Now been twice and also 5 stars, no issues with smokers but I certainly would feel the same .. excellent service and quality, they even stayed back late to cook for us as we arrived late.
Lose the pokies, lose the smokers and pool tables, concentrate of the food .. steaks, pan fried fish, battered fish all great, thanks.

Racing home to watch the All Blacks but decided to stop in and have a sit down meal and watch the game on the big screen. Excellent meal, absolutely 5star and could not fault!!! What I liked about this facility is that the Smoking is outside in front of the bar/restaurant/games area so we sat downstairs to watch the game and have our fab meal ~ BUT had to leave early as the staff opened up the french doors on the side downstairs for more smokers, so we had to sit in the cold with the smoke wafting through eating our meal and watching the game. Not good. The smoking area is at the front and was not over crowded so the downstairs area should have been kept as a non smoking area. .. Left not happy. Yes we could have made a comment to the staff but when the staff are the ones outside smoking thought it best to just leave.
