Signature favorites and customer-praised dishes at Drouin Family Hotel

  • Lamb roast

    Lamb roast was just as it should be. All the vegies and the lamb crumbling on the plate. No knife needed.

    Jeff H

  • Pork ribs

    I had the pork ribs. The meal was huge. The price of it is worth every penny. The meat fell off the bone and the flavour of the ribs, spicy and smokey.

    Peter

  • Nasi Goreng

    I had the Nasi Goering which was really good. A great place to eat if you have Coeliac Disease
