The Courthouse Hotel – Dog Friendly Pub in Newtown NSW
The Courthouse Hotel, affectionately known as “The Courty,” is a beloved Newtown institution located at 202 Australia Street, just a short stroll from the vibrant King Street. Established in the 19th century, this heritage pub has long been a favourite meeting place for locals, students, artists, and visitors alike.
Renowned for its laid-back charm and community spirit, The Courty offers one of Newtown’s most spacious and picturesque beer gardens — a leafy, sun-drenched courtyard perfect for relaxing with friends, enjoying a cold beer, and soaking up the atmosphere. The venue is proudly dog-friendly, welcoming pups throughout the premises, with water bowls provided and plenty of opportunities for furry friends to socialise. Its proximity to the off-leash area at Camperdown Memorial Rest Park makes it a popular stop for dog owners before or after a park visit.
Inside, the pub blends rustic character with a lively, inclusive vibe. The walls pay tribute to its Australia Street location with a large coat of arms, an Aussie flag, and memorabilia celebrating its strong Sydney Swans supporter base. On game days, the venue comes alive with fans watching AFL matches live and loud.
The Courty’s bistro serves classic pub fare done well, with favourites such as the Courty Burger, chicken parmigiana, and its much-loved nachos — available in vegetarian and vegan options. The drinks list features a rotating selection of craft beers, including the locally brewed “Newtowner,” alongside wines, cocktails, and non-alcoholic options.
Regular events keep the atmosphere buzzing, from weekly trivia and games nights to live music and seasonal celebrations. Whether you’re after a casual midweek lunch, a weekend catch-up in the garden, or a lively evening of sport and entertainment, The Courthouse Hotel delivers a quintessential Newtown pub experience — relaxed, welcoming, and full of character.
