Town Hall Hotel reviews
5 Star Review by Ally Duff
Such a nice classic pub! Was quiet and clean, staff and patrons were friendly and food was soooo good. I had the calamari and it's definitely in my top 5 I've ever had, while my friend enjoyed the wings. Portion sizes were just what we were expecting for these meals, something a bit lighter than a main meal. Definitely want to come back!
5 Star Review by Sophie A
Great spot for lunch and drinks. Good location right near the train station in Newtown. Nice rooftop bar and outdoor area. The food is awesome. Decent menu with all the classic pub feed options. On Sundays they do $15 jugs and $14 burgers so it's the perfect spot for a Sunday lunch.

Haven't visited here for ages. But felt at home straight away. Loads of tasty beer options plus all your favourite bevies. Menu looks awesome. Happy hour every day. A great live music venue. Highly recommend.
5 Star Review by Daniel Tissot
I went for a Christmas gathering last week and was impressed by this place. The upstairs seats and lounge spaces are comfortable and cosy. The highlight though was the food, it was delicious and caters for all tastes including some vegan dishes. The staff are friendly and the happy hour is a great plus.
4 Star Review by Joseph Restubog
Loved the wings and wedges (Wednesday deal). Buffalo wings pretty good - that's coming from an American expat. Service and ambience could have been better. An update to the decor and happier staff, or perhaps service with a more personal touch - *though they did take care of us when a Long Island jug got mixed up with our individual cocktail order.

Great to see free live music. And some unusual music to boot that was very cool late on Saturday night the 7th Jan 2023
