The Norman Hotel's legendary meat cabinet with more than 16 cuts of steak takes pride of place at the restaurant's entrance and their signature open grill takes centre stage of this beef-centric venue.

The grand hotel, a local landmark, was first built in 1889 and boasts six unique spaces, all with their individual tones and personalities. Offering an abundance of parking, this venue is a quick skip across the river from the CBD and accessible by bus, train and their very own Norman Express mini-bus.
