Everything for a Farewell Party

A send-off has its own rhythm. Someone's retiring after decades in the job, moving interstate, or heading overseas, and the people who turn up range from the boss to the neighbours. You want a place where the guest of honour can do the rounds, a moment for a few words, and a bar that keeps things easy. Around Gosford and Erina, plus one pick on the Woy Woy Peninsula, the coast's pubs and breweries cover that well.
Woodport Hotel in Erina is the one for a crowd: a waterside Garden Bar, an upstairs Loft with its own terrace and a Basement Bar, with the Garden Bar and Basement Bar each taking up to 400 cocktail-style and catering packages from $45 per person for 30 or more. Nearby, Six String Brewing Co. puts groups in an upstairs room over the brewhouse, with share platters from $35 per person.
In Gosford itself, Bay Road Brewing can be hired outright – the whole light-filled taproom, 19 beers on tap brewed on site, a beer garden and a food truck serving tacos and loaded fries.
