90 Second Statement - Huntlee Tavern
09 November 2022
Mr REPACHOLI (Hunter) (13:42): The annual AHA New South Wales Awards for Excellence are the pinnacle of the hospitality industry's event calendar. The awards recognise the best venues in the industry in a range of categories, from best experience to best food to best entertainment. The winners were recently announced. The Hunter electorate is proud to say that one of our very own—the Huntlee Tavern at Huntlee—was named as the best live music venue with some of the best DJs, bands and soloists entertaining the crowds every week.
The world's best establishments, restaurants, bars and bistros are located in the Hunter region, and this just goes to prove it. Throughout my campaign I visited many restaurants, cafes and bistros, and lots of burger places as well, across the Hunter region and I can undoubtedly say that the Huntlee Tavern is one of the best across-the-board. It definitely left its mark with me. The people of the Hunter deserve world-class facilities, and this is one of them. There's no doubt about that.
I congratulate Jason and the team at Huntlee Tavern on this award. The Hunter is so proud of you and this achievement. I can't wait to drop in for a celebratory schooner or two.
