Great historic pub on the Tweed River at Tumbulgum. Delicious pies (not on menu but behind the bar). Good choice of food. Wonderful location.

Wonderful riverside pub with great outdoor dining and excellent dining! Be sure to book on busy times! Staff were friendly and welcoming especially when you don't know how to pronounce tumbulgum!!

I heard amazing things about the bistro so we decided to drop in yesterday and those rumours are true. I tried the Barramundi with sweet potato fries and mango salad. The barramundi was cooked to perfection and the sides complimented the meal.
My son thoroughly enjoyed the Southern cajun chicken burger and our relatives highly praised their steak and asian poached chicken salad meals. Will definitely be coming back.

What a great pub!
Extensive menu, beautifully presented and generous serves. Great seniors menu too
Perfect location to enjoy views of the river and friendly service

We dined here on Saturday night (this place was recommended by our Bed & Breakfast host) for great meals and great views across the Tweed River. I ordered an entree instead of a main meal (the pork belly) (and the calamari as a side) and it was so huge that I could barely eat *half* of it!!
We were not disappointed - the food was top-class (although more restaurant prices not pub prices) and the river views very peaceful.

Had a nice ride to the pub, ate a awesome stake lunch. Great atmosphere, staff are friendly, view of the river across the road is lovely. We come here quite often. And as long as the food is great, we will keep coming back.

Top place to go for a meal ? looking over the Tweed River views of Mt.Warning
food so delicious ? I recommend the pork belly and the prawn ? Avocado ???' with macadamias, generous serves
staff all friendly, great service ,
Awesome place to soak up the views n sunshine ??

We booked a table for 12pm. But got there 11:20am. Before the crowds came . We ordered our meals and drinks early. By 12pm they were so busy. The tip is to get there early so not queuing up to order. The staff were great and friendly. The place was very clean . Great spot just across from the river.

This is a favourite when driving up the North Coast. Great atmosphere, plenty of room for lunch.
I have always enjoyed the ribs, but this time they were exceptionally nice with the BBQ source.
The Beef Thai Salad was tasty with the spicy sauce
Worth a stop any time of year even for just a coffee and a view of the river

Just spend a few hours at the beautiful Tumbulgum Tavern. Wonderful staff. Drink prices were awesome. We had a share plate of the Pork Spare Ribs they were the best I have had for years. The pork fell off the bone. Was 2 racks of 6 ribs on each. The slaw and potato was wonderful. The BBQ Hickory Sauce was just perfect.
Thanks to everyone at the Tavern. Wonderful kind staff and great patrons
Highly recommend for anyone looking for a couple hours chilling have a couple of brews and great feed. The view of the Tweed River is fantastic ???

The location was lovely with water views, staff were friendly and prices competitive but the service was the slowest I've experienced: 20 minutes queueing to place an order and one whole hour waiting for food. The dishes looked great but definitely not worth the wait. The food was just OK and the menu didn't have any coffee, hot or cold! We will not make the long trip from Gold Coast again.

Second visit for us and the location is on point. River just across the road. Great if you are on a houseboat or any boat. Anchor down and come on over . Popular for motorbike riders. Heaps of seating in the bistro area. Good looking pub in a top spot.

We had a wonderful birthday lunch for my Nana, the staff were wonderful. the food was great . And the view was beautiful.

I had dinner here whilst staying overnight at a mates place in a town nearby. I enjoyed the food and the real country feel to the pub. The staff were really friendly and honest. Even without the head chef that night the meal was still good. I'm sure be even location during light hours with the river across the road.

Stopped by for lunch yesterday. Great selection of food for a pub, meals were large and very tasty! Service was very quick and staff were friendly. There were a few tables booked, so if you're coming on the weekend or with a group might be a good idea to book ahead if you want a particular spot.

Lovely pub located across from the river. Lovely views. Great meals at good prices ?

Beautiful food. Well presented. Good prices
Rib fillet with salad and chips. Crisp skin barramundi with fetta and mango salad with sweet potato chips.

Had a great time with friends, overall food was good not great. Schnitzel was overcooked. Partners cauliflower and broccoli was undercooked. Lady who brought our desserts ( which were great) just dumped them on the table, did not ask whose was whose. Felt that her attitude was quite rude actually.

We had a great lunch here. Plenty of choice for coeliacs and a nice selection of beers. The staff were friendly and welcoming. We will be back

Well the beer was cold.......so was my meal!! Had the beef and bacon pot pie with vegetables. The mashed potato was cold as were the rest of the vegetables and the pastry atop the rammikin of pie filling. Returned the meal to the servery and was advised this would be rectified. Meal returned to me with some warm veg.......still cold mash and the same finger mark I'd poked in it to confirm was cold throughout. Pie pastry still cold. Returned again to servery and was assured once more this would be rectified. Meal Returned to me with a smile and the comment "3rd time lucky". Mash exactly as I'd left it but this time a bit warmer. It was clearly identified that I'd had 3 attempts to get what I'd paid for. A bit of hot food not too much to ask I think. A completely underwhelming experience. My hubbies meal however.....the lamb cutlets.......so much better than mine. Veg was at least warm when it arrived, definitely not hot.

Meal was nice, typical pub meal. Had to go back and asked where meals were. They had forgotten to send order to chef

Magnificent outlook over the Tweed River.
My beef bacon and stout pie with chips was the best.
We always try to have a meal there whenever we're travelling from Melbourne.

Great pub in the backstreets, directly next to the river with a fantastic outlook. Food was pub fare, good value and tasty. Reasonable drink prices, and a playground for the kids to be distracted by. Definitely coming back next time we're staying at the coast.

Great historical pub plenty of parking excellent food and could not fault the service. Suggest book a table if attending on weekends or Friday and enjoy the outlook over the river. Will definitely be going back.
