Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

If you're looking for a great Tex-Mex restaurant with a good selection of beers, drinks, and delicious food, Smithy's Tavern is definitely worth checking out. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, with a cozy interior that's perfect for a casual meal with friends. Speaking of...the food, Smithy's Tavern truly excels in this area. The Tex-Mex cuisine is authentic and flavorful, with a wide range of dishes to choose from. And if you're vegan, you'll be happy to know that there are plenty of options for you as well. But perhaps the best thing about Smithy's Tavern is the friendly and attentive service. The servers are knowledgeable about the menu and the drinks, and are always happy to make recommendations or answer any questions you might have. They truly go out of their way to make you feel welcome and ensure that you have a great dining experience.More

Staff were really good and the burger was nice. It was a bit dry and not the medium rare juicy patty that France normally do so well, but it was - nice. It was busy and they don’t take bookings so we put our name...down for a table and waited at the bar for an hour; which was fine. When we did get a table it was in the bar area, on high stools which was ok with us but It was a bit annoying that people who came in after us got seated at the more comfortable dining tables.More

Hats off to the Smithys team. Been coming here years and last year just didn’t work out …. However been twice this year already and you have taken note of the criticism and smashed it out of the park. Service has been great - really...friendly and helpful staff - big shout out to Flora who looked after our table. The food was very tasty and good size portions. Fantastic atmosphere for the rugby and fast service from the bar. Well done everyone. We are back in April and will be coming back again.More

Be it scran or beverages this place has you covered. With 11/10 food and the staff to match you won’t be disappointed. A management team that’ll leave you wishing you’d asked for their number and a drinks menu that will never have you thirsty. I...cannot recommend this place enough and above all else, they’re not Crystal Ski.More
