Narwee Hotel - Penshurst Road
Quiz Question : Where in NSW is Narwee?
If you guessed North Western NSW, you are wrong!!
How about a hidden away suburb in the south west dwarfed by the bigger suburbs of Canterbury and Hurtsville, spot on!
In the 'bustling' centre of Narwee, adjacent to the train line you'll find Narwee Hotel. Walk in grab a beer or coke in my case, settle down to watch one of many plasma screens televising live sport, and wait for your tummy to rumble. When it does, walk up the counter, peruse a laminated sheet, settle on a dish and take a number back to your table. While it's not fine dining at it's best, the bistro functions very well through this process.
Take a deep breath and enjoy the relatively fresh that circulates through your body. This is the hotel/pub of 2006, clean, fresh air; no smoke to breath in and your clothes as a fresh as they were when you walked in!
On the night I venture into this gem of a pub, is the night of probably the biggest fight in Australian boxing history, and despite the crowd, the food arrives in a reasonable amount of time. I ordered a t-bone steak and it came with a salad and chips. Comfortably, one order satisfied 2 people. I am no expert on steak but this 400 gram monster was tender and tasty! I couldn't resist and also ordered wedges. I wasn't disappointed, nice size, crispy yet not overcooked.
On a cool late autumn winter night, you may choose to sit inside and guard yourself from the crispy night air or driving rain. On a sunny day you can enjoy your lunch and a few drinks outside, and in a thoughtful touch some of the plasmas are set up in such a way that you are not missing out on any of the live action as well.
For twenty dollars(t-bone, and wedges) you really can't beat the value. That same steak could easily double in price just 10km north of this joint. Soft drinks are 2.60 and beers a little more, standard prices really.
If you are not up for a steak, there are pasta choices, and the kids are catered for as well with a special children's menu. Hard up for cash? Then a $7 steak, will look after you. At 250g the steak will ensure you that you are keeping up on your daily calorie and protein intake.
So if you're in the Hurstville area, with a couple kids shouting for food and wanting to catch your team on the big screen, head on over to Penshurst Rd for a good meal in friendly surrounds.
