What's happened to this place. Probably the worst meal I have had in years. I'm hoping the cook was having an off night, but the Brazilian pork was nothing Brazilian and I'm not sure what was up with it but haven't been feeling great since. Also kids grilled chicken looked poached and was rather tasteless. Definitely not the normal standard

Had our chrissie work lunch here. Food was excellent, great value and a good selection of beers.However the staff were the mainstay, so lovely & accommodating to us from pre-booking days prior right through to bidding us farewell.Thanks to all, we'll be back for sure.

A trendy little bar located at the heart of Carrington. The service is perfect, the beers are cold and reasonably priced.Located right near the harbour which gives you a relaxing, cool sea breeze.The food was delicious and affordable.I can't wait to go back.

The food was exceptional...tbh, the best buffalo wings I have ever had (and I have had them all over the world). Great spicey margaritas as well. Cool relaxed atmosphere - recommend

The Criterion is our go-to dog-friendly pub in Carrington. All of the staff are incredibly friendly and super-professional. Chilled family vibe during the day makes it perfect for a weekend lunch. Good variety of dishes on the menu and the meals are great quality but they can be a bit stingy on serving sizes (eg my fish and chips which was mostly chips alongside three cocktail fish pieces).

My fav pub in Newcastle! Wings are great and we love that they have a pool table. Great neighbourhood pub.

Worst pub in AustraliaMy first beer and it took 3 goes and 2 glasses to get a totally flat beer@$8. Second beer attempt was a full glass of froth at first so I said forget it I will have a stubby.We had dinner, it was decent.We asked for the birthday cake that we supplied, it came out, all good.We waited for her to come back with plates and spoons as any establishment would provide, nothing, so we helped our selves to plates from the coffee area.Never again

Firstly they forgot our booking, then we we were seated in the courtyard that was filled with smoke from the outside cooker, we moved as we could hardly breath from the smoke and sat outside near our car as there were no suitable tables for my elderly parents inside. Since we were one of the first to arrive at lunch time, we ordered our meals as we heard, there was a large party booking and did not want to wait. We ended up waiting for over an hour for our meals and when they finally arrived they were cold. So not an enjoyable experience.
