Hawke’s HQ – the award-winning Bob Hawke Beer and Leisure Centre – is like stepping back into the 1980s, just with better beer. Channelling the spirit of the late, great PM and brewery co-founder, the venue is a glorious, beautifully-designed throwback to classic Aussie RSLs – think wood panelling, honour boards, retro carpet and cricket commentary played in the toilets.

Grab a schooner at the bar beside Bob’s statue, play some pool or settle into the sunny beer garden out front. Whatever you choose, don’t miss dining at the amazing Lucky Prawn restaurant that serves up ‘80s Aussie-Chinese classics like prawn toast, honey king prawns and deep-fried Vienetta.
