No cask. The hand pumps here were unclipped and I suspect they haven't seen any pulling action for some time. Keg offering was Moretti, original SB, Guinness, Murphy's stout, Fosters, Cruz, John Smiths, Amstel, Fosters, Heineken.

Prominent roadside pub with car parking out the front and quite a bit of seating at the front with a variety of picnic style wooden furniture. Inside the right-hand side of the venue had a bar counter with tall stools on a bare board skirt with a tiled entrance and then alternating carpet and bare boards. Regular tables and chairs plus some studded dark red leather banquettes along the right-hand wall before a step up beyond the end of the bar counter to a rear seating area with regular tables and chairs and some further banquettes. The front side of the bar counter to the left of the entrance is also on a bare board skirt with tall stool seating, the carpeted area behind housing a pool table and some gaming machines. There is another room through some swing doors to the left of the venue looking like it is use for functions, albeit it does house the venue’s darting area, having several regular tables and chairs. A rear beer garden is advertised but I didn't go and check. Several screens tuned into pre-evening footy action absent sound. The music soundtrack here was Jekyll and Hyde, quite soulful merging into heavy hip hop. Not one I can say I would choose to revisit.
