About the Show
Taste & Talent
A night for local stars to shine
🍽️ One Kitchen, One Stage, Unlimited Heart
Welcome to Taste and Talent—a night where Newcastle’s favourite comfort food meets emerging local artists. No gimmicks. Just good vibes, real music, and a community that shows up for its own.
🐟 Simple Plates, Done Right
Our kitchen keeps it honest: crisp Barramundi Fish & Chips, golden Arancini, and seasonal specials made with market-fresh produce. Think “pub classics with pride,” served hot and paired with Hunter wine or craft beer.
🎤 A Real Stage for Rising Stars
Each month we feature 2–3 emerging acts—solo artists, indie trios, or singer-songwriters with something to say. They get a real stage, real lights, and an audience that actually listens.
This month’s lineup features: David Wildey opening the show, followed by Kalani Artis. More surprises may follow…
🤝 Community You Can Taste
Every ticket supports local music, local growers, and our team. Clap, connect, and share a meal with people who believe in good nights and great talent.
💌 Why This Beats the Couch
Streaming fills time. This fills your soul. Come for the food, stay for the music, leave feeling more connected to your city and its stories.
🚀 Book Your Spot & Bring a Mate
Seats go fast when the food’s this good and the vibe’s this real. Tell your mates, grab a table, and let’s build something special—one gig at a time.
