The staff are fantastic!

Just wanted to let you know what a lovely visit we had on Anzac Day. We’d been for coffee for the first time only the week before, so we took friends this time and had lunch. The staff are fantastic! Especially Lisa. Nothing is too much trouble. I’ve given a Google review but want to let you know how much we enjoyed it.

A wonderful dining experience

Just wanted to thank you directly for a great Valentine’s evening and was Lorraine’s Birthday two days earlier. The service was excellent with a really wonderful team spirit from all the staff. Food was excellent and was great value for money. Luckily we live nearby so will be back soon. Well done everyone for a wonderful dining experience.

What an experience!

WOW, what an experience it was to be with you on Sunday. River Haven had been recommended to us and we were blown away by it all. Magnificent setting, amazing English style upgrade of the restaurant, perfection of the grounds, including the Coffee bus, General Store and then those fantastic vintage cars. Huge kudos to you and your management. You made us feel so welcome and it was an absolute blast to drive out to you and experience it all.

A wonderful occasion

We would like to thank you all for the wonderful occasion that you put on for us yesterday. Even the kids couldn’t stop talking about it and trying hard to perfect the tooth pick and fork balancing act when we got home. We are looking forward to coming back.

A very enjoyable night

Just a huge thanks for making our night out at River Haven a very enjoyable one. Your disposition (and that of the other staff) contributed to our enjoyment as did the quality of the food and the atmosphere. As a result of the team’s effort River Haven will have recruited a group of regular customers.
