📝🍽️ Doing the Sunday meal prep maths? Here’s a calculation worth considering:

Buy the ingredients. Cook the lunch. Pack the containers. Wash the dishes. Or…

Pop into The Mary Ellen for a $20 lunch special during the week and let us do the hard work.

Available Monday to Friday, 11:30AM–2PM.

Your future self, sitting down to a proper pub lunch instead of eating a sad desk salad, will thank you.

What’s your flavour? 🍸

Fresh and minty? Go the Mojito.
A little fiery? The Chilli Margarita has your name on it.
Classic and smooth? You can’t go past an Old Fashioned.

Whether you’re kicking off date night, catching up with friends or just celebrating the fact that it’s not Monday, there’s a cocktail waiting for you at The Mary Ellen.

And that’s just the beginning – our cocktail menu is packed with favourites, classics and a few delicious surprises. The hardest part is choosing just one.

It’s 3:30pm on a Friday.

The emails can wait until Monday. 🍷

Clock off properly with a glass of Scarborough Yellow Label Chardonnay – a Hunter Valley favourite for good reason.

Elegant, fresh and beautifully balanced, it delivers bright citrus and stone fruit flavours with a crisp mineral finish that somehow makes the end of a long week feel even better.

Whether you’re settling in for dinner, catching up with friends or simply celebrating making it to Friday, this is the pour you’ve earned.

🍷 Available by the glass or bottle

Bit of Mondayitis? Or maybe the weekend got the better of you? 😴🍻

Either way, we’ve got the cure.

Tonight is Schnitty Night from 5:30pm at The Mary Ellen, with a crispy, golden chicken schnitzel served with chips and salad for just $20.

No meal prep. No dishes. No staring into the fridge wondering to cook. Just a proper pub feed that makes Monday feel a little more manageable.

And if you can’t make it tonight, don’t stress – Thursday gets the schnitty treatment too.

Good news for Guinness lovers – Guinness is now on tap at The Mary Ellen. 🍀🍺

Smooth, creamy and poured with the patience it deserves, there’s nothing quite like watching that iconic pint settle before the first sip.

One pint. Two-part pour. Zero regrets.

Who’s having a Guinness this week?

A friendly heads-up from your local… 🍽️🍻

If you’re planning on joining us for dinner this weekend, we’d recommend booking ahead.

Winter weekends at The Mary Ellen are a busy affair, and between family dinners, catch-ups with friends, live music and footy on the screens, tables tend to disappear pretty quickly.

We’d hate for you to arrive hungry only to find your favourite table already taken.

✅ Book online in advance
✅ Skip the disappointment
✅ Focus on the important things, like what’s for dinner

We’ll save you a seat.
