The Windmill Brewers Fayre

Head out towards Saint Leonards and you'll find The Windmill on John Macadam Way—a proper neighbourhood pub that doesn't pretend to be anything it isn't. It's the kind of place where you can actually hear yourself talk, grab a decent pint from their rotating selection, and not worry about your kids being the only ones in the room. The food is honest stuff: a solid fish and chips, burgers that won't embarrass you, and enough vegetarian options that nobody gets left out. It's busier on weekends but never feels overcrowded, and the staff know what they're doing.
