Play Pokies at The The New Royal Hotel Rubyvale

Been here a couple of times and it always has a great atmosphere being the focal point of Sapphire/ Rubyvale. Great friendly staff, close to everything (supermarket, coffee shops, gem stores & caravan park) meals on offer were good however some were not to our liking so obviously the original chef/cook has moved on. First night we tried the Curried vegetables and rice, smelt great but far too hot to eat, the pork belly was good. Second night we tried the steak and lamb shanks this was also ok, third night we tried the chicken peri peri, this was great however the spaghetti bolognaise lacked the tomatoe sauce. Overhaul we spent 4 days in Rubyvale and supported the local community. The pub was great, but choose your meals carefully, maybe stay safe and order the usual pub originals.

Really enjoyed the 'new royal', friendly staff, meal was a classic tasty honest 'pub' meal with decent size portions. Was a cold night and fire was perfectly set. I seemed to get poor 5G while in town, however the pubs WiFi was excellent!

Log cabin style pub lots of locals and day visitors and caravan people, AGreat pub I had the wagu burger ???" and it was great fresh bread roll and great value chips heaps. The beer was cold and had a Powers beer good price. The pub is good value, next time I stay the night they had a smoker going out back for dinner but had to go back to Emerald

My family stayed in the Sheepstation Cabin which was perfect accommodation for us. We loved the fireplace and plenty of space inside, also with outdoor patio surrounded by gardens.

We dined and had drinks in the hotel bar and restaurant and the staff were so friendly and cheerful. Meals were delicious and teenager loved games on the pool table. Management was extremely helpful.

We had a meal here a few nights ago! Meals were delicious, very generous size and really reasonable price. Really cool atmosphere and very friendly staff
