About Macquarie Arms Hotel

Pouring since 1815 along the Hawkesbury, this storied colonial landmark serves unpretentious counter meals and icy tap beer across weathered verandahs. Low doorways and historic brick fireplaces set an easy, timeless pace. Grab a front-row perch on the upstairs balcony as the afternoon river breeze rolls in, or settle near the street-level windows. Regulars drop in for generous rump steaks, crisp chicken schnitzels, and golden pot pies ladled with thick gravy alongside seasoned mash and peas.

  • Historic colonial pub: Dating back to 1815, the historic building features original fireplaces, colonial arches, and broad outdoor balconies overlooking the Hawkesbury.
  • Generous classic feeds: Crowds rely on sizable staples like sirloin steak, chicken parmi, and flaky pot pies served with mash and gravy.
  • Airy balcony seating: Spacious upstairs balconies and sunny verandahs offer breezy spots for cold beers and weekend live music.

Before you head over

Practical advice for navigating dining and heritage areas at Macquarie Arms Hotel

  • Watch low colonial archways

    Given the 1815 colonial architecture, taller visitors (over 170 cm) should take care as low archways require ducking when moving through original heritage doorways.

  • Rear and street parking

    A dedicated car park is available at the rear of the building alongside on-street parking options in Windsor, making road trip and weekend stops simple.

  • Balcony and verandah seating

    For open air and relaxation, head upstairs to the front balconies, or choose a street-level window seat or outdoor verandah when dining or grabbing a cold drink.
