Updated 22 May 2026

Webster's Bar offers a more casual, low-key setting downstairs, with air conditioning and a concrete floor that make it comfortable for dogs, especially on warmer days. It's a simple setup that works well for a relaxed visit.

The location near Newtown Square means there's plenty of foot traffic nearby, particularly if you're seated toward the front.

Great rooftop bar and food options including Gluten Free for anyone who is Coeliac. This bar has three levels and is easy to access, being so close to the Newtown train station. The Peri Peri Burger, Falafel Burger and Atlantic Salmon were all wonderful. Perfect sized portions for my family friends and I. Dog friendly spot, too, and not very busy on a Monday so a good option if you want a quiet spot on a non peak day. My only problem is the bathroom situation on the top outdoor rooftop section. The bathroom was disgusting on a quiet Monday and there was pee all over the toilet seats. The bathroom is a shared men's and women's so ladies beware of this really vile choice. Also the taps are awful and difficult to turn on/off if you aren't quite strong. You also get a nice blast of water on you from the water pressure and the strange sink to tap distance. Besides that gross bathroom, we had a great time here.

Nice atmosphere, rooftop is a good place on a Sunday afternoon. However their jug size is different to every other pub in Australia. Instead of getting the equivalent of 3 schooners it’s more like 2 and a 1/3, despite charging the same price as other, normal jug size, pubs. When we asked the bar staff about this they rattled off numerous sizes of schooners, jugs, standard pours, etc, so it seems like they get this complaint often.

Great venue, atmosphere & food. We had 30 people in attendance. Staff were absolutely amazing. Highly recommend for a function or just chilling

The staff were exceptional. The chicken schnitzel stood out thanks to its incredible “parmy” topper, which added a unique and delicious twist to a classic dish. Outstanding work!

Always a go to when out in Newtown and it never disappoints. The rum cocktails were delicious and the bar staff were friendly. Plenty of seating with three levels to explore but we settled in on level 2. Food options also available here if you want something with your drink 🍸
