A brewbar built around fresh beer, relaxed food and the easy character of the Hunter Valley. Take a seat in the beer garden during happy hour and enjoy the classics done right. Think wood‑fired style pizza, hearty burgers, golden schnitzel, Sydney Brewery beer‑battered fish and chips, and crisp salads, plus kids’ meals – simple, satisfying dining.
Fresh beer and cider poured straight from the tanks, with local wines and seasonal cocktails alongside. Good beer, good food, good vibes. Everyone’s welcome – resort guests and locals alike.

At Sydney Brewery Hunter Valley we source our beer from the filtered Hunter Valley water, giving our brewers a blank canvas to create a vast range of beers from Lagers and Pale Ales to rich Porters. Four dedicated serving vessels serve the Lovedale Brewbar directly from the brewery with rotating seasonal beers and ciders accompanying our core range.
The darling of the Lovedale Brewbar is our Lager. A traditional Munich-style lager with a Lovedale flair, it combines three types of German hops to create a smooth citrus aroma complimented by a slightly toasted malt backbone. A perfect pairing for the lighter dishes in our restaurant, Lovedale Lager evokes the verdant hills of Lovedale. At Sydney Brewery Hunter Valley, we pour every pint with pride, knowing that we refuse to compromise on the quality of our raw materials and process.
