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.
