    Lovely fish and chip meal. Very accommodating staff. Refreshing drinks. Staff cleaning up glasses , and plates so efficiently. Nothing is to much trouble when you ask. Like extra sauce etc. Or menus, clean glasses. Great venue for a special footy night meet and greet. Very memorable. Definitely recommend.

    From the moment we walked in Con was fabulous, so welcoming and helpful. We are from Hay NSW and we were treated like locals. Highly recommended the atmosphere and service outstanding by all. Will be back for sure Missed dinner this trip but next time we will definitely dine in as the meals coming out looked delicious.

    First of all, if this listing is for the pub, they have a restaurant area in the same premises, and the food comes from the same kitchen, so, anything you see here in my review you can get it at the pub too The Tower is an all in one hotel, restaurant, pub, and pokies (gambling machines) I personally sat at the restaurant The menu has lots to choose from: it has appetizers, salads, burgers, pizzas, pasta, risotto, and other mains, sides, kids menus, desserts... Lots of alcoholic drink options indeed, beer, wines, and liquors They have drinks specials, and food specials that change everyday Personally I went for - orange juice - pear, rocket and walnut salad, with lots of walnuts - linguine vongole, with lots of clams - apple & rhubarb crumble Every food item came in a generous portion , was yummy, and looked super good too (always a good sign to me, if they take extra time to make it look good, you can understand they care a lot about the taste) The person in charge of attending customers, Gina, is lovely, very good first impression on my side, and I could see/hear she had returning guests, which she cared a lot about too While the guys in the kitchen are well efficient too With the same for served in both spaces, you can choose to eat in the restaurant if you want a relaxed place, or in the bar if you're more into meeting a crowd. Oh, and there's a terrace too Basically, lots of options about the atmosphere you wanna get, and the food and drinks you wanna get, great food, nice presentation, friendly and efficient staff... highly recommended!

    The tower hotel is an establishment. I was initially ambivalent as I walked in as there was not many people in there, however the staff were extremely friendly and I felt very comfortable. I turned my BULL RUSH machine to full volume and the lights and colours had me absolutely hooked. It didn’t matter that I lost my future house deposit, I just felt unbelievable with a beer in hand and wonderful pupils by my side. Thanks to Joe who has eaten enough avacados to feed a small village. Regards, Luke

    Good value for 25 buck steak and Pot deal. But otherwise nothing really to be happy about. Ordered Medium and got a well done steak. Little chips to come with. Almost an hour after i placed the order. It's ok to come alone, for a casual average lunch. Not for Friday group lunch and definitely not for Christmas team lunch, unless you have the half day off
