About Us
Peregrin Merewether is an elevated seaside dining destination, perched on Level One of the iconic Beach Hotel.
Drawing inspiration from Australia's beloved steel city, Peregrin pays homage to Newcastle's industrious past while celebrating the region's vibrant food culture.
Serving a menu inspired by up-to-date Australian flavours, it's a place where every occasion is an opportunity to feast—from weddings to spontaneous gatherings.
A place where everyone is welcome.
The newest addition, Bar Peregrin, adds another dimension to the venue.
With dimmed lights, a thoughtfully crafted cocktail menu and an inviting atmosphere, it seamlessly transitions from laid-back afternoon drinks overlooking Merewether Beach to a vibrant late-night destination.
