Why it's worth checking out
The Premier Hotel presents itself as a long-running local pub, with the website dating the venue to 1891. Its core offer combines a bistro serving modern Australian pub food with a sports bar, functions, entertainment and budget accommodation. It is also promoted as a place for live sport, including major sporting events, UFC and Main Event screenings.
The venue’s sports focus is balanced by more relaxed spaces. The beer garden includes a pool table and is positioned as a place to meet friends before a Knights game. Regular entertainment includes DJ sets across the week, while raffles and Joker Poker feature on Thursdays and Fridays. The site also lists weekday and Sunday happy-hour schooners, with the timing varying by day.
This makes the pub a practical choice for sports fans, groups meeting for a drink, and visitors seeking straightforward pub dining or budget accommodation in the Newcastle area. Functions are catered for, and the combination of a bistro, sports bar, beer garden and regular events gives the venue several ways to spend an evening rather than limiting it to a meal. The supplied website identifies it as the Broadmeadow venue, while the directory listing places it in Pokolbin, Newcastle.
