About

One of Geelong's oldest pubs, Sawyers Arms Tavern has been a Newtown institution since 1850 — affectionately known to locals as 'Clats'. Two warm dining rooms with open fireplaces, a welcoming front bar, and outdoor areas make it a go-to for any occasion. Upstairs, Two Noble is a Chef's Hat–awarded Asian fine dining restaurant, and next door Eileen's is widely regarded as one of Geelong's best steak restaurants. The kitchen focuses on fresh, seasonal and local produce — an Express Lunch offers two courses plus coffee or tea.
