MEET MITCH CLARK – OUR LOCAL LEGEND WITH ALL THE QUESTIONS!

One of the things we love about the Watering Hole Tavern is celebrating great local people, and Mitch Clark is certainly one of them!

A great local young bloke with a cheeky sense of humour, plenty of personality and a knack for keeping a room entertained.

Every Tuesday night, Mitch takes the microphone for Funky Bunch Trivia, putting our locals through their paces with plenty of laughs along the way.

We reckon it’s pretty special having a local lad bringing so much fun and energy to our Tuesday nights.

So come along, support Mitch, enjoy a great meal and a cold drink, and see if you’re as clever as you think you are!

Great prizes, plenty of laughs and a little friendly competition.

Good people. Great locals. That’s what a community pub is all about.

🏡 IF THESE WALLS COULD TALK… ❤️

Monbulk, we need your help!

We’re incredibly excited to introduce something very special at The Watering Hole Tavern…

✨ OUR HERITAGE ROOM! ✨

One thing we’ve come to appreciate since taking over The Watering Hole is just how much history lives within these walls.

Over the years, this building has been known by many names. From my research, here’s what I’ve uncovered so far:

🏠 Privately owned residence
🍻 Nancy Belle
🍻 Monbulk Tavern
🍻 Burnt Toast
🍻 Sandbar
🍻 Blarney’s Bar & Restaurant
🍻 The Hills
🍻 The B**r Engine
🍻 The Watering Hole

And now, under our family’s ownership, we’ve proudly kept the name The Watering Hole Tavern.

But here’s where we need YOU!

❤️ Have I missed any names?
❤️ Do you remember when the venue operated under a different name?
❤️ Did you work here, celebrate a milestone, meet your partner or make lifelong friendships here?
❤️ Do you have old photographs, menus, memorabilia or stories you’d be willing to share?

We’re creating a dedicated Heritage Room to celebrate the history of this building and the people who have made it such a special part of Monbulk.

Because while we might hold the keys today, this building belongs to the memories of generations of locals.

We’re simply the next custodians of its story.

So, Monbulk, let’s hear those stories!

👇 Share your memories, photographs and corrections in the comments.

If these walls could talk… imagine the stories they’d tell! ❤️🍻

Wow! Such an incredible performance tonight. Thank you Josh

🥹❤️ How cute is this?!

One of the little things that makes us smile at The Watering Hole Tavern is finding beautiful notes and drawings left behind when we’re cleaning the tables. 🥰

It’s these little surprises that remind us our tavern is more than just a place to enjoy a meal. It’s a place where memories are made, creativity is shared and little moments bring big smiles.

To our little artists and thoughtful customers, keep them coming! We absolutely LOVE finding them! 🎨❤️

New Napoli sauce is AMAZING 🤩!

🍗 PARMA OR PARMI? 🍗

We’re not getting involved in that argument. 😂

But here’s something we CAN agree on…

Have you ever had your Wednesday night Parma prepared by a Michelin-hat chef? 👨‍🍳

Neither have I.

Although I have tried his Napoli sauce… and let’s just say, you’re in for a treat. 🤔🔥

Tonight at The Watering Hole Tavern — come down, support local and put our new chef to the test.

And while you’re here… settle it for us:

❤️ SO INCREDIBLY PROUD OF MY TEAM! ❤️

Today was one of those days that reminded me just how lucky I am to have such an amazing team around me.

Not a moment’s hesitation when it came to rolling up their sleeves, getting their hands dirty and coming together for a working bee to give The Watering Hole Tavern a little refresh! 🔨🌿🍻

From inside to outside, we’ve been busy making changes, and I couldn’t be prouder of the effort, energy and enthusiasm everyone brought to the day.

This is what teamwork looks like. People who genuinely care about the place they’re helping to build. ❤️

We’re creating something special here, and we can’t wait to share it with you!

SOMETHING EXCITING IS BREWING AT THE WATERING HOLE TAVERN!

We're giving our b**r garden a little makeover!

We'll be CLOSED this Monday while we roll up our sleeves and make some exciting improvements to our outdoor area, just in time for OKTOBERFEST! 🍺🇩🇪

A bit of hard work, a few changes and hopefully not too many arguments over where things should go! 😂

We're looking forward to creating an even better space for everyone to relax, enjoy a cold b**r and share some good times.

Same great country pub, just getting better!

Thanks for your patience and support. We can't wait to show you what's coming!
