You’ll need to be in on a few secrets to visit Coal & Cedar. This hidden speakeasy has no signage and no doorbell. Instead, you’ll need to text a special code to a number on the wall and a host will open the door and usher you inside. Rest assured, it’s worth the effort, having just won Best Regional bar in Australia 2016.Once inside, you’ll discover a moody, eclectic cocktail bar with an urban edge. Exposed brick walls and dark timber are complemented by dim lighting from vintage chandeliers. Holding fewer than 60 guests, it’s this old world ambience that sets Coal & Cedar apart from Newcastle’s bar scene.Ethan and Ryan are the team behind the venture. In 2014, they packed their bags and moved from Sydney to the state’s largest regional city to work on their new dream bar. They found the perfect site on Hunter Street, which was just dingy enough to house a Prohibition-style speakeasy. Transforming the space with taxidermy, eccentric images and many a bottle of booze.

    It may not look like much from the outside, but boy oh boy were we surprised today. The food was absolutely spectacular. It was authentic and yet so beautifully presented. We ordered cooked dishes, not dim sum and dumplings. The beef was exceptional and the sweet and sour fish was Devine. The vegetables were crunchy and the tofu seafood dish was very tasty. The atmosphere was wonderful with beautiful colours and coordinating tableware. The bathrooms were clean and comfortable and parking was easy to get too. All in all, we would go back again and again and again. A spectacular food joint.

    Meantime is my favorite restaurant in Hamilton -Newcastle, I usually go Tuesday Wednesday nights when trade is a little slower, however there is always more business than one server can handle, Hannah is a great server and Meantime owners should be glad they have her, but there should be 2 servers this close to Christmas.
