It's Open! Harrigan's Cameron Park

More than a year under construction and 15 years in planning, Lake Macquarie/Newcastle’s newest pub, located in the rapidly expanding Cameron Park, has opened to patrons with a full weekend of entertainment.

A contemporary Australian “pub” style with an industrial aesthetic, Harrigan’s boast expansive interior spaces, three bars and wide verandahs that bring a new level of sophistication to Newcastle’s flourishing pub scene.

The one-level premises are designed around an impressive central atrium/entry foyer anchoring two long wings, each with high vaulted ceilings to accentuate the feeling of space, and a double-sided open fireplace adds warmth and character to an interior that is dotted with long, easy-access bars replete with multi-tap beer fonts (18 varieties) alongside an extensive selection of wines and spirits, many from local producers.

The arrival of Harrigan’s brings to fruition keenly felt local expectations from the rapidly growing community, which has been devoid of a facility such as this until now.

“We are genuinely excited to be bringing this new iconic pub to Cameron Park and are sure the patrons will adopt it as their local… a community pub which will be a place for family and friends to gather and make memories,” said Roche Group Pub Operations Manager Nic Barnett.

“Our menu is focused on providing our patrons with excellent pub food, highlighting locally sourced produce. We have invested in an Italian pizza oven and offer delicious chef-prepared meals across our extensive menu. While enjoying the wide range of beer, wine and spirits, guests can avail themselves of our entertainment experience with live music in a designated lounge at the northern end of the building.

“We have an indoor/outdoor children’s play area, including a fantastic mural by well-known Newcastle artist Mitch Revs. “

Three giant screens are situated in both the Sports and Terrace Bars to provide visitors with an immersive experience and will be broadcasting all the footy finals on the big screen; full TAB facilities are available inside the premises.

The multi-million-dollar development is the first new pub in the Newcastle/Lake Macquarie region for over 20 years and boasts state-of-the-art facilities.
