About The Blind Monk
The Blind Monk is a bar, restaurant and function venue at 76 Beaumont Street, Hamilton, Newcastle. Join us for craft beer, cocktails, spirits and fresh food in a relaxed, welcoming setting.
Our name is inspired by the story of a Benedictine monk who selected grapes blindfolded, guided by flavour and quality. We bring that same focus on taste to our food, drinks and hospitality.
