The Red Lion Tavern, nestled along the scenic New England Highway at Glencoe, New South Wales, is gearing up to celebrate its first year of hearty hospitality on Saint Patrick’s weekend!

Petar and Jessica Grulovic, the dynamic duo behind this cozy Celtic haven, launched their new venture last year to celebrate St Patrick’s Day. 

They can hardly contain their excitement as they look back on a year brimming with laughter, camaraderie, and more than a few spirited shindigs. Taking the reins from the previous owners, the Grulovics infused the tavern with the unmistakable charm of their Celtic heritage, transforming it into a beloved gathering spot for locals and wanderers alike.

As the anniversary weekend approaches, the tavern crackles with anticipation, promising festivities that’ll have patrons raising their glasses and tapping their toes in celebration. A special Irish-themed menu awaits to tantalise taste buds and warm hearts.

Of course, let’s not forget the entertainment! Live music, courtesy of the talented Peter Campbell, will fill the air with melodies. And Irish dancer extraordinaire, Leah Manning will bring a bit of Emerald Isle magic to the festivities. Catch the action from March 15th to 17th. Bookings essential on 0409 776 906.

“We want people to walk in and feel like they’ve stepped into another country and back into another time,” beams Petar. “And it’s a very comforting, welcoming, spacious area.”

The tavern has also released an exclusive Red Lion Rewards program, giving back to their loyal customers.

Petar said: “Our loyalty card offers something complimentary to our returning customers every six meals, ranging from entrees to mains to gift vouchers, depending on the level of membership!”

And the best part? All the rewards are free for their wonderful customers. It’s a one-of-a-kind rewards program, exclusive to The Red Lion Tavern – a favourite weekend destination.

Fresh off their success at the Red Lion Tavern, Petar and Jessica have expanded their Celtic empire with the acquisition of The Croft — a beloved cultural centre and café nestled within the Australian Standing Stones in Glen Innes. It’s a double dose of Celtic charm that’s sure to keep the good times rolling!

So, mark your calendars, dust off your finest green attire, and join the Grulovics as they raise a glass to St Patrick’s Day, one unforgettable year, and many more to come at the Red Lion Tavern.
