Hen & Hops

Hen & Hops landed in Newcastle five years ago, as the long-nurtured dream of two cousins finally taking flight. With over 50 years of combined hospitality and business know-how, they've created a lively, casual roost where great chicken meets a well-kept selection of drink pairings, and the room hums with easy-going energy. The buzz peaks on Wing Wednesday and Feed Me Friday, when indulgence is positively encouraged.

Chicken's the headline act: crisp, juicy and made for sauce. The chef's top-secret recipes do the talking, from Hot Honey's sweet-heat gloss to Old Faithful's mellow sweep of barbecue and smoky glaze, clinging to wings begging to be shared. Platters and combos keep things flowing, whether it's a simple wing deal or a jubilant Keg of Wings at the centre of the table.

Comfort arrives with a wink. Dirty chips arrive joyfully over the top, smothered with mac and cheese in Return of the Mac or perfumed with truffle oil and parmesan in Truffle Shuffle.

The burger lineup balances rich flavour and inclusivity, from Buffalo Blue's fried chicken with cool blue cheese sauce to The Ubiquitous Vegan Option built on broad bean, spinach and red chilli. Pair your meal with something refreshing, settle in, and let the good times ripple.

Round up the flock and make a feast of it - your next wing fling is calling, so get your beak around it!
