FUNCTIONS Along with Shoal and Slip, we have two fully-enclosed dining spaces available to be booked for private functions: Trim, which can seat up to 16 people (with a minimum booking of 8) and Mer, which seats up to 26 (with a minimum booking of 15). Each of them are set in rooms that were once historic cottages - you can still see where the original fireplaces were once set. And while they’re private, they’re also light and airy, and filled with personality.

After a wander through Salamanca markets and a look around Battery Point, popped into this quiet local pub. It has a nice vibe with welcoming staff. Had a bowl of the seafood chowder and the croquettes washed down with a schooner of Harbour Master for me and Tassie Rose for the better looking one. Very good value and a mix of locals and visitors made it a good stop for lunch!

Friendly reception staff

Highly recommend this place. I stayed in a budget room (shared bathroom) which was quiet, clean and comfortable. Friendly reception staff and I was able to check in early which was greatly appreciated. The hotel is located in an absolutely beautiful area, a short (and lovely) walk to the CBD. Both the bar and restaurant are 5 stars - ambience, service, stunning food, great drinks. Highly recommended (and I’m fussy lol)

For was great. Service was great.

For was great. Service was great. Place is historic and awesome. The restaurant is behind the bar and fully renovated and modernized while the bar maintains the historic charm. Great place. The oysters were fresh and delicious and the beer was cold.

Stayed here for 2 nights.. Room Was great location was excellent.. The whole vibe in the hotel/pub was warm and friendly. Very reasonable and the shared kitchen was well stocked for breakfast. Would definitely go there again
