What's the name for that space between your average pub and a gastro-pub? The Westernport fits right in there, whatever the name of it is. It's that space filled by cracking parmas, made from a real chicken breast and home made Napoli. Real James Squire beer batter. The BEST lamb shank getting around. A stand-out 'wow, i didn't expect to find that on a menu in a place like this' kind of dish (some inside info - try out our Specials Board, it really IS something special...). So whatever that space is called, that's where The Westernport sits. Real chicken and no pomp.
