A unique dining destination is coming to Lake Macquarie, with Awaba House in Booragul expected to re-open its doors like never before.

The 20^th century gem is rising from the ashes after it was badly damaged by fire in 2019, promising an unparalleled dining experience.

While the historic facade will be maintained, a modern interior will welcome guests.

From the terrace and ceremony area, guests will be treated to breathtaking lakeside vistas that stretch as far as the eye can see, while inside, a sophisticated restaurant maintains water views.

Located adjacent to the city’s cultural hub, the Museum of Art and Culture yapang, the site blends rich history with modern art, offering a unique culinary experience. 

The project will deliver a vibrant dining experience for the city while creating a major drawcard for visitors and locals alike. It will include:

• a restaurant overlooking the lake
• a terrace area for outdoor dining
• a kitchen and cafe space
• a ceremony area
• new footpath and landscaping.
