GOOD FOOD, COLD BEER & WARM SMILES.

Welcome to The Fernhill Tavern — or as the locals call it, The Ferny (because we’re on a first-name basis with everyone).

Tucked away in sunny Port Macquarie, we’ve perfected the art of after-work beers, belly laughs and classic pub feeds that hit the spot every time. We’re not fancy. We’re not fussy. But we are the place where cold drinks flow, schnitzels are the size of your head and everyone knows your beer order by the second visit. Pop in once, and you'll wonder why you ever went anywhere else.

For every footy fan, there's nothing quite like the atmosphere of Grand Final day... and this August, you could be there in person!

Purchase a selected schooner during August and you'll go into the draw to WIN:
🏉 2 tickets to the 2026 NRL Grand Final
🏨 1 night's accommodation at Pullman Sydney Olympic Park

Imagine being there as 80,000 passionate fans pack the stadium, the pre-game entertainment lights up the stage and the best two teams in the competition battle it out for premiership glory. It's an experience most rugby league supporters only dream about.

Whether you're cheering on your team or simply soaking up the electric atmosphere, this is a prize you'll never forget. You've got to be in it to win it, so grab your mates, enjoy a beer and you could be heading to one of the biggest sporting events on the Australian calendar.
