About Blackbutt Hotel
The Blackbutt Hotel is a family-owned pub on Orchardtown Road in New Lambton, run by the same family since 1996. Alongside its restaurant, lounge bar, sports bar and beer garden, it has a functions team and three function spaces served from a dedicated functions bar. The Lounge suits intimate gatherings of up to 40 with comfortable seating. The Blackbutt Room is the mid-sized option for up to 80, often used for birthdays and corporate events. The Grand Function Room is the largest, holding up to 150 guests with its own private bar, a dance floor and audio-visual gear. All three come with flexible layouts, AV equipment, climate control and dedicated staff, and they can be set for a cocktail party or a formal seated dinner. The rooms have exposed brick, timber tables and wall-mounted screens. For food, cocktail-style events can have hot and cold canapes, gourmet finger food, grazing tables and dessert platters, while seated events can choose two or three-course menus, shared platters or a buffet, with dietary needs catered for. The chef can also put together a custom menu around your budget. Drinks packages start with beer and wine and step up to premium spirits and cocktails. The hotel has hosted birthdays, christenings, fundraisers, sports presentations and business conferences, and enquiries go through the form on its functions page.
