Governor's Pub And Eatery - Sydney

This is probably the most recommended restaurant/pub in Sydney, but perhaps it is only because it's been around for so long and it's a bit of an institution. The food selection was mediocre, the taste of the food just ok, and besides the live music and lovely view of the water from the deck, the restaurant and the whole experience were just so so. I would far rather recommend other dining establishments in this part of CBRM.

Never really have a bad experience at Govenors. This time just a small error with my order. Asked for maple salmon and got regular. Which was still delicious. I think as well maybe have a line for guests with reservations especially during busy times during covid19 regulations.

Was visiting Cape Breton from Moncton New Brunswick. We stayed at the holiday inn across the street and ate here at Governor’s pub and eatery. The food was very good, we sat out in the beer garden, and enjoyed music played by a local guy. He was very good, and he wasn’t loud which was another bonus..we had an excellent time. Covid has changed all of our lives so it was a real treat to be able to enjoy a meal, have a drink and hear the local music. Thanks for the wonderful Cape Breton hospitality!

When we selected our reservation on the app there was no place to indicate a preference for indoor or outdoor. We assumed the indoor restaurant would be the default but we were offered outdoor. We had to wait in order to be seated inside.

I booked the reservation and forgot to mention that we had someone in our party who had mobility issues. Fortunately they were able to accommodate our party of 5 in the main dining room. Service was great.
