Best Western

Outside tables with good shade. Cold drinks. Great food. Good service and atmosphere. Everyone loved their food! Cater for gluten free too and no side affects.

Stopped in for dinner. Rude staff, so unnecessary (an Irish backpacker girl), I was seeking clarification of ingredients, but she didn’t want to admit she simply didn’t know. Poor slow service, no clearing and the staff don’t smile. The food finally arrived, having read previous reviews now, I probably shouldn’t have been surprised. How presumptuous of me to want to find some type of flavor in my pork meal. Not worth a visit for the food. The on tap beer was good. Really is this the best we can do in a food basin gold mine?

Was a good place years ago, went there with friends and family and oh how it has gone down hill. Service was crap, the young backpacker behind the till hardly spoke English and got our order wrong, over charged us for all three cocktails as well (+$7/cocktail), charged me for a pint not the middy I asked for, didnt kknow what was on the small cocktail drinks menu to begin with. Took 15 minutes to sort that issue out. Why have a trainee foreign language person operating the till during busy lunch period is a huge mistake, let them learn the ropes first before putting them in control of ordering during a busy time?? Our issue caused a backup of customers 10 people deep. I work in a restaurant, behind the till/bar so I'im no stranger to service industry, the person behind the till can make or break a business very quickly.||When the food came out the chips were greatly under cooked, the chicken and pepper sauce was not cooked well either. I left it uneaten for fear of getting ill. My friend had the seafood platter which was just deep fried, greasy supermarket stuff. She left most of hers as well. Her chips were equally under done.||Wont be going back, will go to the cafe's in town instead next time.

The staff were nice at this cool motel & pub, we liked the buildings and the vibe in the pub wasn't bad, but the food was mass-produced mediocrity for rip off prices. Very, very basic mains packaging together pre-bought ingredients together were all over $30 and no veggies available. Maybe we accidentally chose the worst meals the kitchen offered, but they really did suck and I don't have very high standards.

Few strange people around town, took our valuables out of car , rooms were great same as the food, nothing to complain about

Clean place but rooms and restaurant is extremely outdated. |Our shower leaked all over the bathroom floor into the bedroom and furniture was all worn and outdated. |Food was very good however 2 female staff members were very discriminatory towards my family as we have a 2 year old son and was refused service when at the bar when one parent was holding him in our arms and told "im not serving you" |Definitely NOT family friendly but good food and cleanliness is there but thats it. |If you have kids, give this place a miss.

The Pembie fights well above its weight. There are two adjacent sections, the more recent rammed earth motel section and the old pub.||Rooms in the motel are contemporary, clean, air-conditioned and comfortable. Parking is available.||You may eat in the newer bistro area or walk through to the pub. The same meals are available in both areas.|

Excellent food, friendly staff and pleasant atmosphere. The roast of the day (lamb) was a very generous portion, tender and tasty. The salmon (special of the day) was perfectly cooked. All very enjoyable.||The hotel was quite busy, but service was quick and efficient - prices were reasonable.

If you order a main meal you get a free salad bar which is pretty cool! I got the lamb shanks, they were delicious but so heavy, the serving was to big - and I don't think I have ever said something like that before, my stomach is like Mary Poppins purse, it can fit everything! But I would suggest if you are going to take on the lamb shank meal, just eat half. You will be so happy later when you aren't food coma-ing on the couch in pain! That being said though the meal as delicious =) The hotel is an old school building, it hasn't been updated in at least 25 years but that somehow adds to their charm. The servers were polite but the service just wasn't what I would describe as excellent. The place was empty but I found it was easier to go to the bar to ask questions and order than it was to wait for someone to make it to the table. All and all though when I am back in Pemberton I will come back her for another meal. The food is hearty, local and delicious.

Great stop off if your travelling through, cold beer and great bar menu. Also has TAB and accommodation.
