A few hundred metres past the park turn-off is this old country pub (1920), cooking up mixed grills, chicken dishes and steaks. The bartender shakes her head and says, ‘They love their meat round here…’. The bar scenes from the 2011 Willem Dafoe movie The Hunter were filmed here. Expect open fires, retro furniture and occasional live music.
