Testimonials

Staff are so nice friendly and very polite. 

Food was bloody delicious and the live music Jodie Casey was just awesome. 

A very relaxing place.! 😊


Wen H.

Had the most amazing salmon I’ve ever had, was cooked to perfection with an amazing blueberry burst glaze.  My husband had the garlic prawns, he said they were amazing.  If you haven’t, stop in.


Belinda R.

Fabulous meal, beautiful friendly & fun staff.

It was a cold, wet day & we walked in & the wood fires were burning in both the bar & the dining room making it cosy & inviting. A most beautiful lunch of creamy garlic prawns just made the experience even better. Thank you to all the staff, we'll be back 👍


Kathryn R.

Working at a Tourist Park, I'm always asked where a good place is to eat in town with a good atmosphere. As my work is pet friendly, I always recommend this tavern as there aren't many pubs with a beer garden left. I've never had a bad meal here, and I doubt I ever will.


Julie S.

If you haven’t been to this little pub just outside of Tamworth, you really need too.

Very busy lunch, little wait for lunch. But the BBQ Ribs are the best I have ever had  so tender and the glaze is just amazing.

Bar staff are very friendly and the pub itself is very clean..

will definitely be back


Jennifer K.

This place is a hidden gem! The food is absolutely delicious and large portions for the price. The fire out the back is great to have a few drinks around whilst watching the kids run around on the grass. The staff are friendly and can mix amazing drinks. Thanks for a great night.


You will not be disappointed stopping in for a feed and a drink or two.

All 10 of us enjoyed our Sunday Lunch outing at the nemingah Tavern. Fast and friendly service. Great little outdoor area for the kids. Only complaint is the poor chicken and birds in the cage had no food or water unfortunately.

Will be back.

Service was slow and doesn’t respect privacy laws. Terrible place


Bailey W

What an unexpectedly delightful pub. Very child friendly, lovely outside area, great little playground (could do with a little tlc) and great views.


Jennifer W

Lovely family atmosphere on a Friday night. Plenty of space outdoors under cover at the rear of the tavern and a large indoor dining area. Terrific spot if you have kids too. Playground area away from the street. Good menu. Solid pub fare well presented in a timely manner and well priced. Staff were friendly and welcoming even though are not locals.


Lisa B

Went there for dinner tonight - a mixed grill - and can't fault it. Food was good. Staff were friendly and helpful. Atmosphere was pleasant with maybe half the guests seeming to be from one of the local footy clubs because they all wore the same shirt.

In my tour of Tamworth area pubs, this one gets a big green tick and I will definitely go back and try some of their other dinner options - the cutlets look good.


Paul

Everyone else really enjoyed their food, however one person had the Nemingha hamburger for $19 , the beef patty was like shoe leather, thin hard as nails and disgusting. Must have been cooked a week ago


Norm D

Great little place,& meals 😋 …


Leslie J

Very friendly staff food was great good clean pub


Tony D

A Great place to have dinner with friends or family. I chose the Cheesy Garlic Bread for Entree, it was an absolute pleasure to start my night. I then chose the Chicken Schnitzel with Parmi Topper accompanied by some gravy. My eyes widened when my meal arrived, it was a massive schnitzel, bigger than I had seen previously. It was cooked superbly, had plenty of Parmi Topper, the salad and chips were great sides too. I will definitely visit The Nemingha Tavern again!

It was wonderful today not to be limited to MacDonald's,Red Rooster or KFC and treated like human adults just because we had a small dog.

The meal was really lovely, the outside area was extremely relaxing and we were made to feel welcome. My husband and I would recommend this Tavern to anyone.
