The Stirling Hotel

I had Sunday lunch at The Stirling with my husband and 2 kids. The food was really nice. We started with the arancini balls and bread. The bread was delicious however The arancini were a bit bland and the sauce they are served with is quite thick and not tasty. The mains were great! We had schnitzels and the burger, both were delicious! This place has such a great atmosphere, one of our favourites.

We went on a wet, miserable day but the restaurant was warm and welcoming. Our friends ordered the gnocchi special and barramundi while we opted for the vegetarian dishes. These were the spicy red lentil dahl - roast eggplant, wild rice, peanut, soy bean, carrot and coconut salad and the superfood salad - soy bean, black bean, walnuts, quinoa, sunflower seeds, pear, spinach, tomato, yuzu and coconut dressing. Both were priced at $20 and very enjoyable indeed. It is a popular spot but can become noisy with parents and their loud children.

We had a nice lunch at this popular hotel. The only issue was the oysters were not fresh and we decided not to risk any problems so we didn't eat Them. It was disappointing, however the fish tacos were sensational!!! Definitely recommend them!!!

This was a busy place. Not quiet by any means. But the food was good. Menu had a good variety. Price was reasonable. And try the Big Kids desserts. Hadn't had fairy floss for many years but it was delightful with chocolate, malteasers and other goodies.

Went to go to the Bistro on a Sunday afternoon but couldn't get in (too busy) so went to the Grill instead. Wonderful meal in great setting and not that much more expensive. Highly recommend the char grilled cauliflower with goat's fetta as a side - best cauliflower I have had in my life.
