What customers say?

“ We had a terrific sharing meat platter for dinner, fun with kids. Good mid week specials $15 Chicken Parma Tuesday & $25 Steak night Thursday look good. We’ve also had nice breakfast and coffee here with an Al fresco area good for dogs ”

“ I absolutely love The Rubber Duck! The meat boards are out of this world – so delicious, generous, and beautifully put together. You can really taste the love that goes into them. What touched me the most though was the kindness of the owner and the waitress. They make you feel so welcome, like you’re part of the family, and that kind of warmth is rare to find these days. Great food, beautiful energy, and even better people. Can’t wait to go back! ”

“ Had a great experience sharing the butchers block with my friends. There were 7 of us and we were all full at the end of it! I particularly enjoyed the beef short ribs and brisket, very tender and flavourful. Steaks were cooked perfectly medium. The miso glazed potatoes were a great accompaniment to the meal, it didn’t outshine the meats yet were great in its own right. Crispy on the outside and perfectly tender on the inside. We even ordered a second serve of it and it was all completely gone at the end. Great service from the staff including the owner himself! They took the time to explain the food and threw in free garlic bread - which is an absolute must have with the meal! We went there on a Monday night and the atmosphere was perfect because we can all talk comfortably over the course of the meal around the big table. I would definitely come back again. ”
