About The Erko Hotel

A laid-back corner pub where leafy courtyard tables meet classic counter meals and genuine hospitality. Inside, the timber bar serves craft pours alongside chicken parmigianas topped with smoked pulled pork, crisp chips, and pepper sauce steaks. It is an unpretentious neighbourhood staple where locals gather for pool or casual pints, dogs are welcomed both indoors and out with their own dedicated pet menu, and Thursdays invite you to grab a bottle from the adjoining shop with zero corkage.

  • Dog-friendly hospitality: Four-legged regulars are welcomed indoors and out with dedicated treats and pet dishes.
  • Bottle shop with zero corkage: Order a bottle straight from the attached shop to enjoy with dinner on Thursday nights with no corkage fee.
  • Courtyard and classic pub games: Spacious outdoor benches sit beneath shaded foliage beside pool tables and sports screens.
