About the Business
Welcome to the Union Hotel Newtown, located at 576 King Street. Our establishment is a bar, restaurant, and point of interest all rolled into one. With our convenient operating hours, we are open Monday to Thursday from 10am to 11pm, Friday to Saturday from 10am to 1am, and Sunday from 10am to 10pm. On Sundays, Mondays, and Tuesdays, we close at 10pm, while on Wednesdays to Saturdays, we stay open until midnight.
At the Union Hotel, we cater to both adults and families. If you are visiting with children, we kindly request that you book a spot in our back bar, as our front bar is exclusively for grown-ups. We have recently transformed our venue to showcase a world-class back bar and restaurant, while still maintaining the unique and homely character that the pub has always been known for.
Our front bar is perfect for groups, featuring large bench seats where you can enjoy a game of pool, watch sports on our plasma screens, or listen to live and local music. In contrast, our light-filled back area offers a more sophisticated and relaxed dining experience. With cocktail lounges and heated courtyards, this space is ideal for intimate dinners, business lunches, or even a family feast.
When it comes to food, our eatery, Big Arties, offers great value pub fare that caters to everyone's taste. Our menu features a fine balance of meat-heavy meals, fresh salads, and delicious vegetarian options. Drawing inspiration from the great diners of Chicago and New York, we serve a variety of Australian and American themed sandwiches and burgers. We are constantly evolving our menu and appreciate any feedback or suggestions you may have.
One of our highlights is our amazing selection of beers. The Union Hotel boasts an impressive 22 taps, with a rotating list that includes every beer on and off the spectrum. Our friendly and knowledgeable staff are always happy to guide you through the world of craft beer. In fact, in 2015 alone, we had over 300 different brews on tap. If gin is more your style, we also have an extensive list of 24 gins, dominated by Australian distillers. Additionally, we offer 35 whiskies for those who prefer a different spirit.
As a hub for craft beer enthusiasts, the Union Hotel is well-known for hosting beer parties and events. From Sydney Beer Week to monthly tap takeovers featuring rare and beautiful brews from all over Australia and the world, we are always celebrating the art of beer. Our 22 taps play host to over 420 different brews each year, bringing people together for all the right reasons.
In addition to our bar and restaurant, we also feature a well-stocked Bottleshop. Whether you are looking for a special bottle of wine, some cold beers for a BYO restaurant, or beverages for your next social gathering or office party, our Bottleshop has you covered. We stock a great range of local and imported wines, popular beers, mixers, and spirits. Moreover, we offer an organic range of wines from the Hunter Valley and Cowra regions.
To complete your experience at the Union Hotel, we regularly host live shows by some of the finest talent in the local and national music scene. So come on down to the Union, where great food, an impressive beer selection, live music, and a devoted local fan base await you.

Reviews
"Best pub in the area for craft beer, constantly rotating range on tap. Excellent friendly staff, and pretty good food options too. Beer garden is dog friendly during the day (no dogs allowed after sunset)."
"Good spot still really affordable food … $22 beef salad and $30 a big plate of ribs … kids meals decent $11, beer cold and varied … surprisingly easy to park on a public holiday Sunday in Sydney"
"Great pub for a drink, time with friends or not. I was here for a Mountain Culture tap takeover. That was great, loads of great beer. Had some nibbles as well. Chicken wings and fried calamari. The wings were over cooked, and the sauce was very tasty. The calamari was great, very tender. Definitely a place to check out if you are in the area and fancy a drink. Check what's on, to make sure you are there for an event."
"Fantastic venue if you love craft beer and pub style food. The tap selection is one of the best in Sydney and the kitchen does pub food extremely well. Front bar is great for sport's and the bistro bar has a good atmosphere"
"Visiting a friend for an hour or so and decided to nip into the Union Hotel for a couple of cold beers and an early lunch. Situated in a busy hub of inner city activity. Loads of traffic but off street parking away from the Main Street and also public transport make it accessible and easy to get to from anywhere and everywhere. Beer prices match most if not all inner city pubs and the chicken wings with hot sauce was very well made and delicious. Pricy but again there’s the option not to eat. So you get what you want when you ask for it. Pool tables and lots of seating with booths, table top square for foursomes and raised round bar tables and barstools for singles and or couples. Union Hotel wasn’t busy but enough trade to give it a nice calm inner city vibe. Outside is a semi-covered area for drinking, smoking and vaping. There is also an extended dining area as well as well as a pokies area just off to the right of the main bar. Pleasant, clean with easy going and friendly staff with a selection of traditional good pub food including a diverse beer selection."
