Great local spot. Food was delicious Only a slight con, we felt the surf and turf meal was quite small for 44 and the steak came out over cooked too. But apart from that the waiter was amazing and food was good. Kids portions are big. They even give the kids coulouring packs, which is always a bonus.

Came for a private function upstairs, the staff were very kind, and the food was excellent- better than the 200 per head venue for the actual wedding reception a few days earlier. Double cooked herby potatoes, delicious bread rolls, juicy meats and a flavourful ham. Dessert was also excellent rhubarb and apple crumble that had just the right level of sweetness and perfectly textured pavlova

Had a wedding anniversary there. Food was awesome. But the staff behind the bar. Looked like they were on lemons. Not one smile from them

Great staff great food! The staff were very friendly and willing to change things around when I wanted a starter as a main. Also let me sample the cider to see if I liked it. There is a huge menu and plenty of gluten free and vegetarian options .

Attended their final Bottomless Brunch for 2020. We had a booking for 12 ladies. Food was great! The let down were the cocktails, the service for the drinks was so slow when they delivered our drinks, we would order the next drinks because the time it took them to deliver the drinks our entire tables glasses were empty. They had 4 cocktails to choose from and ran out of two of the cocktails Strawberry Bellini and Peach Bellini which were the two preferred drinks and failed to tell us so even more time was wasted waiting for our drinks. To improve Bottomless Brunch at Blacksmith I recommend having a separate area allocated to those having the Bottomless Brunch so there could be music playing it was strange not having any music in the background and when asked we were told a customer asked to turn it down. But we were there before the customers and there was actually no music. Assigning a Waitress and Bartender for Bottomless Brunch because as more customers came in the Waitress was trying to tend to customers as well as our table. We also saw one of the staff swear f*** under her breath as she came to our table which we all thought was uncalled for no one was being rude. I wanted to give 4 stars because the food was delicious, the service and drinks can be improved but when a waitress swore that was just unprofessional.

One of my favorite restaurants, food was delicious and very good size meal. Very good for a local restaurant. Highly recommended Maybe one feedback on the pork belly not to take the fat part out as some people like it. I took my family and friends there on the long weekend and they all loved it

Had lunch. Service: slow (over half an hour wait) wasn’t busy maybe 2-3 families and 2-3 couples so we expected quicker service. friendly staff. Value: 67 bucks for the burger, schnitzel and a mocktail milkshake. Strawberry Milkshake was a rip off, 8.50 syrup in a narrow bottom glass and 30% of it was just can cream topping. food was actually very filling, very large quantity. Taste: fresh and clean, but very average taste.. especially the schnitzel it was dry, bad battering and not too tasty. Atmosphere: nice and clean, good spot for watching sports as well, nice big screen. Would I come again to eat? A respectful no. I gave a generous 3 for efforts. Maybe will come back to watch sports on the big screen and have a drink. Things to do to bring it back to 5/5: Work on speed, fill a proper glass with milkshake and ask if customers want cream or not, menu should mention that the smoothies and milkshake is juice and Syrup (otherwise don’t call it a smoothie..), work on food flavour.
