A FEAST FIT FOR HEROES

Hearty, nostalgic, and made for sharing - The Tavern serves up a menu full of big flavour and satisfying favourites. Think golden cheesy garlic bread, spicy popcorn chicken, and baked mac & cheese bubbling with mozzarella and manchego.

Enjoy pub classics like the chicken parma with sugo and slaw, or the smokey bacon burger with onion jam and BBQ sauce—are built to satisfy. For something bold, beef & Guinness pie, house-made curry of the day.

Share plates and wood-fired pizzas are perfect for the table. The Pulled Pork brings BBQ pulled pork and balsamic drizzle, while the mushroom pizza layers garlic emulsion, marscapone, and mozzarella. Finish on a sweet note with some house-made donuts or a crunchy chop top.
