Play Pokies at The Seagulls Nest Club Newport

Love this place!! Great, friendly staff and great vibe

Name of venue has changed from "Seagulls Nest" (afiliated with Willimastown Seagulls Football club) to the current "Newport Social club". I figure the Footy club is transitioning away from the "pokies" as they are acutely aware of the impact these machines have on thier locals and the stigma and hypocrisy of family clubs such as the Willimastown Football club have on their reputation and socail responsibility. What im not completly sure of is the Williamstown Football club offices are still situated basically above the venue and i dont know what or if the WFC still have and association with the venue? Have they accessed some legal loophole or set up some "shell company" to still reap the benefits of the substantial poker machines profits or have they sold them off and have nothing to do with them at all??? hmmmmm?
Anyway, so besides the name change and all the trophies and paraphanalia being removed from the venue...........the place is about the same as it has been for years! Same staff, same punters and locals turning up day in day out. As a pub it's solid. Drink specials and decent pub meals at decent prices. ( as compared to the Rifle club with no food or the Junction with overpriced craft beer ). The staff are generally friendly and helpful.

My mum left her pen there (sentimental pen) and the lady Casey I believe was so lovely and went and looked for it and found it!! Made my mum so happy. ☺️☺️ She put it aside for me to collect. They also loved how reasonable the prices were and how the vibe of the place was nice and chill! Thank you!!

omm nom nom nom nom, chicky schnitz and chips, best place currently to get it from after my last good place went south in quality, the chips are always worth it and the chicken is nicely cooked, could use a little more lemon on the side since it's a huge piece, also comes with salad that's nice but kinda wish it was optional and allowed for more chips or salad as a side choice. Op 1, salad only, 2, chips only, 3 both.

I think they might have a new chef the food is much better prices good and took a teenage boy he had no problem with the place the only regret I found the gravy delivered with the meals was all wrong and took up to 10 minutes to replace past all that good evening meal
