light pink smoke ring and beautiful salt crust, this juicy chunk of meat is my favourite, especially with the chilli !

Michael Lagon

Good selection of draught beers . Fred IPA was a mild session beer . Meat centric grill menu looks great. Nice local feel to the place.

Derek Wilson

Lovely lighting, good vibes, friendly staff and craft beers . You can't not love the Erko.

Food is good here. Sweet potato wedges , meat board, burgers , jerk chicken , smoked brisket ...haven't had a bad meal yet!

John Barrand

Had the ribs as recommended and discovered that a side of coleslaw was extra, so $40 for a rack of ribs and a side of slaw feeling just a little ripped off

Dimitri

Good food, good selection of craft beers , and excellent friendly service .

Darin Fox

Typical pub food . Good for a beer and burger kind of cheap lunch but not much else. Tried it once about 5 years ago. Tried it again in 2013. I'll hope for better in another five years.

Duncan PJ

Nice food, young henrys on draft and a great beer garden

Auri

Parmy or rump with fennel slaw and shoestring fries . I'm addicted ...
