“It’s the pub on the corner, where you leave your day at the door. The food’s tasty, yet not pricey. The drinks are cold and can be a little fancy. “The Duke” as it’s affectionately known… where you’ll be treated like part of the family”. – Well, that’s what Jacko said. Since 1876, The Duke of Wellington Hotel has been the hub of community spirit in New Lambton. It’s the spot for the tastiest lunch special, to watch the football or have a quick punt. The accommodation is clean and comfy with quirky shops in the village for you to explore. At The Duke Hotel in Lambton we are renowned locally for our warm welcoming atmosphere and delicious pub style meals. With a wide range of activities including a joker draw, pokies, a weekly members draw, raffles, TAB and a losing ticket draw, there is something for everyone at our Newcastle Pub. We have an onsite cafe where you can find a snack, light lunch, tea, coffee or a cold drink, or if you prefer something more substantial, our restaurant offers all the family favourites such as roasts, steak meals, fish and chips and the very popular chicken parmigiana.
