Overview
Harrigans Irish Pub & Accommodation

Harrigans Irish Pub is a phenomenon in itself, a piece of Ireland evoking all the great things you hear about Irish hospitality. The magic of Irish pubs is their heady blend of story-telling and chatter (the craic in Irish) the food, music, a good glass or two of the black stuff creamy topped Guinness or Murphys or a nip of a fine malt.

Harrigans is designed in authentic style using Irish designers and stylists to create the right atmosphere. The ceilings are decorated with Irish sayings and the rooms have just enough memorabilia to pluck at the heartstrings of anyone who has a touch of Irish blood in their veins. In the heart of the vineyards, Harrigan?s offers superb 4-star accommodation with a unique style. Spectacular gardens, vineyards and mountains surround 48 beautifully appointed guestrooms and suites, each with their own balcony or courtyard. Take time to relax around out heated swimming pool or perhaps try a wine or beer tasting in Harrigan?s Cellars. Voted Best Country Bottle Shop at the NSW Australian Hotels Association Awards for Excellence, 2005.

Theres usually some toe-tapping tune to be heard in the bars and, if you hear someone singing a familiar tune, it could well be Bill Roche who named the pub Harrigans after the song of the same name from the musical Yankee Doodle Dandy.

Harrigans all-day dining menu is structured so that you can order a la carte Irish dishes, or cook your own steaks and meats on the barbecue. The proof of the pudding is in the eating, as they say and Harrigan's other NSW Australian Hotels Association award was for Best Bistro-Country. Season daily blackboard specials also add to the choice. Seating options give customers the choice of indoor dining or enjoying the space and freedom outside, perfect for families.

Harrigans Cellars range includes over 130 varities of boutique and imported beers as well as spirits, local wines and the exclusive Roche Wines.

Adding a new dimension to accommodation in the Hunter, Harrigans has 48 4-star guestrooms including eight suites and two self-contained family units. All rooms have recently been refurbished. A swimming pool has also been added to the property for the enjoyment of in-house guests, making this a very attractive destination year-round. Conference facilities are also available here for those meetings that call for relaxed and convivial surroundings.
