Harrigan’s Irish Pub is in the Pokolbin area of the Hunter Valley in NSW. Nestled among some of the best food and wine outlets in this famous region, Harrigan’s offers the perfect setting to relax after a hard day of nibbling and swilling.
In contrast to the mediterranean styled fare that is synonymous with wine, Harrigan’s offers hearty English and Irish based meals. Pizzas (with toppings such as black pudding), schnitzels, pies and steaks dominate the menu. Prices are quite reasonable and the servings are enormous. Kids meals were fairly basic and also included a drink and ice cream for dessert.
We visited on a weekend and the pub was alive with activities and entertainment for all ages. Outside there was a jumping castle and play area for the younger children. Live music played in the beer garden and there were a number of large screens in the sports bar with most football codes getting a run, along with the racing. Of course there were Keno and TAB outlets as well.
After spending the morning in cruising the cheese, chocolate, wine, ice cream and cured meat outlets, Harrigan’s was the perfect place to relax and enjoy lunch. The only problem was that we couldn’t get motivated again after the big lunch and ale chaser. Thankfully the children were equally worn out and we retired to our accommodation for the afternoon.
