About Herdsman Lake Tavern

Locals head to the Herdy for relaxed pub hospitality where generous feeds pair with sanity-saving perks for families. An indoor playground and dedicated colouring tables keep young kids occupied while adults linger over cold pints and classic staples. The kitchen plates up solid tavern benchmarks—crispy chicken parmis, tender lamb shanks, and a classic steak sandwich stacked on toasted sourdough. Younger diners get their own balanced bento-style grazing platters packed with fruit, veggies, cheese, and a chocolate frog in jelly.

  • Indoor Play Area: A dedicated indoor play space and colouring tables keep little ones occupied throughout the meal.
  • Bento Grazing Boxes: Kids meals come styled as balanced bento grazing platters featuring fresh fruit, veg, and treats.
  • Generous Pub Staples: Plates lean hearty with reliable tavern staples, from tender lamb shanks to loaded parmis and steak sandwiches.

  • Nutritious Bento Grazing Plates

    Kids' meals are presented as varied grazing bento platters featuring balanced snacks and fresh sides alongside their main selection.

    However this kids meal was excellent - a recyclable bento plate with lettuce, cucumber, tomato, hard boiled egg, juice, sultana box, cheese and a frog in a pond, that is on top of the kids meal of your choice.
