Staff were attentive and friendly, anticipating when we required service and when to give us space. Food: for entree we had the sriracha chicken which wAs lightly crumbled and had a hot sauce and a ranch sauce in the side. The chicken was tender and the hot sauce had a good 'bite' to it. We also tried the smashed pumpkin and tortilla chips- this was amazing, would definitely have this again!!! For mains we both had the crispy skin salmon and scallops. This was served with a fragrant broth which smelled divine and had a nice kick of chilli in this. The salmon was cooked perfectly, as were the scallops. Perhaps a little less pepper on top of the salmon. Overall, a great experience. Will be back.

It's no MoMA or Guggenheim but this compact museum gives a great insight into Newcastle's history including a wing dedicated to the BHP steel works that defined the city for so many years. While there's enough moving parts and a cafe on site to keep kidlets amused, the exhibitions themselves are not specifically targeted for a younger audience so it'll most likely go over their innocent heads.

Most of Newcastle history is nostalgic of the 20th century. There's a big section about the history of a department store and there's a lot of relics of consumerism. There's a section about military and section about sports. There's a section of an old commuter train in the back. There's some history on indigenous life. There's an old Ford Model T. Australia is a newer country without deep history, so this is rather small, but it's still well-done and professional.

Ticket and candy bar menu are still reasonably priced but not cheap enough for a 'you get what you pay for' mentality. A little TLC would go a long way.
