The Channon Tavern

Great little tavern. Had calamari and chips for lunch was very tasty. Good spot to drop into if The Channon markets are on and also before or after doing trail walks around area

Great food, friendly staff but book if you can. Even if it's just before you go it's worth it. There wasn't a chair to spare when we left today at 1pm and people were standing, waiting and we watched them put reserved signs on most of the tables before 12:30 and by one there was standing room only.

Great Japanese cuisine in a country pub. The sashimi plate was superb, with the sweet scallops taking the prize for deliciousness. The salmon and tuna were a little bland, suggesting 'frozen ', and the kingfish was tasty. The grated daikon, pickled ginger, and wasabi were nice accompaniments, but the seaweed was the standout. I could 've eaten a bowl of it by itself. Presented beautifully. Unfortunately, the very delicious octopus balls with the most delicious bonito flakes and BBQ type glaze arrived in a cardboard boat. Confusing to say the least. The Speckled Drongo pale ale was a fine pairing with the food. The lady serving behind the bar was friendly and welcoming, as was the chef. Moderately priced, but worth it if you enjoy good sashimi and Japanese food. There were also lots of sushi rolls ready for a quick bite.

The food portions are great and the locals are very friendly

Great Australian pub, excellent food and great atmosphere. Staff very friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend.
