The Robertson Country Inn is situated in Hoddle Street, ( Illawarra Highway) in the village of Robertson,Southern Highlands at the top of Macquarie Pass. Its the only pub in town, and accommodates the localworkers, tourists and even has live music on a regular basis.
The day we visited the hotel the verandah was host to various locals and a couple of dogs. All very country. The pub’s entrance takes you into the main bar. Straight ahead is the bistro. This is a large, rustic style room, with exposed wooden log beams, and a stage area with an old piano. Off to the side is the sport and gaming area.
We decided to eat out on the deck, off the side of the main bar. What a contrast. Unlike the main bar, that is dark and furnished with dark wooden furniture,the small bar that runs off the side of the main bar, is a bright room, with large windows, brightly and very comfortably furnished, overlooking the external deck. It’s a delighful place to sit. It looks into a neighbouring property with a couple of sheep and ponies. It’s county yet cosmopolitan.
The day we went was Wednesday after the long weekend. The pub had apparently sold out over the weekend and their food delivery hadn’t arrived. I gather that’s why the salad bar wasn’t set up. However what the chef did dish up was more than I expected, and tasted great.
My friend choose not to adhere to the menu (hmm) instead asked for Wedges and an accompanying salad. I stuck to the menu and ordered the $8 Chicken Schnitzel.
The wedges were pretty typical of wedges. The schnitzel was a good sized porten of chicken breast schnitzel served with some chips and a rather nice side salad, rather than the frequently served green salad. It was refreshing to see (and eat), tomatoes, onion, and cucumber, rather than just the favoured mixed lettuce with a little dressing.
An enjoyable lunch, on a sunny deck in Robertson…why not.
