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.

Visited Murray's Irish Pub for a family birthday.
Had last eat there about 5 years ago for another birthday outing.
Our table ordered:
fish & chips (huge fillet of lovely fresh fish)
Steak & Guinness pie & chips (a bloke sized pie)
200gm eye fillet wrapped in bacon (perfectly cooked to medium rare)
500gm Ribeye steak (cooked exactly how the recipient wanted it- well done)
All meals were very generous sizes and nicely presented.
The staff were polite, friendly and helpful.
All in all a very enjoyable evening, will definitely come back again :-)

We thoroughly enjoyed are lunch we friends on Tuesday 25 May. We think Murray’s $ 12 lunches are great value and there is a pleasing range to choose from. We followed that with desserts and coffee.
It was our third visit to Murray’s and it is always a pleasant experience. The staff are very competent and helpful. Hard to fault.

We love going there to dine usually on a Monday evening when it's a bit quieter, although we dined on a Wednesday it was packed but the atmosphere was great and our waitress was tops. Food and service is AMAZING. Love the prawn starter and the steak is always cooked to perfection. Our date place đź’Ż

Waited over an hour for our meal, (when we ordered not many in the restaurant), people came in after us and received their meals first. The hot meals were either served with just lettuce and carrot, called a salad, or no vegetables at all except for powdered potatoes and gravy, 2 of us had the lamb shanks, 1 bangers and mash, 1 steak. The meals had no flavour to them very bland. For the cost was very disappointing. Was ignored at the bar when went to pay. Nearly walked out.Will not come back

It was a great experience. They had a short staffed sign up and were clearly very very busy and apologetic for wait times. However our meal came out in with little waiting. The seafood chowder is full of so of chunky pieces of fish, large prawns and a meal on its own. A great tender lamb shank and a yummy open steak sandwich. We will be back.

There were 7 people at our table. We ordered within 15 minutes, then it took another 60 minutes for our food to arrive, a little longer for the steak. They didn’t let us know it was going to be such a long wait and we had to enquire as to how much longer. Then when it finally arrived it would have been nice to apologise about the long wait. They were busy but a little customer service goes a long way.
I had a burger, the chips were amazing but my burger (I ordered it bun less) came with no sauce which is said it did on the menu. Then they charged me for the sauce I got for the chips.
My friend got the pork belly and wasn’t impressed either.
We were so hungry by that point and running late we had to eat and run, no time for dessert.

Dear Frances, thank you for your feedback. Given you have left 1 star reviews for this on a couple of different formats, you were obviously disappointed. You are right, Saturday was a very busy night, and we were fully booked. Your original booking was for 6pm, for 6 people, and we had a lot of other tables booked at 6.15-6.30. Your order didn't go to the kitchen until 6.37, which was when a lot of other tables ordered. I When one of your group approached me and asked where your meals were, as you had to be elsewhere, I apologised, and prioritised that your meals come out asap. If we'd have know you had to be out quickly, we'd have done our best to rush your orders through.
I'm sorry you were disappointed with the meal you had. If you want, I can refund you the $1 you were charged for the aoili (this is not included in the meal - there's mustard and mayo on the bun, but you wanted yours without the bun).
After your meals were delivered the waitress checked that everything was OK, and was thanked.
Everyone came and paid at 7.47-7.48 and left, no-one complained at the time or perhaps I could have done something about it.
I'm sorry, again that you had a disappointing evening.

My wife and I traveled up from Wellington and booked here for my Dads birthday as it was local for him.
We were not greeted on arrival had to speak to bar staff who had poor service. Found our table situated out in a covered courtyard jammed up against another table of four basically sitting with the other table. Ordered meals X3 steaks which took 1.5hours to arrive with no communication by staff or table service for drinks during our wait. I had to go to the bar and ask for drinks, when i enquired about our meals i was told it's not their side tonight they were on the bar. When the steaks arrived mine was medium not rare the other two were fine. Lucky my Dad enjoyed his and i was not going to wait a further while so they could cook me a new steak. No meal check by staff during our meals. Totally disappointed by Staff/Service/ Environment. All round bad experience. I don't leave reviews often only if its great service and Murray's you failed on our visit please retrain your staff bring experience back to your service.

Excellent service always. Fish n chips are great. Fish is fresh chips are crunchy. Crumbed or crispy prawns have been soggy 5/7 times that ive had them. Maybe dry the prawns before you crumb them. Other wise love this place.

We tried for quite a while to get a booking here after lock down and the expansion. Murrays was always a friendly pub with consistently good food. Not so much this time. Our meals were bland and, sitting in the new area, got a blast of cold air every time someone went through the sliding doors. One might have thought that they would review access arrangements during inclement weather. bring back the old days.

With a cosy and good atmosphere, Murrays has good food and good value. Their extension is really good, my family love to go and dine in the booths. It would be really helpful to have a waiter at the door to direct you to your seat- the guy at the bar isn't great at this. A nice family restaurant- will definitely be back again and again.

Thank you for such a lovely meal. There were 7 of us and we were all more than happy with our meals. The service was very friendly and the staff went out of their way to ensure the gluten free member of our party was well looked after. Highly recommend this place for a good hearty meal.

Steak was really great, place was very busy when we arrived. Staff was very friendly and recommended a good wine.
Unfortunately we went to an Irish Pub. But absolutely no Irish music being played, even when we asked for it!

Fish and chips and a vegan burger. The burger was actually well executed, perhaps a little on the large side, but is pub grub after all.
Excellent battered fish. Knocked off a star as we were charged $10 for a Soda water and a diet Coke.

Have previously had a disappointing experience here and have not been back for a while until deciding to give it another try since their expansions. Have been back several times since. The food is better than average and very good value for money. The service is with a smile and the Guiness is good. The ambiance is pleasant. We will be regulars once more.

Murray's is even better now with a new extension..... lots of room, but still cosy, and it continues to sell great food. Nice atmosphere, and very reasonably priced in comparison to some other eateries in Feilding further down the road on the right. Would highly recommend for a fun night out, and check out their band nights too. Can't believe the one star review before mine - I'm thinking they did not go to the same bar!
