The Bearded Woodpecker in Betoota’s French Quarter district has this week been praised for a landmark move.
In what is hoped will inspire a generation of a change, the popular watering hole has decided to start offering decently price pub roasts.
Leaning in to the institution that is a Sunday roast, the local independently owned pub has decided to make an offer people can’t refuse.
20 dollar Sunday roasts.
Pork, Lamb, Chicken.
Big healthy serving of veges with a little teapot of gravy.
Nothing too fancy, but 20 bucks.
Speaking to The Advocate one local man who enjoyed the deal, says he’s pretty happy to make it a ritual.
“Mate, I don’t give a shit about red wine jus,” laughed Brett Doolan today.
“A good honest roast, nothing to extra, and a great price.”
“I endeavour to go back every single Sunday I can.”
“Early dinner, watch the footy, Bob’s your uncle.”
It’s a promise that publican Phil Lung is keen to take up.
“Yeah look, we aren’t making the biggest margins, but at least it might become a thing.”
“Other than hoping for people to come in and pay 40 dollars for a meal, that at that price, gets you a good feed at a legit restaurant.”
“So we’ll just whack a fuck load of roasts on and hope they come.”
More to come.
