Fodor's Expert Review The Landing Bar & Kitchen

Enjoy the passing parade of tugboats and tankers coming and going in Newcastle Harbour from this buzzy bar and restaurant on the Honeysuckle strip. Locals come here for casual catch-ups over cocktails, pizzas, and shared plates on the deck, but the serious foodies head inside for the larger Mod Oz plates, mostly designed to share. The restaurant is famous for its charcuterie board and other dishes featuring locally grown meats, but the fish is just as good, especially the calamari fritters.
