Burrawang Hotel Beer Garden
Recently I visited a pub for lunch with a fabulous view. We sat inside by a wood burning fire, in the pub’s bistro. The bistro was a large open room displaying a grand vista of a rural landscape, complete with a couple of horses nearby. To sit outside would have been quite delightful. There was a large verandah, as well as some tables and chairs in the pub grounds. Even if not sitting outside the large glass windows and doors brought the outside in. We sat there for an extremely leisurely lunch enjoying the warmth of the fire and our scenic surrounds. If a pub is lucky enough to have a position offering a natural surrounding beauty as part of its beer garden, as this one did, there is one less thing to work at to make it a great pub, or a favourite pub.
However a beer garden doesn’t have to be scenic to lure one into a state of comfort or enjoyment. Over the years I’ve sat in many a beer garden, both in cities and in country towns, that I think have often been the making of the pubs. Pubs, not only surrounded by paddocks or bush and abundant bird life, but with numerous umbrella’s, tables and chairs in a confined area, abuzz with people enjoying the experience.
A beer garden where one can enjoy the warmth of the spring sun, or shade from the summer heat along with a cold refreshing drink, can be enjoyed as much in a small courtyard, a verandah or a meandering garden setting as a beer garden with majestic views.
At certain times of the year an outdoor area is obviously a bonus, but as much as I enjoyed the comfortable and scenic environment I was lunching in recently, it is more than the view that makes a pub a great one.
Burrawang Easter Markets are held each year on Easter Saturday. The market has over 130 stalls including locally produced products and produce. A diverse range of food is available. The Burrawang pub is open and there is entertainment galore to amuse both kids and adults alike.
It is held between 9am and 3pm on Hoddle Street and Crown Streets Burrawang

The quiet picturesque village of Burrawang is preparing for its biggest day of the year. Annually Burrawang hosts the Burrawang Easter Markets, an event that attracts thousands of people on the day.
Last night the local pub, the Burrawang Hotel was abuzz. Most of the village and other highlands locals came to enjoy what is the regular Thursday night pizza night at the pub, as well as sea food raffles and the local Fishing Club’s seafood munchies put on the bar. I must say - best prawns I’ve had!
Good Friday is preparation day for the big day ahead. The quiet before the storm. But everyone loves it.

THE BURRAWANG HOTEL
Nestled in the lush green hills of the Southern Highlands about 2 hours south of Sydney is the little village of Burrawang where you will find the Burrawang Hotel.
The hotel was built in 1928 and has been owned and nurtured to its present high ranking by Ed and Julie Woolfrey for the last 16 years.
They are both hands on owners and this shows. Hospitality is the name of the game, and this couple have put together a winning combination of great tasting modern country food, and warm country hospitality.
Lunch time menu consists of burgers, soups, home made filo pies, and vegetarian dishes. Dinner menu varies and always includes a delicious roast.
The pub has been ‘touched up’ rather than refurbished, and still proudly boosts its age, but has the added features of beautiful scenic outdoor terraced seating, overlooking a view that the Highlands is reknowned for.
Inside, the lounge area has an open fireplace and comfortable lounges. The diningroom holds a true country ambiance, with a fire, and wooden tables with checkers games, and the bar sells some great local wines and beers.
For a glorious drive and a great outing not too far from the big smoke, try the Burrawang Hotel, and if you decide to stay they have both very comfortable hotel accomodation, as well as B&B style luxurious spa suites with spectacular views.
