Been here plenty of times with the food and service always being great. Today the food was exceptional I just had to leave a review.
Seafood basket was delicious, scallops and calamari a stand out. The rump pizza special was creamy and flavoursome.
Heaps of outdoor seating and a nice play area for kids out the back.
J. D.
Came here for the first time for a meal with a few mates. Booked a table a few days before and that was an easy process, with good customer service. The food was amazing, you definitely get what you pay for. The drink prices were good as well. Above everything, I think the atmosphere and general vibe of the outside area we were seated was the best part. Will definitely be back 👌🏻
W. B.
Really nice lunch on Sunday, good live music outside and a nice relaxed atmosphere. Food did take a bit long to come out but they were pretty busy so understandable. The Tesla destination charger wasn't working when we visited.
A. F.
Very family friendly with a play area for all ages of children.
The dining options are varied and very generous in serving sizes.
Despite the heat and humidity this spot has cooling and fans that not only keep mozzie away but also provide a cool breeze that doesn't feel intrusive to the dining experience.
A relaxed atmosphere in a beautiful location.

The Samford hotel has definitely improved since we had last been about 3 years ago. Our kids love the outdoor area and I definitely recommend it if you have small kids! There is a huge fake turf running area and we have even taken two small trikes for our twins to ride around and a couple balls for them to throw! The food is also great and they now cater to my allergies which is absolutely amazing! I am unable to eat deep fried food at most restaurants due to them not having a separate fryer from seafood products so I was beyond excited when I found I could have a good old chicken schnitzel again! Absolutely definitely recommend!
J. A.
Charming Country Hotel. Enormous portions of tasty food and good beer.
The highway is noisy so get a seat inside the property if possible.
Well worth a drive to go chill here!
C. I.
We visited for dinner during a weekend getaway.
Husband ordered the Classic Parmi and I ordered the beef cheeks. He thoroughly enjoyed his food and the beef cheeks were melt in your mouth good. Absolutely amazing and would come back for them.
The downside was the cost of drinks. $12 for a Cruiser and $12 for a Canadian Club is an absolute ripoff and the Hoteliers should be ashamed of themselves.
However, on a positive note, our server Lincoln was the bomb! Friendly, helpful, accommodating and bloody funny to boot. Don’t lose that one, he’s a keeper!!
S. B.
Liked the atmosphere, staff very helpful.
Some meals came a bit later than others but I understand - fully booked.
Food was great, big serves. Caesar salad with chicken is a winner.
Entree calamari was perfect, that's my go to next time.
Chicken Parmy & an entree could feed 2 of us no worries - good to share
d.
Great location, ambience, food and service. They were such a delight to visit and so much seating capacity. They really are too tier with pub food without the top tier pricing. If you’re in the area, well worth a visit.
J. H.
My meal was delicious,I had seafood curry, my only compliant is I think the rice was placed on my plate not very warm, then the curry sauce over the top, so my meal started if warm then cooled very quickly.
Other meals
Rib fillet, rated 7 out of 10
Whiting rated 7 out of 10
Wagu steak sandwhich 8 out of 10
The meals were very generous, tasty, pretty well done all round, Good job Samford Pub
D. B.
I had pizza. It looked great. Something was missing though. Either the base sauce or cheese wasn't right. Partner had steak. It can be tough to cook steak medium to well done and still be tender. I took a bite and I'll just say my jaw got a workout.
S. P.
Went here for dinner with friends and family after a soccer match. What a stunning experience we all had, the food was spot on and the service second to none! Staff were busy as but so caring and attentive to ur every need will definitely be returning! Great work guys 👌
W. C.
Great food. Staff were accommodating for a large group. Kids had fun playing out the back.
k. c.
Great food good atmosphere way bigger inside than it looks. And live music on weekend's. Definitely going back.
J. K.
We usually visit after a morning session fishing at the nearby North Pine Dam. The Rump or Rib Fillet Steaks are grilled perfectly and the Chicken Parmigiana is delicious. Staff here are friendly and helpful.
D. P.
Family friendly and a good vibe. The beers cold and the pub food is pub food. Parking is a bit tricky and traffic to leave is painful but overall worth it
G. S.
First time visitors for dinner and definitely will not be our last. Meal was brilliant and the service amazing. Thanks
J. O.
Had the pleasure to celebrate Valentine's Day lunch at the Samford Hotel. The hotel located in Main Street Samford has a relaxed atmosphere, I found the staff to be friendly & went out of their way to make you feel welcome.
The Samford Hotel has a large verandah at the front of the hotel where you can relax & enjoy a cold glass of your favourite beverage.
There is a Sports Bar located at the front of the hotel, which is filled with local Memorabilia, many of the items displayed on the walls would have been used in the early settlement of the Samford district.
QR scanning is required on entry to this hotel there are two areas that I found on entry through the verandah area & the other when going straight into the restaurant area.
The restaurant is located towards the left hand rear side of this establishment, very easy to access & the bar area is in a user friendly to the restaurant.
We ordered two 400gram Steaks, both were cooked to perfection, a fresh serving of chips & salad was also served. Highly recommend trying a steak on your visit to this hotel.
The Samford Hotel offers a fantastic selection of meals on their menu, prices of all meals is reasonable.
The hotel offers a great selection of craft beers & other assortment of beer & a wonderful range of wines & spirits.
The one thing I noted was the amount of seating that was available at the Samford Hotel, more than enough to cater for large groups.
My recommendation if going to this hotel is to make a reservation in advance.
The Samford Hotel has a large area for children to play & just have fun, this is located at the rear of the premises just down from the restaurant area.
From what I observed it is important to try & make a selection of what meals you require as early as possible as the restaurant area is very popular & I found that I received our meals in a timely manner.
The Samford Hotel has air-conditioning in most areas, but a lot of the doorway & window areas are open.
There are areas of the hotel with large fans operating, mainly in the area near the where the children play area is located.
I was more than impressed with my meal & visit to the Samford Hotel. Will definitely recommend this unique hotel when I have visitors.😋🍹🍺🍸🍗🍿🥩🍔😋
j. P.
Whilst the wait staff were very friendly and helpful, and the food was quite nice, I was a little shocked to be charged $2 to swap out fries for mashed potatoe, and charged $2 for a tiny dollop of aoli sauce. Since when to get get charged to swap out? Never experienced this before, and I did think it was a bit of a cheek.
S. M.
Visited Tuesday night, 14 December 2021... 4 diners
Quite a nice venue. We sat in the beer garden area, outdoors, but covered.
Two of us ordered Rib Fillet with mash and veges, other two had pizzas (2 for1 deal on Tuesdays)
Start with the pizzas... they looked pretty good, and they tasted good too. Of course, I can only take the word of the diner who chose the vegetarian version. But I did try a small piece of the Supreme... quite tasty.
The steaks were ok. Just ok. Not special in any way. Mine was a bit overdone for 'medium rare'. The veges, while plentiful, were also very ordinary. Just steamed carrot, broccoli and cauliflower and a big dollop of ordinary mash potato. The mushroom sauce came in a thimble!
So, an ok meal, but at the price of $37 for steak and veg, I expect it to be presented with a little more obvious 'love'. Like, giving a decent serve of mushroom sauce (or other sauce of choice) would have a been major improvement! Seriously, I serve up a far better steak and vege at home.
If I had just had pizza, maybe it could have been 4 stars?
P. W.
Wish it was better. Some very good staff but the majority not so. Food is very poor and overpriced. Would only get two stars but the beer is good. Would be good if the head chef cared about creating good food or maybe they get dictated to by management. Could be great country pub, hope things change, would love to give five stars for my local.
J. W.
Beautiful meal on a busy Saturday lunchtime. Staff were friendly and attentive
Great prices and the freshest quality ingredients beautifully presented
J. S.
Enjoyed our visit to Samford Hotel.
Great spot to mixed amongst the locals. There drink prices were good, enjoyed sitting in the beer garden whilst having our meal. Definitely worth a visit.
A. T.
Terrific staff and venue.
Thoroughly enjoyed our steak sandwich, served with chips and delicious side salad with herbs and light dressing.
J. H.
Had a good meal with some friends. The steak I had was great. Well priced. 👍
J. K.
Absolute great food. Fast service, especially considering we were there on Sunday for lunch! Great area for kids to play. Highly recommended. Will definitely return!
g. g.
Good pub with cold beer and nice atmosphere. Great restaurant and worth trying
D. B.
Welcoming hotel. Very tidy and spacious. Well decorated. Relaxed atmosphere for a refreshing drink.
J. C.
Went for a meal with my wife and kids. Kids had a great time in playground area, they played soccer with other kids in the big grassed area and then played video games in a little playroom. Food was delicious and came out really soon after ordering. Was a nice atmosphere and just what I was after for a family dinner out.
G. C.
Good, but could be better. I would also expect a modern pub/tavern to have decent craft beers. You'd be lucky to find any genuine craft beers.
K. G.
If you have special dietary needs, make sure when giving the order staff record this. My wife's meal was delivered but not with gluten free chips as ordered, the meal was sent back to be corrected. By the time eaten my lunch her meal had still not arrived, we either another 10 minutes and still nothing, I approached the manager to ask where the meal was. 5 minutes later her meal arrived with gluten free chips and an extra piece of steak.
The photo is chook parmy of ordered, it was excellent, we'll be back again.
R.
Very busy so slow getting food, but staff and food were great! Definitely will go back again😁
B. G.
We enjoyed ourselves. A family gathering where the food was delivered about the same time, was plentiful, and well cooked. I'll be back.
H. M.
Lunch today here was really nice, the slow cooked beef cheeks are really tender, definetely recommend trying this. Staff were friendly and nice environment will definetely be coming back.
R. W.
Love this Hotel country feel First time we were there over the road was just paddocks but now Samford is a magical place
R. B.
31/5/21 - I would give it 5 stars if a single staff member smiled, seriously poor attitude!
Great pub with lovely garden areas to dine in. My fish of the day was 2 pieces of perfect whiting with a great salad; second meal was pizza and just as good. Meal size good value for $, location excellent, Venu smart, food great, staff need retraining.
S. B.
Nice and clean service was ok... comfortable chairs.. bur didn't have air conditioning on... was a bit hot and humid inside...
B. S.
5 Stars for the simple fact I’m on a low carb diet and I could order the Wagu steak sandwich meal minus the bread, cheese, sauce and added a serving of tofu from the salad topping menu.
C. B.
Small but good menu. But 5 stars cause I love the trivia nights
J. R.
We love going there on Saturday afternoon. It's perfect for us for late lunch or early dinner. Great prices and great food! Variety of local and foreign beers available. We are regulars there. And last but not least: very friendly staff.
J. C.
A really nice casual atmosphere here and the food is great! I ordered the pork belly and it wasn’t too fatty or dry which can be the downfall of the dish. The crackling was lacking salt and wasn’t very crispy but the quality of the meat was really good. The steak sandwich was really great value and used really fresh ingredients. Will definitely be back.
L. M.
I don't understand. Huge place. Went on a Sunday for lunch , They said we cannot accommodate you all for lunch. Ok back and forth, we lost few people, then they said ok you can sit at the back. Waiting times are 40min, ok sure. We sit in an area with two long extra tables, empty all the time we were there. Meals arrived 10min after we ordered. We were 12. Not sure they have their act together . Would i recommend or go back for group meal.. no. Having so many other options around. I guess they will say covid times.
J. v. d. E.
The staff were very friendly, and the food was exceptionally delicious. I would recommend this place to anyone.
R. H.
Great pub, uncrowded midweek. Nice food and plenty drink selection. Parking out back, keno and pokies available. Definitely be back but never in the weekend. Too busy.
S. K.
Food is quite decent, especially for the price. Both meals were larger than expected, which was a big positive for me. Service was extremely friendly and prompt. Would highly recommend. Also seems like a good place to bring the kids with the playground out the back.
R. D.
Great Sunday afternoon vibe. Live music, relaxed country feel pub with plenty of outdoor seating 30 mins from suburbia.
D. B.
Biggest meal I've ever eaten out. Super tasty and HUGE servings enough for two people. It actually shocked me which justify the $35 'catch of the day's fish n chips... Included prawns, calamari (best I've ever had), scallops,salad, massive piece of fish very tasty, chips and side salad. Will go there every time I'm in Samford. ONLY downer was there was no cheap steak options and I was in the mood for steak but all $40-$45 expensive cuts (Wagyu organic grass fed something or another) bit exey $ for a pub. Otherwise can't fault it was super big and super tasty loved the food.
J. R.
Love samford small village with lots of carrictor just loved the crystal shop could have spent lots of money there if i had it well worth a visit
J. M.
Very good quality pub food. A wide selection and lovely ambience with the outdoor garden setting. The staff could have been more friendly and helpful.
N. C.
Not once was our Vax status checked. Disappointing they don't take the health and safety of their patrons seriously.
A. O.
Great little pub, food is fair to good, beer is cold.
タ.
Very pleasantly surprised, great service food came out quickly and was delicious.
K. C.
This is dad's favourite haunt.
He shouted us dinner last night and I can understand why he loves the place.
We'll be back again and might even try to pay for dad next time (I'm safe. He probably won't let me).
P. S.
Today I chose The Beef Cheeks and very glad that I did!
I would have to say one of the best meals of my life!
The beef didn't need a knife or fork and the sauce was something that I could not get enough of.
Cheers Samford Pub, well done!⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
J. B.
We went as a group of 4 for Wednesday night Steak Night. It was quite busy so I suggest booking. One of the best "Steak Night/Pub Steaks" I've had. For $20 you get a sizeable steak, chips, salad and a dinner roll. Surprisingly large meal for the price. Delicious array of sauces too.
Hats off to the kitchen - as you go to order you can see how busy the grill chef is in the kitchen, and they took about 20 minutes to come out. But really, if you want a nice steak and a drink in a relaxed pub setting, this is the place. Must check out their steak nights!
D. S.
Great spot, we love it. The selection of food options could be better though
R. P.
Busy Saturday lunchtime, but staff were pleasant, kids area is great. Food portions were generous and delicious.
L. M.
Our initial greeting was very friendly, but the time it took to order a meal and even drinks was very slow. Bar tender more interested in chatting up then serving. The meals however came out very fast and were great.
A. H.
BRILLIANT BRILLIANT BRILLIANT!!!!!
Fantastic food (and a LOT of it), reasonable prices & the BEST service.
My Wife and I are very much looking forward to going back again.
For anyone who is interested in going here - I would highly recommend it...
The only problem with this place (but it's the same EVERYWHERE in Samford) depending when you go - is the parking. Parking can be a real challenge in the main street at Samford.
E. L.
I went on a Monday night and booked a table through their online booking system which was super easy. Honestly the venue is super chilled and has good ambience and lots of spaces to sit. The waiters were super helpful and lovely. The menu is good. They have specials with the monday special being $18.95 parmie. The food came out super quick.... and the food is huge and amazing. It is super super super tasty, huge portion, really worth your money and I would 100% recommend eating here. Nothing to fault. Best "pub" feed I have had in Brisbane yet.
S. J.
Wow very busy place has a country feel, parking at rear not many people know is fairly big. IT is dirt though there is some shaded spots if you are lucky.We had the risotto and it was very lovely just the right amount of food.Some items are a bit expensive than usual for a Pub meal but the quality is good.
C. M.
Nice live music on Sunday afternoon, food is great and plenty.
M.
A great pub, with a great atmosphere! We went on Wednesday night, which is steak night. 400g rump, chips, salad and bread roll for only $19.95! It was the best steak I’ve had in a very long time. Highly recommend
B. E.
We signed in out the front beer garden for covert and the manager asks us
" HAVE YOU BOOKED IN," we said no, " HE TELLS US YOU WILL BE LUCKY TO GET A TABLE" not once did he suggest a upstairs table, it was like he did not want us there, my wife and daughter and we where dressed nicely
Now this review is based on the rude experience from the first person who greeted us because we have been coming here for decades with a good experience to food and just a nice place
We got a table up the top near the front deck, and the food was great and the staff where friendly but this part needs to be changed because of how rude he was towards us, he made us feel very unwelcome,
i was quite upset by this attitude towards not only me but my Wife and daughter
R. O.
Parmy and barramundi were excellent. Huge space and grassed area out the back for the kids.
M. L.
Good food and great beer, what more do you need??
G. D.
Phone up and book a table in the courtyard, then forget about the outside world. What a wonderful way to spend a Sunday afternoon, great company, great food, great beer... went for lunch, left after 4, could have sat there all night, then walked down to the sensational bakery... top spot... good one Samford Hotel... seeya next weekend...
R. P.
Stopped in with family for a lunch. The food was absolutely delicious and servings generous. Sat in the outdoor and although raining kept completely dry. Quite a nice pub. Keep up the good work!!
A. P.
Fresh food, great service and awesome ambience. Thank you 🙋
K. K.
When you’ve been for a lovely drive up the mountain range make sure you stop in at this very special pub for an icy cold beer as you watch the sunset. A wonderful town with lots of four legged lovely local horses that are also welcome here. Service with a smile, clean and sparkly premises, lots of parking close by, great prices and fantastic views.
D. N.
Great place for a good meal and drink
D. B.
Amazing food divine service fantastic
T. S.
What a great little country pub. Great food, fast and friendly service
S. W.
The meals are generous, with prices representative of their size. The atmosphere is good, with an ample family area out the back. Often has live music in the front courtyard.
N. W.
Nice venue and great staff. Food was quite disappointing and very pricey for what it was.
C. D.
One of the best chargrilled steaks I've had in a longtime!
Friendly staff and great service.
M. W.
It was busy, 50 minute wait for our food, but the food was nice, three of us had the steak sandwich the only thing that would of been better if they toasted the bun, the beer battered fish was delicious and the beef burger was ok.
J. B.
For our first time visiting we were very surprised and the food portion sizes, you get what you pay for that's for sure. Lots of room out the back for kids to run and play while you have lunch or dinner. Would recommend.
D. T.
Massive establishment. Great kids play area so excellent location for a family gathering, food was okay but not great. Prices were perfectly reasonable for food and drink
D. B.
Great venue, especially for families. The play area for children is huge. Food is delicious, reasonably priced and substantially portioned. (My pork meal is pictured)
P. M.
Really fantastic experience, well executed food from upper end pub definitely not standard pub grub, the chef's did really well with such a big seating restaurant. Will definitely come back any time. Well spoken polite staff that were local and happy to help. Nice locals that had a bit of chat and happy to let you know what's in the area.
K. J.
Love this place. Very relaxed atmosphere, great setting. The staff are efficient and friendly. Can't go past the Chicken Parma, great value - especially as a Monday night special.
C. M.
Food was great and staff were amazing. Could do with an outdoor play area to keep the kids amused.
C. C.
Great food and reasonable prices
Comfortable seating and happy staff.
A good place for a leisurely meal
C. F.
Lovely beer garden to enjoy your meal. Country pub atmosphere. Part original wooden queenslander pub part renovation upgrade. On the main street in Samford village.
K. J.
Nice food good service and friendly staff.
M. W.
Almost don't want to write such a great review so we can keep this place as good as it is! If you're reading this guys, don't change a thing!
Loved by locals and day trippers alike, the pub boasts excellent food, decent beer and wine selection, great outdoors dining and a huge fenced kids play area.
The staff are very attentive and friendly, even when busy nothing is a hassle. At least 4 different staff served us last visit and all were excellent!
Food appears to be your standard offerings at first glance, but it's is done very well with fantastic sides and trimmings. Most if not everything made on site or locally. Even the fisherman's basket itself is edible!
Last visit we had carvery night, was excellent value and quality. Haven't had a better roast since we were in the UK, had all the trimmings including crackling and horseradish sauce. The starter pea and ham soup was fantastic and the crumble desert topped everything off marvellously!
There's also a great Birthday Club, which includes a bottle and pizza for the birthday person as long as you have a group of 4+.
Next time you're heading to Mt Glorious or the Samford Valley be sure to stop by lunch or dinner!
K. H.
Great for a steak or pizza. Kids had a blast in the outdoor playground which has a play fort, springless trampoline, inflatable obstacle course and games room.
Fun for the whole family.
Kids meal were $9 fish n chips, came served in a box which they thought was pretty cool.
We’ll be back.
L. B.
Best pub around. Great food and drinks. Nice staff
P. K.
Eaten here a few times now, always a lovely meal. Good prices, good size meals, friendly staff and plenty of seating.
G. S.
Great country pub, nice pint of Guinness
B. B.
Simple, tasty, well priced, no frills pub grub. Beautiful leafy outdoor area to relax in. The vegetarian options were limited but you get that in all pubs. However, what options were available felt a bit confused to me (like avocado on pizza? Why?) but others may enjoy that. Would still go again.
M.
Good Queensland pub with big meals and a good atmosphere. I just wished we didn't have the young barman preach to us about COVID and pass his judgement on patrons that had a different view to himself.
B. C.
Great atmosphere and food and lovely staff.
K. L.
So much to love about this pub. It’s huge, has a real country feel to it, lots of tables and it super child friendly, there is a massive play area out the back with tables close by to keep and eye on the kids.
The food is really good quality, steaks are a bit pricey but you certainly get what you pay for in terms of quality.
Only let down has been last 2 visits my steak has been over cooked, when your paying $40 for a steak it should be cooked right. Have had sent to back and second replacement steaks were cooked perfectly.
C.
Great family friendly atmosphere. The kids loved the big playground area. Food was good too.
G. S.
Called in for lunch on public holiday for lunch .Lots of people not to much social distancing happening. Quite a wait for food but was worth it nice parmi $26 and fish and chips salad etc $24 other half enjoyed. Would recommend
A. E.
Service, venue, food, $Value, all 1st class
P. S.
Came in today, which is the first day they reopened since covid 19. It's clear they are taking their responsibilities seriously, and the rules they implemented are great. It's my first time here, but we will be back for sure. The prices seemed a bit high when I looked at the menu, but was happy with the quality and portion sizes, so worth the money. Caring attentive staff. Excellent experience all round.
P. e.
Nice little pub great food a little expensive not much parking
I. H.
awesome food and a great vibe, however the salad could do with slightly less mint dressing. other than that and overall excellent experience
N. L.
I have been here many times over the past 10 years and have never had a bad experience. The staff are lovely, the food is delicious. When the kids were little, they loved hanging in the playground and we now take a ball so they can play in the closed in field. Highly recommend.
F. A.
A bit noisy but meals are huge, so make sure you are hungry and thirsty before you go! Great atmosphere. Locals are friendly.
s. w.
Omg the food was amazing! Definetly coming back..a little slow coming out, but I think that was due to the time we got there. Nice drive out there too!! Just gorgeous!!😁😁
G. D.
Really nice gf garlic pizza!!
B. W.
Samford hotel was clean, food service was fast and the food was delicious. We had a pizza shared between 4... 2 slices each.. haloumi cheese and aronchini balls , red wine and 2 jugs of beer for less than $40 DOLLARS. Great Sunday afternoon drive destination.
J. P.
We have visited twice in the last month. Both visits were on a Tuesday night which is half price pizza and trivia night.
The pizzas are generally really tasty however on the most recent occasion they were over cooked.
Ensure you order your pizza before the line gets too long or you might be waiting a while.
The trivia night is good fun and entertaining if you are with a group.
I like the Samford hotel and will certainly return.
R. G.
Love the atmosphere here! Kids loved the play area, set out is very relaxed. Staff are friendly. My only small let down was the menu had a lot of seafood. One pork option. Which is great but 2 people at our table (inc me) didnt eat seafood or pork and it didnt leave much to choose from unless you wanted to pay more $ for a steak so we ended up sharing a pizza instead of having a meal. Pizza was nice! Would be great to see a chicken/beef meal like a schnitzel or parmi or something on there as an option. Regardless.. we will be back :) Thankyou.
j. p.
The Samford rocks when Rovics Karaoke is on. Wouldn't order the hot chips though as I received Luke warm stale ones and had to tell someone to receive hot fresh cooked ones instead. The aircon was not working properly making the place very hot and the prices for a bottle of soft drink were ridiculously expensive. Would go back for Karaoke and that's about it.
J. B.
Great pub delicious food and great service. Love coming here! The calamari is especially delicious amongst other dishes ☺
J. A.
If you are going there on a Sunday it is best to book a table.
Great food and the staff are very helpful.
R. T.
Great pub. Super busy last night, but even then. Everything was delivered in reasonable time, especially considering we struggled to even find a table because of how busy it was. The foods awesome. Portions are great. Awesome place to go, and they have a great playground for kids. Would recommend.
K. P.
Great place with good food and atmosphere
J. M.
Very nice but confusing as we went to get food as we were driving thru on our way home, and as we didn't have a booking we were told to go to the bar as they have the same menu...the people at the bar had to go back down to the other area to get us drinks...the young lady at the bar (with red hair)was great. People who seemed to be locals were just sitting there drinking but a husband and wife with a baby ,that was getting a bottle had to leave as there were to many people. I understand with covid rules you are only alound 20 people. But the baby needed a bottle more than the other people drinking..
J. I.
Great place. Has something for everyone and all ages. Plenty of room to move about both indoors and outdoors. Lovely atmosphere
J. R.
Ambience is lovely and kids playground handy. Food is pricey but doesn't deliver quality. Ok but far too expensive for the average tastes.
M. B.
Excellent food. Friendly staff
D. 1.
The meals were very tasty and large servings. Staff very friendly. Looking forward to coming back again soon.
K. S.
Wonderful lunch reasonably priced
S. S.
Good food, semi-reasonable prices , friendly staff but about 15 min between my meal arriving and the other 2 meals for my table.
J. C.
We've been here a few times. The food is better than the standard Aussie pub meal, but still nothing outstanding. It's a big pub and can get really packed, however, they do seem to cope well.
D. R.
Nice country styled pub that is only 30 minutes out of Brisbane. Although it can get busy there was adequate staffing to meet your needs. Good selection of tap beer to choose from and the menu looked fantastic with the selection of steaks.
E. L.
Country-is atmosphere with inner city prices.
Air-conditioning cranking straight out every singe open door and window in the bar area.
Pizzas were nice and some very descent amounts of topping which was nice.
Atmosphere is pretty bland considering what could be done with the space.
S.
Good Pub as in the looks and different areas in the pub like pokies and eating areas.
Lacking food service 100%. Having to ask a staff member about food and her having no idea what’s even on the menu to then her standing there and serving someone else whilst we still haven’t gotten an answer about the menu.
The first bar you see doesn’t have all the options of beer but the bartender was perfect.
Great location just lacking in some areas.
P. H.
Good service, and meals are prepared in good time. Being a vegetarian, there is not a lot of choice (so what's new!), but the veg lasagna was very tasty. The weather can upset your comfort if it's raining or very cold because a large part is outdoor dining. Great for a hot summers night.
A. D.
Great food and dog friendly
D. P.
Lovely pub with friendly staff and tasty food! The beer is nice too!
E. S.
Came out here on Thursday and had fantastic meal of chicken breast wrapped in prosciutto with blue cheese sauce. So delicious we came back on the Saturday and the special was sold out😢😢. Please bring it back soon😋
K. v. W.
Lovely food and staff.

Really great food and lots per serving. Nice decor. Second hand smoke effecting the dining area out the front.
Otherwise great atmosphere considering we had a 6y.o. and an 86y.o. in our party.
P. D.
It's good to see a pub that can make pizza. We had the "Italiano" and the "meat, meat and more meat" pizzas. Was also good to see chilly and jalapeno as options on there. Not many places make a pizza that's actually hot :)
The beer garden area also has a kids playground area so it's very handy for breeders. Went for Saturday lunch, everything was nice and clean. The service was friendly. There is a nice deck out the front. Glad you guys upgraded the food quality since last time I was there. Will be back for sure.

We went for dinner on a rainy Tuesday night. It's a nice place and we dined outside on the deck because we had our dog. The service is fast and friendly. We had the fishermans catch and grilled barramundi. Both are $30 each and were a large serving. They tasted good and we were happy with them.
A. W.
Excellent steak and the pumpkin beetroot salad was amazing. So much feta, garlic crouton and almond goodness! Really loved the meals. Quite generous too!
r. P.
Why haven't I tried this early? A great Friday night with live music. Kids are welcome until 10pm. The food was prompt and tasty. The prices are reasonable and the staff friendly.
M. S.
Not impressed, you are made to pay a surcharge in public holidays, they make a fortune there anyway.
T. G.
Decided to get the BBQ chicken pizza and didn't expect I could eat it all. But it was so delicious I couldn't stop eating and it was gone before I knew it! Great environment and service. Perfect place to catch up with someone or have a date
J. S.
Lovely service, nice and clean.
The burger was great and the live band was nice too hear aswell.
B. M.
Excellent pub food and great live entertainment on a Sunday afternoon
J. P.
Typical pub fare, with a decent selection of beer on tap and reasonably priced meals. Great kids play area out back. Can definitely get busy on the weekends. Bookings for groups of 6 or more recommended.
N. X.
Great food. Always too much to eat. They have a limited menu but everything there is gold. Always make a reservation for Fri/Sat, there's a kids playground out the back and live music to create a classy yet family friendly pub atmosphere.
J. H.
Good hotel, country feel, but not to far far from the city. Atmosphere is good, Management and staff are very approachable and always happy and willing to help.
J. F.
So glad we gave it a go. The food was great and there is an excellent kids area. We will definitely be back
J. S.
food was good for pub food and my special was pretty good except for the wedges which were overdone. It was the kids meals that were disappointing as they were over cooked to the point of being pushed aside after a few bites. I tried the chips myself and can understand why the kids pushed them aside which is a shame as they place is really well set up for kids with a large play area behind the beer garden. perhaps the person on the fryer wasn't on their game which would explain the three quarters of an hour it took our meal to be ready after ordering.
E. p.
Went there today (sunday) for lunch. Good atmosphere and kids play ground. But meals took way to long 1 hour and 15 mins just for a entree. My kids were starving. Ended up cancelling my main get getting my money back because of such a long wait..
P. W.
The place has bad service and the food is average with cheap furniture but somehow it has a good feel about it and a good kids play area so we keep going back. Would love for the kitchen and staff in general to step it up a bit.
J. O.
Had lunch here awhile ago and one staff member took the time to come to our table and tell us the kitchen would be closings in 20 mins if we were ordering food, if she hadn't of told us we may have missed out on lunch, so we were really happy with the service, food was delicious and generous portions as well. Very popular hotel, would definitely go back again.
L. M.
Just a short drive from Brisbane will get you to this very popular venue. Excellent meals . You probably need to book your table if intending to sit in comfort to eat .
J. D.
$10 pizza night was terrific. Good pizzas, amazing value for our family. Not my favorite atmosphere with Keno going in the background.
S. B.
Vibrant, well established, busy venue. Bistro menu simple but done well. Very family oriented with awesome kids facilities. Must book Sundays.
B. E.
Fantastic venue with all the best facilities. Great food and service. Highly recommended.
T. W.
Amazing food. Fantastic friendly staff. Nice atmosphere provided by the live music at the pub across the road. Pitty the decor is a bit dated and the tables were dirty. But overall good experience.

Great food and service and we made sure our dog was covid safe

Went for a quick drink on an afternoon and dump the kids in the playground. The kids playground could do with some work and more toys. Both gates are broken and there was a total of 5 broken toys so not great for the kid part but the beer was cold.
A. L.
Food is so generous and delicious. Great menu, great atmosphere and great for families

Great food, great service, smiles everywhere. A total recommend. Five stars triple A +
j. f.
Nice old country pub with a nice outdoor beer garden I had the rump steak and vegetables cooked really well and a nice cut off meat the only thing I could complain about if I was being picky was the steak was a bit small but still give it a 5
J. I.
Had our 25th wedding anniversary celebration there last Sunday lunchtime. It was awesome, the staff were so helpful. We had the use of the lovely function area out the back as we had a party of about 60 and we were allowed to decorate it and arrange it as we wished. The food was amazing! And the service was the best. It was so good some of my friends - who have special events coming up - have asked us about it. Seriously could not rave more.... thank you from Kevin and Charlotte to Samford Valley Hotel for a very memorable 25th anniversary!
I. B.
Special trip out to Samford Valley to have lunch with my family. Upon recommendations we chose the Hotel. It is a lovely welcoming place and has a great spot for the kids to be entertaine. It wasn't a busy day yet we were disappointed with our mesls. The pizza was definitely not woodfired as advertised - the base was soggy and tasteless. The chickrn burger was more a chicken roll...pre-packed and straight out of the fridge. Every single part was cold. Lovely bar staff just a poor meal.
D. M.
Very unassuming from the front, quite big in back. Food was fantastic, great environment and play area for the kids, and friendly staff.
J.
Friendly staff and very child friendly with a great outdoor play area. The outdoor undercover seating area is quite nice with lots of plants. Unfortunately the food is terrible.
I. B.
Prawn taco was nice and good size for starter. They should prob take the tail off though.
Tesla charging for you Tesla peeps.
J. H.
The pizza we shared for lunch was ample and tasty. Beer range is pretty good. Lots of pleasant outdoor seating.
J. S.
Visited here to drop the kids off at the pool. Great facilities freshley painted. Had a scooey of lemonade too. Freshly poured from the tap, just beaitiful gorgeous texture. Pokies were going off like the Hoff. Will definetly vist again 10/10 .
J. R.
Seems the waitress staff taking food orders know nothing about allergens even tho i say i cant have dairy and asking if there is dairy in any of the meal she had no clue..
M. S.
Great pub for a family lunch. Pricing is very good for the amount of food you get. One of the best play areas for kids I've seen in a local pub.
K. A.
meals and services are awesome definitely recommend
G. J.
Always great food
S. W.
Had an amazing salad bowl at here with cozzy atmosphere..friendly staffs and locals🙂
S. T.
Standard pub grub. Pizzas aren’t bad when half price on a Tuesday. Try and sit in the back though unless you enjoy being yelled at by the not funny trivia host.
A. G.
Family hotel with wide ranging menu. Kids play area at rear. Good place for family eats. Thought it was pricey but food quality good. Veryfriendly staff. Will return.
L. D.
Such a cruisy pub. I always stop in there when I'm on a bike ride. Staff seem genuinely happy to work there, the tunes are good, there's a piano you can play, and the beer is cold. What more could you want?
A. N.
Food is always good and portions large. Too large if anything! Huge play area for kids. Seating is a bit basic but comfortable.
M. R.
I always go there when in Samford at lunchtime. A good place for a nice steak or roast and a wine. There are also other choices available. Friendly staff and tasty reasonably priced food make it perfect for me.
M. P.
Great food, ambience and cold beer. Perfect for a late lunch.
M. A.
Nice vibe, food was quite expensive, quite busy and not the regulated space
D. M.
The food, as always, was outstanding and the servings HUGE. Service has slipped a little and the kids fort needs a shade cloth.
E.
Great food, cheap prices and good play space for the kids. Weekly specials look awesome

Omg, meals were huge and yummy, great service from staff. Win win gorgeous place to visit 😌. Samford.
M. R.
When I head out for a quik ride, I go through Dayboro, then the roads to Samford, € stop for a feed & a drink. Lunchtime menu is reasonable, tastes good, salad is proper salad, (not just rocket leaves). The little bread roll is moreish, & they make a great lemon, lime, & bitters. If you sit out the front at lunch, you can kick back & watch the different motorcycles go past if you are that way inclined. A Quik edit: Menu has changed abit, but the salad is better than before, & before was good. Great job guys! Makes waiting for a Friday lunch worth it that little bit more.
O.
Great family atmosphere, big playground for kids and also some half decent beers on tap. Food is a little pricey but the portions are big.
P. S.
Nice spot, great live music and good food.
G. E.
Food was nice, though it took a while to cook because we were there on a very busy day (Mother's Day). Still, it's certainly an above-average pub food experience.
L. S.
Great atmosphere and food. Kids got to run around in shaded playground.
A. H.
A classic Australian pub in the heart of Samford Valley. Great place to have a quiet beer or to go for a meal with friends and family. Probably one of my favourite pubs in Australia and for good reason.

Had dinner at the Samford. Menu is very basic. Had a chicken parmy and good serving size. It was clean and staff friendly.
P. S.
Pizza was really good, but the rest of the menu was not really pub food. Trying to be to fancy with a price tag attached. Good for a cold beer.

Nice pub, good for dinner, massive meal sizes... Oh and they have a Tesla charger...

Nice food, but a bit pricey. Bring back the pub lunch specials Mon-Fri.

Samford Hotel has a simple but tasty menu and a spacious kids area out the back. They do a nice steak and the beers are cold.

Enjoyed sitting in the late afternoon sun on their deck sipping a wine after a walk in the hills. A good place to debrief before heading back to the mill.

Food is usually great but not on 1/2 price pizza nights I would rather pay full price and get a better and great pizza. 1/2 price means 1/2 topping😔Service is good.
