Since 1887, our doors have been open, inviting you to be a part of a tradition that intertwines the past with the present. Our origins as the Clare Morris Hotel shine through in our commitment to preserving the Irish heritage that is so much a part of our story.
As you step inside, you’ll be greeted by an ambiance that exudes warmth and a sense of belonging. Our country pub-style menu is a tribute to the local, sustainable produce we proudly use, ensuring every dish from the hearty bangers and mash to the classic Aussie fish and chips is a culinary adventure.
The heart of our hotel is the beer garden, a vibrant space of lush greenery and lively atmosphere. Here, families and friends come together, sharing stories and laughs under the Trentham sun, with a backdrop of live music and the clinking of glasses.

Staff were very friendly and welcoming, our food was delicious and served in good time. Lovely relaxed atmosphere. Will definitely be coming back, thank youAndrew GloynsSeptember 23, 2024A lovely pub run by lovely people. One of my favourite local pubs. You’ll always find locals here which, for me, is a good sign! The staff are always incredibly kind and friendly and the food is consistently excellent. I like that they have both mainstream and local beers on tap as it’s great to be able to support local businesses. The beer garden is a great feature and even better when live music is playing. Can’t beat it on an sunny afternoon!Jacki SimminsSeptember 23, 2024Thank you so much for the amazing service, food and hospitality. The rearranging of the dining room to allow for our decorations, the extra tables moved in, the additional props such as the beer barrel and the stunning location and facilities all helped to make the space absolutely perfect to celebrate 90 years of a wonderful woman. Thanks for everything, very much appreciated.Jeanie MenziesSeptember 21, 2024The amazing service their young staff provide is exceptional. All the staff were lovely and professional but we were so impressed by the obviously younger staff. Whatever you are doing should be rolled out as a training lesson!Load more
