Bartholomew’s bar

Behind the bar, a towering ladder wall holds one of Australia’s largest collections of whisky, gin and spirits.

Alongside it sits an expansive wine list featuring celebrated Australian producers, European classics and carefully selected bottles from around the world. Add a cocktail list regarded among Newcastle’s best, and there is something for every kind of drinker, from a perfectly made martini to a rare dram or a bottle worth lingering over.
