Grove Inn

The Grove is an elderly red-brick pub with few pretensions,walls lined with ageing football memorabilia including tributes to departed regulars,the lovely old tables and wooden bars preserved rather than renovated. The family-friendly bistro delivers simple and tasty food with steak,chicken and pasta dishes making up the bulk of the menu. The herb and mozzarella bread made a good shared entree,while the ridiculously large $10 spaghetti bolognese was great value. The steaks were good value too,but the standout dish was a smoked salmon linguine with pinenuts and baby spinach in a smooth and creamy white wine sauce.
